    Caitlin Clark's Huge Global Impact Highlighted by Star Member of Greek Women's Basketball Team

    Caitlin Clark's impact on the WNBA in her first season in the league has been massive, and it's safe to say this is only the start for her.

    While Clark's role in helping grow women's basketball in the United States is clear as day, she is also a major talking point for sports fans all over the world.

    If it wasn't obvious enough, the 2024 Summer Olympics have further highlighted Clark's star power. Case in point: Despite the fact that Clark isn't even on Team USA, she was one of the main talking points in an interview Eleanna Christinaki, who is a member of the Greek women's basketball team, recently conducted.

    Clark wasn't included on Team USA's Olympic roster in a highly criticized decision, and while they kicked off their action with a 102-76 victory over Japan, it felt like the Indiana Fever star guard was still the talk of the games.

    For fans who aren't sure whether or not Clark's star extends beyond America, this short interview clip should prove that she easily is one of the sport's biggest stars at a global level.

    And while she is waiting like the rest of us for the WNBA to get back underway, chances are she will only continue to prove that she's a worldwide superstar once the Fever get back on the court.
