Fox News · 2 hours ago

ESPN sideline reporter Holly Rowe was moved to tears before Tuesday's Indiana Fever versus Toronto Tempo game in Canada, reacting to the sold-out arena drawn largely by the presence of Fever star Caitlin Clark. Rowe, a longtime advocate for women's sports and the WNBA, shared a video of her emotional reaction, underscoring the scale of the crowds and attention Clark continues to generate for the league wherever she plays.

The nearly minute-long video Rowe posted showed shots of the packed arena alongside her visibly crying reaction before tip-off. It reflects a broader narrative around Clark's impact on the WNBA, with commentators crediting her for driving record ratings, sellout crowds and heightened mainstream interest in the league since her arrival.
