In a thrilling matchup that had basketball fans on the edge of their seats, Caitlin Clark once again showcased her exceptional skills against the Mystics. Her performance was nothing short of spectacular, leaving spectators in awe of her talent and determination on the court. However, one spectator seemed to be slightly distracted from the action.

LSU’s head coach, Kim Mulkey, was spotted in the arena, ostensibly to witness Clark’s magic firsthand. But in a humorous twist, Mulkey appeared to be more engrossed in her bag of popcorn than in the game itself. As Clark dazzled with her scoring prowess and playmaking abilities, Mulkey’s attention was often diverted to her tasty snack, creating a light-hearted moment amidst the intense game.

Fans couldn’t help but notice the amusing contrast between Clark’s electrifying performance and Mulkey’s casual enjoyment of her popcorn. Social media quickly picked up on the scene, with memes and jokes circulating about Mulkey’s snack time during the high-stakes game.

While Mulkey’s focus might have been on her popcorn, there’s no doubt that Caitlin Clark’s performance left a lasting impression. The young star continues to rise, and even if Mulkey was momentarily distracted, she, like the rest of us, surely recognizes the brilliance of Clark’s game.

 

ALBANY, N.Y. — Kim Mulkey paid Caitlin Clark the ultimate compliment.

Mulkey and Clark had a moment in the handshake line and the LSU coach said she told Iowa’s star, “I sure am glad you’re leaving. Girl you’re something else. Never seen anything like it.”

Mulkey has called college basketball’s all-time scoring leader a generational player, and she’s proven that against LSU. The Tigers routed Iowa to win the national title last year despite Clark scoring 30. On Monday night, she was even better, scoring 41 points, including 27 from 3-point range. She also had 12 assists and seven rebounds.

“She can’t beat you by herself. It’s what she does to make those other teammates better,” Mulkey said.
