It was one of the multiple jaw-dropping plays from Caitlin Clark in her preseason WNBA debut for the Indiana Fever: the rookie guard got defended by fellow first-year player Jacy Sheldon at the three point line.
But as Clark made it seem like she was going to drive to the hoop, she stopped and maybe got a shoulder or a hand on Sheldon, who fell to the court and might have been looking for a call that wasn’t there. Clark stepped back and calmly nailed a three.
The photo of Sheldon in midair was captured by Gregory Shamus and WOW it’s perfect:
Here’s the play:
