Another day, another can’t-miss Caitlin Clark highlight.
Clark led the Iowa Hawkeyes to a dominant 96–71 win over Purdue Wednesday night and posted a triple-double in the process, with 26 points, 10 rebounds and 10 assists. It was her second straight triple-double and third in the Hawkeyes’ last five games. But Clark’s best highlight of the night was on a shot that didn’t even count.
With time winding down in the second quarter, Purdue attempted to foul Clark intentionally. As the Boilermaker defender reached in, Clark heaved a shot towards the rim just a step or two insde halfcourt and somehow swished it home, sending even Purdue fans into a frenzy. Unfortunately, the referees ruled that the foul had been committed before the shot, nullifying what would have been a remarkable highlight.
