Caitlin Clark has never hidden her huge admiration for Taylor Swift, and it appears she’ll be celebrating the start of her WNBA career by listening to her favorite singer on Monday night.
The college basketball star was selected No. 1 overall by the Indiana Fever as she finally turns pro after setting the NCAA scoring record this season – and she appeared on ESPN to discuss how she’d celebrate.
Host LaChina Robinson asked the Iowa superstar which Taylor Swift song she’d choose to celebrate with, and the answer may come as a surprise.
Rather than picking an upbeat classic, Clark instead opted for her favorite – the lesser-known Enchanted, from Swift’s Speak Now album released in 2010.
Admitting her pick was ‘sad’, Clark stuck by it and insisted that she still wanted to go with it, given it’s her favorite song of all-time.

Perhaps fittingly, though, the lyrics talk about the night ‘sparkling’, while Clark wears an all-white Prada outfit with a shimmering silver top underneath.
Impressively, Clark became the first basketball player – male or female – to wear Prada at the Draft.
Clark accessorized the outfit with black shoes and a black bag as well as silver bracelets.
Topping it all off was a pair of orange colored sunglasses – possibly an homage to the colors of the WNBA logo.
Clark will go down as possibly the best female college basketball player of all-time as she prepares to go pro at the age of 22.
She is the NCAA Division I all-time leading scorer, and is a two-time national player of the year with the Hawkeyes.
