After injuring her ankle in a game against the Atlanta Dream on Monday, Caitlin Clark got to snatching the ankles of her opponents.

Clark rolled her ankle in the first quarter in a scary scene that saw the star point guard on the ground screaming out in pain.

She eventually made a return to the floor and put on a show for the fans at State Farm Arena in Atlanta.

Among her many highlights from the evening included an ankle-breaking behind-the-back dribble that dazzled and delighted.

Clark’s quick change of direction snatched the ankles of Dream guard Maya Caldwell.

It was one of those plays that looked amazing at full speed, but looked even better slowed down.

Clark didn’t just stop on a dime to get Caldwell out of her way, she then drove the lane and hit the contested layup to punctuate the play.

 

Fans of Clark’s lost their minds after the clip of the play surfaced – with many praising the former Iowa star.

‘whole crowd was shook,’ remarked on person on Twitter – noting how the audience reacted to the play.

Another person wrote, ‘This girl is soooo good. How anybody hates her or her game is unequivocally bizarre.’

‘I think she can play in the nba,’ wrote one account while another simply said, ‘She’s incredible.’

One account posted, ‘Her ball handling is so smooth.’ Another remarked, ‘WNBA GOAT in the making.’

Another decided to make a prediction on the Rookie of the Year race between Clark and Chicago Sky center Angel Reese, saying, ‘Just stop all this ROTY debates (laughing emoji) it’s not even close.’
