Caitlin Clark's Areas of Improvement Came With Purpose

You're a hooper. That resonated. So, you know, I've been saying it, knowing that she spoke to Barack Obama didn't change my line of questioning, but I wanted to make sure that I asked Caitlin Clark a basketball specific question about some things I've noticed on the basketball court. And if I do say so myself, it did look like she appreciated that question as well. Caitlin, a basketball question for you. I've noticed you finishing through contact a lot this year and also relocating recently, getting the ball back after you've given it up. What aspect of your game do you think you've improved upon the most this season? Yeah, I think the relocation stuff is a lot of stuff that I worked on in the offseason. I think at times I get caught a lot past freestanding. So the more I can do that, it's just hard to guard. And obviously with Kelsey Mitchell, she makes it really easy in her ability to pass and then call back to me. And then finishing through contact, I think a lot of that comes with, you know, how my body's changed over the course of when the league, like this is my third year now. And I was like, look back at when I first entered the league and even my last year of college and I was a lot more frail than I am now. So I think just strength, core strength, like that was a big focus point for me coming into this season. And, you know, you want to look for contacts and not just get to the free throw line, but make the bucket and be able to finish through contact. I feel like I've done a decent job of that to this point. But just trying to continue to improve and work in those ways. But I think the relocation shots, I mean, like one of my favorite players and somebody that I love in my game effort is Steph Curry. And like, that's something he's really good at. You never see him stop looking. He's always one place to the next and, you know, wants to find a way to get his next shot. So I think that's an area I can still continue to improve in, but it's definitely a focus for me.
