WNBA rookie sensation and college scoring leader Caitlin Clark is set to miss the upcoming Paris Olympics as she has been left off the Team USA roster, a source familiar with the decision disclosed.

The official announcement of the team is pending, but it’s expected to include 12 veteran players such as Diana Taurasi, A'ja Wilson, and Breanna Stewart, excluding Clark.

Clark’s absence comes despite her recent standout performance in the WNBA, where she has been named Rookie of the Month for May, showcasing her potential in the professional league.

Although Clark’s omission can be justified based on her on-court performance, her presence in the league has undeniably brought significant attention and attendance to WNBA games, transforming the league’s popularity.

Notable WNBA stars like Sue Bird, Brittney Griner, and Diana Taurasi are expected to be part of the Team USA roster for the Paris Olympics, continuing their impressive international careers.

The decision to exclude Clark from the Olympic squad was first reported by a reputable sports news outlet.
