She notched a solid 15 points while also grabbing 9 rebounds and swatting away 2 shots. Brink’s ability to score inside and protect the rim makes her a formidable force in the paint.

Caitlin Clark, the electrifying Iowa guard drafted first overall by the Indiana Fever, demonstrated her all-around game.
