NEW YORK CITY- Iowa guard Caitlin Clark has been making history left and right these days, with the most notable example being her becoming the all-time leader in points in NCAA history.

On Monday, Clark was selected with the No. 1 pick of the WNBA Draft by the Indiana Fever. It was a pick that everyone knew was coming, and she may have just turned the Fever into the most popular franchise in the league.

With her impact on the game being so great, drawing a record amount of viewers every time she plays and helping the sport grow in unbelievable fashion, Clark was also able to make history off the court. As revealed in a social media post, Clark became the first draftee in WNBA or NBA history to be dressed by Prada.

Clark led the Hawkeyes to a second-straight title appearance this season, and averaged a career-high 31.6 points and 8.9 assists, while also grabbing 7.4 rebounds per game. Clark will make her WNBA debut on May 14 against the Connecticut Sun.
