Iowa women’s basketball superstar Caitlin Clark picked the best time to have her best game of the 2024 women’s NCAA tournament so far.
Clark scored 41 points, including nine buckets from 3-point range, to lead the Hawkeyes past LSU in Monday night’s Elite Eight game.
The win evens the score between the two basketball powerhouses after LSU won the national title last spring, and Clark is further establishing herself one of the best women’s basketball players of all time at the collegiate level with stellar performances like this on the big stage.
We’ve picked five 3-point shots from the game that particularly impressed us, ones that show just how smooth Clark’s shot is when she’s in the zone and how unstoppable she is at her best.
