It's not often that Jeopardy! has sports categories, but it was awesome seeing Clark on the popular show.
She's getting ready for her second WNBA season in the spring and hopes to lead the Fever to even greater success. She was named TIME's Athlete of the Year in 2024 and was super thankful for it.
“I've been able to captivate so many people that have never watched women's sports, let alone women's basketball, and turn them into fans," Clark said, via TIME.
Clark will hope to get plenty more fans into women's basketball this season once the WNBA starts. She's inspired so many people in the country and is a great ambassador for women's sports both on and off the court.
It won't be long until Clark is an answer again on Jeopardy!.
