    Caitlin Clark was announced as one of five players to earn All-WNBA First Team honors on Wednesday. The Indiana Fever's No. 1 overall pick was the only rookie to make the team, and trailed only three players in First Team voting.

    Clark received 52 of a possible 67 First Team votes from a panel of WNBA sportswriters and broadcasters.

    2024 WNBA MVP A'ja Wilson was unanimously selected to the First Team with 67 votes, as was Minnesota Lynx superstar Napheesa Collier. 2023 WNBA MVP Breanna Stewart received 65 First Team Votes.

    Connecticut Sun guard Alyssa Thomas took the final First Team spot with 39 votes.

    "One of the best in the league. Congratulations to Caitlin Clark on being named to All-WNBA First Team," the Fever wrote in an announcement on X.

    This honor adds to the ever-growing list of WNBA accomplishments for Clark in her debut season. The All-Star point guard shattered countless all-time league records throughout her first season in Indianapolis, earning her a near-unanimous 2024 WNBA Rookie of the Year award.

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