Caitlin Clark, a standout in women’s basketball, delighted the “Saturday Night Live” audience this week with a surprise appearance alongside Michael Che and Colin Jost at the “Weekend Update” desk. With her exceptional skills, Clark is a strong contender to be the first overall pick in the 2024 WNBA Draft.

Beyond her prowess on the court, Clark showcased her sense of humor by delivering some jokes aimed at Che, much to his embarrassment in front of the entire nation.

At a recent event, comedian Michael Che engaged in a humorous exchange with Caitlin Clark, the NCAA’s all-time leading scorer. Clark jokingly mentioned Iowa retiring her jersey, prompting Che to respond. Then, Clark stepped in with some jokes she had written.

Following the lighthearted banter, Che extended well wishes to Clark for her upcoming WNBA season and shared a heartfelt message about her promising future in basketball.

“The Indiana Fever have the first pick in this Monday’s draft. This is a reminder that Indiana Fever is a WNBA team and not what Michael Che gave to dozens of women at Purdue University. Netflix’s top new show is ‘Ripley,’ featuring an eerie, unsettling performance by actor Andrew Scott. Critics say it’s the hardest to watch on Netflix since Michael Che’s special Shame the Devil.“

Caitlin Clark is already gaining popularity among fans

Caitlin Clark stands out as a remarkably talented young basketball player, poised for significant success. With a growing fan base, she’s anticipated to be chosen as the top pick by the Indiana Fever.

This season, Clark achieved a remarkable feat by setting a new record for the highest single-day scoring in NCAA Division I basketball. However, her journey was halted in the national championship game, where the South Carolina Gamecocks, under Coach Staley’s leadership, triumphed over Iowa.

The 2024 Women’s NBA Draft is scheduled to begin on Monday, April 15th, at 7:30 pm Eastern Time at the Brooklyn Academy of Music.
