Caitlin Clark has many more years to go in the WNBA — and, by extension, a lot more nicknames to try on. This week, a major news outlet breathed some life into one particular moniker, drawing some delighted reactions from the fan base of the Indiana Fever guard.

On Monday, the New York Post published an Indiana Fever article that referred to Clark as a “point goddess”:
This nickname led to some enthusiastic responses from Clark’s supporters:

“Hey look at that …. The 40k old guard fans will be so mad,” one fan tweeted.
“fairs. but imo she doesn’t need a nickname, she already is The One And Only Caitlin MF Clark,” another fan tweeted.
“I like ‘the anomaly’ better,” another fan said.
“For now on. I have no problem the media calling Chelsey gray. Point Gawd… as long as they call CC Point Goddess. Have no problem with that,” another fan stated.

“Nope she’s CC or CC22. Don’t need any lame nickname ripped off from an NBA player,” another fan asserted before adding, “I like Luka’s ‘woman Steph Curry.'”
“Leave it to a New York Post article to always draw first blood,” another fan commented.
The term “Point Goddess,” of course, draws from Clark’s exemplary play as a point guard throughout her pro and college years. As the Iowa Hawkeyes’ court general, Clark became the Big Ten’s all-time leader in assists. In her debut season with the Fever, CC set the league’s single-season record for assists while also logging the most assists as a rookie.

On top of this, Clark is also a lethal scorer who put up 19.2 points per game in her rooki season with Indiana. It is this formidable combination of her intellect, creativity, and hot hand that has made her a magnet for affectionate nicknames.
