This week on “Saturday Night Live,” Caitlin Clark, a standout in women’s basketball, surprised viewers by taking a seat alongside Michael Che and Colin Jost during the “Weekend Update” segment. With her remarkable abilities, Clark is poised to be selected as the top pick in the 2024 WNBA Draft.

Beyond her prowess on the court, Clark also possesses a keen sense of humor, as evidenced by her witty banter with Che. During a recent interaction, Che, a comedian, engaged in playful back-and-forth with Clark, the NCAA’s record-breaking scorer. Clark teased about her jersey being retired by Iowa, prompting Che to share some of her own penned jokes.

Following their lighthearted exchange, Che extended his best wishes to Clark for her upcoming WNBA season, offering genuine encouragement for her basketball career ahead.
“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, a highly gifted rising star in basketball, holds immense promise for a remarkable career. Her burgeoning fan base and projections as the top pick for the Indiana Fever underscore her growing prominence.

During this season, Clark etched her name in history with an unprecedented single-day scoring record in NCAA Division I basketball. However, her standout performance couldn’t secure victory in the national championship game, where Dawn Staley’s South Carolina Gamecocks triumphed over Iowa.
