Caitlin Clark, a standout player for the Indiana Fever, has become one of the most recognized athletes not only in women’s basketball but across all professional sports.
At just 22 years old, Clark has solidified her place as one of the highest-earning sports figures of today. Forbes recently acknowledged her as one of the honorees in their 30 Under 30 list for 2025, highlighting the most influential individuals under 30 across various fields. Clark is listed in the sports category alongside top athletes like NBA champion Jayson Tatum, Olympic gold medalist Mondo Duplantis, and NBA All-Star Jalen Brunson. The Fever quickly celebrated her achievement, posting a congratulatory message on X: “Congratulations to Caitlin Clark for being named to the 2025 @Forbes 30 Under 30 sports category!” Notably, no other WNBA player made the list, and Clark was one of only two NBA stars (along with Tatum and Brunson) to be recognized.
This accomplishment follows an incredible rookie season for Clark, where she earned Rookie of the Year honors with the Fever. She averaged 19.2 points, 5.7 rebounds, 8.4 assists (leading the league), and 1.3 steals per game, while hitting 3.0 three-pointers per contest. Clark also set the WNBA’s single-game assists record with 19 against the Dallas Wings on July 17.
