Caitlin Clark has been in the limelight for quite some time now for her marvelous command on the court and the achievements that followed. From surpassing the former LSU shooting guard Pete Maravich and becoming the all-time leading scorer of the NCAA to getting praised by NBA greats like LeBron James and Stephen Curry, the Iowa Hawkeyes sensation has been frequently grabbing attention.
The soon-to-be WNBA player has grabbed the attention of the fans after adding another accomplishment to her catalogue of success and this time the reason is the late NBA legend Kobe Bryant.
Caitlin Clark recreates iconic Kobe Bryant picture
Caitlin Clark has now won the Big Ten championship three times in a row. The Iowa Hawkeyes faced the Nebraska Cornhuskers in the finals, which ended in a 94-89 victory for the former, with Clark contributing 34 points and winning the Big Ten Tournament MVP title for the third time, the most by any player since 1995. After the game, the 22-year-old recreated an iconic Kobe Bryant moment.
Caitlin posed with the trophy exactly as Kobe posed with the NBA championship trophy on June 15, 2001, in a shower stall with his hand over his eyes. In addition to that, she was wearing Nike shoes from the Black Mamba’s shoe line collection. To add icing on the cake, Vanessa Bryant congratulated her by sharing a story on Instagram for her achievement.
Iowa were 13 points down, with Caitlin having probably the worst half of her basketball career with only 4 points in the first half. Clark ended the game with 34 points along with 12 assists. 7 rebounds and 3 steals. “This is definitely the hardest one, It’s three in a row but it’s by far the hardest. I’m just so proud of our group,” said a proud Caitlin after the game.
Fans react to Caitlin’s viral picture
Caitlin Clark’s achievements have made her stand out. The NBA community has always applauded her but with Kobe Bryant‘s pose, this time things went in different directions. While some fans appreciated her accolade, others felt her feat was not worth the Lakers legend’s pose. NBA fans have shared their opinions on X. Here are some of the selected tweets and comments:
A fan, taking a dig at her for posing the same as Kobe without the championship trophy, commented, “Should’ve saved it for the title. Imagine Kobe doing this after winning the Pacific Division.” According to their geographical locations, the NBA teams are aligned in different divisions, which improves the scheduling of matches.
Calling her the female greatest basketball player, a fan wrote, “she’s the female goat already and she’s still in college.“
Someone commented, pointing out her poor performance, “Struggling Against unranked teams and farming big 10 championships whilst shot chucking with horrible efficiency.“
Someone wrote, appreciating the recreation of the legendary pose, “Probably the best remake. She’s destined for greatness.“
While another fan commented, being surprised seeing the picture since Kobe’s title win was in a pro league, “Bro WDF a big 10 vs an actual championship not even the NATTY.“
Caitlin Clark has one of the most prosperous college basketball careers, which goes without saying and is gradually ticking all her boxes before appearing for the 2024 WNBA draft that she recently declared.
