Caitlin Clark to Use Early WNBA Performances as Tryout for 2024 U.S. Olympic Team

Despite missing a recent U.S. training camp, Caitlin Clark's debut WNBA season will be closely monitored by Team USA selectors for potential Olympic selection.

Caitlin Clark, recently drafted by the Indiana Fever, will have her early WNBA games scrutinized as an audition for the U.S. women's Olympic basketball team.
Team USA's selection criteria include talent, positional fit, loyalty, and experience, as emphasized by selection committee chair Jennifer Rizzotti.
Clark was unable to attend the U.S. training camp due to her participation in the NCAA championship with Iowa, but this does not preclude her Olympic consideration.
The U.S. women's basketball team will finalize their roster for the Paris Olympics by June 1, following an exhibition game in July.
Clark, a standout performer at Iowa and a two-time national player of the year, aims to secure her spot amidst a competitive group of guards.
