Caitlin Clark has been nothing short of a stat-stuffer throughout what has been an incredible rookie year. However, one aspect of the Indiana Fever star’s game that does not show up on the stat sheet is her elite handles.
There’s a highlight-reel-worthy clip of Clark’s eye-popping dribbling skills in virtually every single game. These come on top of her awe-inspiring passes and crowd-favorite long-distance triples.
Earlier this season, in a tough 101-93 loss against the Dallas Wings, Clark busted out an epic behind-the-back dribble that led to a perfect dime for teammate Katie Lou Samuelson. This exact play has now been given the slow-motion treatment which, unsurprisingly, has drawn some hyped reactions from the fans.
Look at the movement where the two players thought she was going to shoot a three than passed it to KTL which leaves her to a wide open three🐐… poetry in motion pic.twitter.com/z4dX8mF1LP

The actual assist wasn’t exactly show-stopping, but it’s the lead-up to the dime that caught the eye of more than a few fans on X, formerly Twitter.
“That crossover 🥶” a supporter said.
