    Indiana Fever star Caitlin Clark is now an icon in Indiana and was recently honored by residents in one of the most unique ways possible.

    As fall quickly approaches, an orchard in Hobart, Indiana, created a Clark tribute in its corn maze . From an overhead view, fans can see Clark holding a basketball in her Fever 22 jersey. They also included "We ❤️ Caitlin Clark."

    Clark was born and raised in West Des Moines, Iowa, where corn mazes are quite common. When asked about the tribute ahead of Wednesday's matchup with A'ja Wilson and the Las Vegas Aces, her reaction didn't disappoint.

    "I thought it was pretty cool," Clark said. "I grew up as a kid from the state of Iowa, go to pumpkin patch, go do those type of things in the fall."

    Clark then shared what it's like being in a corn maze.

    "Corn mazes are a lot more difficult than people probably think if you've never done one," she added. "It's very easy to get lost in there. Kinda scary if you're not with people. I guess if I have time after the season ends, maybe hopefully I can get there."

    Clark is having one of the best rookie seasons in WNBA history. On Wednesday, she hopes to break the all-time single-season assist record , which was previously set by Alyssa Thomas in 2023 with 316. Clark needs 11 more assists to pass her.

    She's also won three Rookie of the Month awards, one Eastern Conference Player of the Month award, three straight Eastern Conference Player of the Week awards, and she's in great shape to win the Rookie of the Year award.

    Tip-off against the Aces is set for 7:00 p.m. ET.
