IOWA HAWKEYES CAITLIN CLARK THROUGH THE YEARS!! 8th Grade to College Star!

[@rcourtney3]

her passing and playmaking ability is wildly underrated. People focus on all the deep threes but theirs nobody I would want more handling the ball in a pick and roll.

[@Abletodoit675]

Happy birthday 🎂

[@Abletodoit675]

Piece out

[@purpleperc1012]

Also very good rebounder for her position

[@davidjaerobins4180]

Right and you said pick & roll, I think about how Iowa had defeated #1 South Carolina in the FF.

[@trhansen3244]

Widely regarded as the best passer in women's college basketball.

[@brodyanders318]

She went to my rival highschool where my brothers went too and they told me she would practice everyday men’s and women’s practices. She was considered the best in the state long before she became to fame so cool she’s becoming an absolute legend.

[@billcook4768]

Gotta love the high school coaches who thought, “she’s a point guard, we’ll have our 5’1” point guard defend her.”

[@TheCampGod]

Most of the highschool clips the females run a lot of zone defenses. Which typically have the point guard at one of the front line positions.

[@casilatino]

I think the arc of her shot and the backspin on the ball are perfect.

[@Michael-of6zf]

She is the only person I know that looks the same in 8th grade to college. By the way not everyone knows she got a postup game too.

[@devinsmith4684]

We’re proud to have such an exceptional student-athlete at Iowa. She could’ve transferred anywhere but chooses to remain here… I love taking my daughters to watch her lead the team 😊

[@iliketurtles536]

I watch her play on TV and have no idea how she makes some of those shots. We watched her in the playoffs last year and I thought she was more entertaining to watch on the court than any other basketball player at any level right now (men and women).

At the highschool range Caitlin's jumper definitely had an awkward hitch at release, as well as an off-hand that needed to be fixed. It's insane how quickly she fixed that before she finished her freshman college season. Can't wait to see how she does in the league

[@sherina5043]

It’s huge props to her shooting coaches at the Hawkeye program. A lot of the women have a fluid one motion jumpshot.

omg every single one of the clips from the game at 3:46 are clinics. Right from the go the first clip someone in crowd yells "overrated" as CC shoots a stepback pull up middie off the handle and absolutely darts it in, then each successive clip is Caitlyn answering the hecklers' accusations in the coldest way possible. She is just on another level. She's inspiring generations of young women to believe in themselves and ultimately revolutionizing women's' basketball. CC is so fun to watch now, but it's hard not to be hyped for the future of the sport considering the amount of eyeballs on it right now witnessing greatness.

[@TomdeSabla]

Great talent. I am curious that no one seems to pick her up early enough. She appears to get a lot of uncontested top of the key jumpers with the defender backing off. Did they not get the memo that she has range? Also, on about half her contested drives you can see her pushing off. Now having said all that her handles are really good and her step back is lethal. And then there's that shot... Wow
