Caitlin Clark Makes Opinion of Celtics Clear Ahead of Fever-Sun in Boston<\/a> originally appeared on Athlon Sports<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Caitlin Clark has grown accustomed to being the first to accomplish something on a basketball court. Just 12 games into her sophomore WNBA season, Clark continues to set and break records, sometimes on a nightly basis.<\/p>\n

However, on Tuesday, Clark did something for the first time off the court.<\/p>\n

Clark’s Indiana Fever take on the Connecticut Sun on Tuesday night. While much of the storyline has surrounded the dust-up these two teams had the last time they faced each other, this game was moved to a bigger venue, TD Garden, in the city of Boston.<\/p>\n

Clark, 23, during her pregame comments on Tuesday, admitted this was her first trip to the city of Boston.<\/p>\n

Naturally, as she revealed this information, she proceeded to make her thoughts on the Boston Celtics perfectly clear.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is my first time to Boston, so obviously if you\u2019re a basketball fan, you grew up a fan, you love the Celtics\u2026well, maybe I guess you could hate them,” Clark said jokingly.<\/p>\n

Clark went on to explain what the Celtics organization has meant to her as well as the impact their history of winning has had on the world.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think for myself, the Celtics is one of the premier organizations in the NBA. You always grew up knowing what the Celtics are about. Obviously having won a championship two years ago now, it\u2019s kinda cool just to be in this building and surround yourself with the greatness that is played in this arena, Clark said.\u201d<\/p>\n

Clark continued by discussing the impact this game, being played in an NBA arena, in a city without a WNBA presence, has on the league and its fans.<\/p>\n

“I think it’s a great opportunity for people in this city or fans around the area to come and support a W team here, and I know their game last year had great attendance and great energy…For myself, you don’t take these opportunities for granted,” Clark said.<\/p>\n
