Deep down, we are all still children, and Caitlin Clark proved that on Wednesday night.
For the first time since the 2021 regular season, the Indiana Fever beat the Connecticut Sun, 84-80, snapping the franchise’s 11-game losing streak.
After the game, Clark, Lexie Hull, and Kelsey Mitchell met with the media for the post-game press conference, at which point things really got crazy.
Indiana Fever star Lexie Hull was speaking on the tremendous game she had — 17 points, eight rebounds, and three assists — when she made an off-handed comment.
“I was just trying to get my hands on as many balls as I could and take advantage of…” Lexie Hull stated as she began to laugh.
Caitlin Clark, as well as Kelsey Mitchell, also burst into laughter as well.

Clark put her hands on her face, “Oh, Lex,” she said.
Kelsey Mitchell scored 23 points, Caitlin Clark had 19 points, five rebounds, and five assists, and the Indiana Fever continued on their torrid pace to stay in the playoff race.
Caitlin Clark Sets WNBA Rookie Record As Fever Beat Sun
We are running out of ways to describe just how great Caitlin Clark has been in her rookie season.
Clark set the record for most made 3-pointers by a WNBA record, surpassing the mark initially set by the Atlanta Dream’s Rhyne Howard in 2022.
She had a rough shooting night, going 3-of-12 from downtown, but she finished with 19 points, five rebounds, and five assists, and Indiana picked up win no. 15.
She is also the first WNBA player to have at least 15 points, five rebounds, and five assists in six consecutive WNBA games, according to ESPN.
