Caitlin Clark using ‘catch and shoot’ style of play almost resonated with that of the Golden State Warriors star Stephen Curry.

Caitlin Clark makes a three-pointer similar to Stephen Curry

Indiana Fever rookie Caitlin Clark has taken the WNBA by storm relatively quickly. Clark was already a threat to the league with her great playmaking skills and elite shooting. However, it has become lethal when Clark makes everyone run circles with her ‘Curry-esque’ plays. The Fever star has shocked the WNBA fans with her electric basketball display.

Caitlin Clark and her Indiana Fever faced off against the Atlanta Dream in their recent matchup. Clark displayed excellent form throughout the game. She also demonstrated her ability to be effective on the court without always having the ball, excelling in pick-and-roll situations. Her style of play almost resonated with that of the Golden State Warriors star Stephen Curry.

Stephen Curry runs around attracting opposing defenders all the time. With a quick transition, Curry catches the ball and shoots a three-pointer. Everyone has seen it plenty of times and Caitlin Clark doing it in the WNBA remains equally impressive.

Despite a slow start, Clark has played a pivotal role for the Fever, helping them go on a winning streak after the All-Star break. Once she found her footing, Clark stunned the viewers, similar to how Curry stuns the NBA crowd. The Indiana Fever has not made the playoffs since 2016 and is now expected to give trouble to the other teams during the playoffs.

With each game, Caitlin Clark continues establishing herself as a central figure in the league, promising an exciting future for herself and women’s basketball. Now, with Angel Reese suffering a season-ending injury, Clark is almost guaranteed to win the Rookie of the Year. With Reese out of the discussion, Clark is now being compared with one of the best players in the WNBA today.

Caitlin Clark’s Curry-esque style of play has left the fans in shock

As her rookie season comes to a close, the comparisons between Clark and Reese have now elevated to comparisons between Clark and A’ja Wilson. Many have even compared Wilson and Clark to LeBron James and Stephen Curry of the WNBA. Wilson is one of the most versatile stars in the WNBA and a favorite for the MVP.

The WNBA fans are left in awe after seeing Clark and her catch-and-shoot playing style, which is similar to that of the Golden State Warriors superstar. Many fans have even called Clark a once-in-a-generation talent.

A’ja Wilson has been strongly contending for the MVP title, averaging 27.9 points, 11.9 rebounds, and 2.4 assists. Meanwhile, Clark is nearly guaranteed the Rookie of the Year award with averages of 19.0 points, 5.8 rebounds, and 8.4 assists. At the moment, Wilson still holds the upper hand over Clark, but the young Fever star is expected to improve and become a top contender in the MVP race in the coming years.

Indiana Fever Coach Drops Eye-Opening Remark on Caitlin Clark, Diana Taurasi.

Indiana Fever rookie Caitlin Clark has been everything fans thought she would be coming out of college.

Throughout her rookie season, Clark seems to break some sort of record in each and every game. She also has the Fever

Throughout her rookie season, Clark seems to break some sort of record in each and every game. She also has the Fever primed to make the WNBA playoffs for the first time since 2016.

In the latest episode of “Indiana Fever All-Access,” which gives fans a behind-the-scenes look at the team throughout the 2024 season, Clark was a heavy feature.

Coach Christie Sides made an appearance in the episode and compared one aspect of Clark’s game to Phoenix Mercury star Diana Taurasi and some NBA legends.

“When you talk about greats in this game, you know the Michael Jordan’s and the Kobe Bryant’s and the Steph Curry’s, they are putting her in that category,” Sides said. “The Diana Taurasi’s. She has that level of competitiveness in her… She wants everyone on her team to have that, and she has given that.”

Following the Olympic break, Clark has turned it up a notch, leading Indiana to a 6-1 record and the first winning record (17- 16) the Fever have had in over five years. The former Iowa Hawkeyes star also won her first Player of the Week award for her performances between August 15-25.

Clark’s competitiveness Sides mentioned has come out in every game this season. Sometimes, it can go too far, as Clark has picked up five technical fouls on the season. Taurasi has also shown off her competitive spirit throughout the season and has six techs on the year, eight if you include the two that were rescinded.

Taurasi has been with the Mercury since 2004, helping them win three WNBA championships. The former UConn Huskies star also had a WNBA MVP award and six Olympic gold medals on her resume.

With their win over the Dallas Wings on Sunday, the Fever have now won four straight. They will bring their winning streak back to Indianapolis for a six-game homestand that starts on Wednesday, August 4, against the Los Angeles Sparks.
