Indiana Fever star Caitlin Clark is being compared to a former NFL Pro Bowl signal-caller amid her roller-coaster rookie year.

Caitlin Clark has lived up to the sky-high expectations as the first overall pick in the 2024 WNBA Draft. She is the overwhelming favorite to win Rookie of the Year honors, averaging 16.7 points, 5.9 rebounds and 7.6 assists per contest through her first 23 games.

Though Indiana (9-14) has climbed back into the playoff picture following a woeful 2-9 start, it’s evident that Clark needs plenty of offensive support if the Fever are to emerge as a bonafide championship contender.

During the latest edition of “The Herd with Colin Cowherd”, FS1’s Colin Cowherd made an interesting comparison between Caitlin Clark and former Indianapolis Colts quarterback Andrew Luck.

“She reminds me of Andrew Luck — same city. Doesn’t have a lot of support. He comes in with terrible o-lines, has to win by shootout. At the time, breaks the rookie passing record…goes 11-5.”

Cowherd noted that Luck had nearly 4,400 passing yards and 28 total touchdowns as a rookie, but said people paid too much attention to his 18 interceptions.

Cowherd compared it to all the criticism Caitlin Clark receives because of her staggering number of turnovers. But he made a strong point that fast-paced players, including LeBron James and Stephen Curry, are prone to turning the ball over in large amounts.

Luck played for the Colts from 2012 to 2019, though he missed the entire 2017 season recovering from shoulder surgery. He played like a superstar for large stretches of his career, but a string of injuries limited him to 86 NFL games before Luck shockingly called it quits in 2019.

Caitlin Clark’s Turnover Count Shouldn’t Concern Anyone

Clark turns the ball over an average of 5.5 times per game. While that may be a concerning amount to some, she more than makes up for it with her elite scoring and play-making abilities.

The Fever look poised to end an eight-year playoff drought in 2024, and it’s largely thanks to Caitlin Clark’s contributions on offense. So yes, she can live with turning the ball over at a greater amount than most of her peers.

Grace Charis has the internet buzzing about her.

The Paige Spiranac rival is gaining a lot of traction for her latest video, which she shared on Instagram of herself playing the sport she loves.

Charis, a Newport Beach, California-born influencer, is going insanely viral after she showed off her golf swing in slow motion.

She did so in a tight-fitting pink top and short white skirt. To add even more magic to the post, Grace Charis played the video in slow motion to emphasize that she was not wearing a bra, which caused major bouncing during her swing.
