Caitlin Clark helps draw largest WNBA regular-season crowd in 25 years

In the intense arena of basketball, Caitlin Clark is known for her competitive edge and fierce gameplay. However, a recent interview with her parents offers a glimpse into a different side of the rising star.

Anne, Caitlin’s mother, shared with The Gazette a perspective of her daughter that diverges from the on-court persona. “She just has that fun, spunky attitude,” Anne revealed. “She lets them say it’s OK to laugh. You really see that at home.”

Brent, Caitlin’s father, echoed this sentiment, highlighting qualities that shine both on and off the court. “I think she’s just very outgoing and confident as a person,” he remarked. “I think that’s apparent on the court; she plays with a lot of confidence.”

He elaborated further, noting Caitlin’s unwavering self-assurance in her abilities. “There’s not a shot she doesn’t think she can take or make,” Brent added. “And she just kind of plays with a swagger, she doesn’t care if she’s missing shots, she trusts that the next one’s going to go in.”

This insight paints a fuller picture of Caitlin Clark, revealing a blend of competitive spirit and a relaxed, jovial demeanor off the court. As she continues to make waves in the basketball world, Caitlin’s multifaceted personality adds depth to her rising star status.
