    On Saturday night, Caitlin Clark and the 2024 WNBA All-Star Team will face off against Team USA in a highly-anticipated matchup.

    Clark's arrival in the WNBA as the Indiana Fever's No. 1 overall pick has already resulted in several TV viewership records. And given the television history of the WNBA All-Star Game — Clark is poised to bring the league to new heights yet again on Saturday night.

    The most-watched WNBA All-Star Game in league history averaged 1.4 million viewers. Regular-season Fever games featuring Clark have reached that average mark 11 times at the midway point of the 2024 WNBA season.

    Clark's All-Star Game debut will almost certainly surpass the previous viewership record.

    12 WNBA games this season have exceeded 1 million viewers. 11 of those games featured Caitlin Clark and the Indiana Fever.

    The two most-watched games of the 2024 season were the two matchups between the Indiana Fever and Chicago Sky — which averaged 2.3 million and 2.25 million viewers each.

    The 2024 WNBA All-Star Game will tipoff at 8:30 p.m. ET on ESPN.
