As per a recent post on X (formerly Twitter) by the renowned NBA Central, the Iowa Hawkeyes are reportedly in the works to erect a statue in honor of Caitlin Clark, set to be unveiled next month.

This statue for the Iowa Hawkeyes’ standout player, Caitlin Clark, represents a significant honor. Clark’s outstanding performances of late have certainly merited such recognition. Her unwavering dedication and exceptional basketball skills have propelled her to dominate throughout this season.

In Sunday’s national championship game against South Carolina, Iowa Hawkeyes player Caitlin Clark delivered an impressive performance, particularly in the first quarter. Within the opening ten minutes of action in Cleveland, Clark showcased her prowess by scoring eighteen points. Notably, she sealed the quarter with a formidable 3-pointer, even facing off against the Gamecocks’ standout player, Kamilla Cardoso.

Clark’s achievement in this game extended beyond the court records as she surpassed the tournament point records previously held by Maya Moore and Chamique Holdsclaw, tallying an impressive 479 career tournament points. Notably, her performance in the championship game quarter marked the highest point total ever recorded by a player in such a crucial game.
