ICYMI: In a touching exchange, Caitlin Clark declares herself to be …
Caitlin Clark’s fanbase has surged dramatically over the last two years, but during her latest interaction, the tables turned, and she became the fan. Her enthusiasm was evident on Sunday night when the Indiana Fever defeated the Seattle Storm, 92-75, at Gainbridge Fieldhouse. In Indiana’s second game after the 2024 Paris Olympic break, Clark contributed significantly to the win, scoring 23 points, grabbing five rebounds, and dishing out nine assists.
After the game, Clark eagerly rushed to greet Lil Freddy, the miniature version of the Fever mascot. Freddy Fever, the main mascot, soon joined them at center court. The trio shared a heartfelt embrace, and Clark showed her affection for Lil Freddy. They even snapped a photo together. With a smile, Clark said, “You know I’m your biggest fan. Did you hear that? Should we take a picture?”
