'How lucky am I?': Caitlin Clark makes Women's FIBA World Cup debut Friday with Team USA
The U.S. has dominated the women’s FIBA World Cup for nearly two decades, winning the last four titles and eight of the last 10. A young American roster led by the trio of Caitlin Clark, Paige Bueckers and Angel Reese now complement U.S. stalwart Breanna Stewart as the team looks to win its fifth straight championship. The Americans will be missing four-time WNBA MVP A’ja Wilson, who the team announced Monday would miss the World Cup along with Kelsey Plum. They were replaced by newcomers Sonia Citron and Kiki Iriafen. Clark, the former Iowa Hawkeyes star, is averaging 22.5 points, 8.4 assists and 3.9 rebounds through 36 games in her third WNBA season.
