INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Caitlin Clark crashed the NBA’s playoff party Friday night — and drew a standing ovation from her new home fans. Twice.

She’s hoping to do it all over again in September in the same place.

The WNBA’s No. 1 overall draft pick and Division I’s career scoring leader revved up a raucous Indiana Pacers crowd by pumping the accelerator of a replica IndyCar before Game 3 against the Milwaukee Bucks.

It was Clark’s first public appearance on the Gainbridge Fieldhouse court since the Indiana Fever drafted her last week. Naturally, the nearly 17,000 fans broke into loud applause for the city’s newest superstar.

Clark did not speak but when she joined her new Fever teammates midway through the second quarter to toss T-shirts into the stands, veteran guard Erica Wheeler did.

“Playoffs!” Wheeler told the team’s emcee when asked about this season’s goal. “We want to be doing this and we’ve got the pieces. We want it to look like this every night.”
