The Los Angeles Sparks are prepared to replenish their team with the No. 2 and No. 4 picks in the upcoming WNBA draft. The draft is expected to be deep, with Caitlin Clark projected to be the No. 1 pick. Clark's remarkable achievements have garnered unprecedented attention, generating immense interest in women's basketball. The league anticipates a surge in ticket sales and viewership as Clark headlines a talented draft class.

Rebecca Lobo has been in the WNBA from the very beginning. The former New York Liberty center played in the league’s inaugural game in 1997, watched the WNBA become the longest-running women’s professional sports league in the United States and witnessed every draft class with stars like Diana Taurasi, Brittney Griner and Candace Parker. Yet even she is in awe of what Caitlin Clark has accomplished.

The 6-foot-4 senior won the Lisa Leslie Award as the country’s top center and was chosen Naismith defensive player of the year. The Pac-12 Conference player of the year led the country in blocked shots with 3.74 per game and averaged 17.4 points and 11.9 rebounds per game. As New Balance’s first women’s basketball player, Brink is also a recognizable star off the court.
