Fans do not agree with ESPN’s 2025 ranking for Caitlin Clark and the Indiana Fever, and they are letting them know about it.

The league received an unprecedented amount of attention this year because of Clark and many other dynamic rookies.

The WNBA season finally came to an end after a thrilling five-game series that led to the New York Liberty being crowned 2024 WNBA Champions on Sunday night.

Soon afterward, on Monday, ESPN wasted no time producing their ‘Way-Too-Early WNBA Power Rankings’ for the 2025 season.

It was rather hard to ignore that the Worldwide Leader In Sports had Caitlin Clark’s Indiana Fever at No. 4.

Social media went off:

Indiana Fever Guard Caitlin Clark Is Primed To Do Great Things After Sensational Rookie Campaign

Caitlin Clark was once told that ‘reality was coming’ while she was in college dominating.

Earlier this month, the Indiana Fever guard was named the 2024 Kia WNBA Rookie of the Year as she looked reality in the face and laughed.

Clark received 66 of the 67 votes for Rookie of the Year.

The dynamic rookie delivered one of the best first-year seasons in league history to lead Indiana back to the playoffs.

Caitlin Clark averaged 19.2 points, 8.4 assists, and 5.7 rebounds per game in the regular season.

She ranked seventh in scoring and led the league in assists to earn the Peak Performer award. She also added 1.3 steals and nearly a block per game.

She was even talked about as a possible MVP and finished fourth in the MVP vote, which was won by A’ja Wilson.

Year two and more is only going to be better.
