Many had expected Clark to be the first pick after as she has helped attract record-breaking TV audiences and sellouts in arenas around the country in her final collegiate season.
“I got a little anxious there before the pick,” Clark said on the ESPN broadcast.
She later added: “I’ve dreamed of this moment since I was in second grade. It’s taken a lot of hard work, a lot of ups and downs, but more than anything, just trying to soak it in.”
Stanford’s Cameron Brink became the second overall pick for the LA Sparks and many other NCAA stars including Louisiana State University’s Angel Reese and South Carolina’s Kamilla Cardoso are taking their talents to the WNBA.
