Caitlin Clark's historic rookie season made her status as one of women's basketball's greatest talents undeniable. Now, she's got the trophies to prove it, too.
The Fever phenom's maiden year in the professional game isn't done just yet. As the WNBA begins to unveil its most significant prizes — from MVP to All-WNBA teams — Clark finds her name in the news again and again. She already has a pile of broken records wallowing in her wake. Slowly but surely, she's accumulating hardware, as well.

With that, here's an exhaustive look at the awards Clark garnered during a rookie year unlike few others in WNBA history.
Caitlin Clark WNBA awards
- WNBA Peak Performer Award (as league leader in assists)
Clark hasn't yet garnered any official WNBA awards, save for the WNBA's Peak Performer prize, which goes to the league's statistical leader in one of three categories: points, rebounds or assists. Clark was the WNBA's assist leader in 2024, averaging 8.4 dimes a game.
She has, however, picked up a litany of AP prizes. Clark was named the AP's unanimous Rookie of the Year. Unsurprisingly, she also received a first-team All-Rookie nod. Clark was also unanimously selected to the AP's All-WNBA first team, joining A'ja Wilson, Breanna Stewart, Napheesa Collier and Kahleah Copper on the vaunted roster.

Caitlin Clark WNBA MVP voting
Clark may have not taken home the WNBA's most treasured prize, the MVP. She fared pretty well in voting, however. The Indiana standout placed fourth in MVP voting, only bested by unanimous winner Wilson, Collier and Stewart.
Clark failed to receive any first-place votes — those were all saved for Wilson. Voters also spurned her of second-place nominations, which almost entirely belonged to Collier. She did bag six third-place votes to go along with 26 fourth-place nods and 22 fifth-place selections.
