Caitlin Clark's stylish arrival steals the WNBA All-Star spotlight
The Indiana Fever rookie was ruled out of the game due to a groin injury that has been bothering her for several weeks. She also missed the league's 3-Point Contest despite being named a captain for the weekend.
Even off the court, Caitlin Clark makes headlines
But when Clark arrived at the event, all eyes were on her, and not for anything basketball-related.
Sporting a sharp black blazer over a crisp white button-down, she layered in a graphic tee tucked neatly into structured black shorts. A wide belt with a square pouch detail cinched her look together, and she completed the ensemble with black pointed-toe heels.
Social media lit up immediately after images of Clark's outfit surfaced.
'She stole the show,' one user wrote.
'Caitlin looks fantastic,' another fan added.
Others chimed in with praise, calling the outfit 'Prada-worthy' and comparing her entrance to that of a CEO showing up to run the league herself.

Injury Update
Clark has now missed 11 games this season, an unusual run of absences for a player who's known for her durability. Even with the missed time, she's still been producing at a high level, averaging 16.5 points, 5 rebounds, and nearly 9 assists per game.
The All-Star break gave her some added rest, but there's still no firm timetable on when she'll be back to full strength. For now, she's still managing the groin injury that forced her off the court during one of the league's biggest weekends.
Whether she's suited up or sidelined, one thing is clear: Caitlin Clark continues to be the main attraction.

Sinner lukewarm on expanded Cincinnati format
Jannik Sinner on Wednesday gave tepid approval to the 12-day jumbo version of the ATP-WTA Cincinnati Masters while confessing that he would actually prefer to keep the event to the usual one week length. The world number one will be defending his title at the final big event prior to the August 24 start of the US Open. Extending the ongoing Canada event - and Cincinnati - to 12 days with 96-player draws also means that WTA and ATP events in Canada will stage unorthodox finals on Thursday while play is beginning in Cincinnati. Sinner said that given the choice he would opt for the classic system of one-week events for an increasingly crowded calendar. "We (top players) cannot control everything," the Italian said. "The fans now have two weekends to hopefully watch some good tennis. "That is exactly what we need in this sport." But the Wimbledon champion who skipped Canada to rest after his triumph two weeks earlier in the final at the All England Club over Carlos Alcaraz added: "I would prefer a one-week event, it's something that I like. "But it's OK, I'm here and I'm very happy." Other top 10 players, including Novak Djokovic and Alex de Minaur, have also complained in recent days about the wholesale calendar rewrite which has the enthusiastic endorsement of the ATP and WTA. Sinner said that he enjoyed his time away from the courts, spending time at home with family and friends. "Then it was back to practice to try and get as ready as possible for the US swing." He said Wimbledon, where he beat Alcaraz after losing to the Spaniard at Roland Garros, "felt very, very special." str/bb
