Caitlin Clark couldn’t help but steal the show at Iowa’s Big Ten Tournament game against Michigan State. The former Hawkeyes star was courtside, cheering alongside her boyfriend, Connor, when she found herself in a familiar situation, reacting with her college temper.
Known for her passionate (and often vocal) nature on the court, Clark didn’t hold back from the stands either. But this time, instead of arguing, she started trolling in a way only she could.
Her reaction quickly went viral, as fans couldn’t get enough of her playful antics. Earlier in the game, she had been caught slapping at the air in frustration and yelling with a classic Caitlin behavior. In a moment that had fans cracking up, she flashed a dramatic double thumbs up at the referee, a move that seemed equal parts approval and mockery.
The game itself was a big one for Iowa, as they took down No. 24-ranked Michigan State with a convincing 74-61 victory. Clark’s presence at the game, along with former coach Lisa Bluder, only added to the excitement, as Iowa fans loved seeing their legend still invested in the program.
While she’s no longer playing for Iowa, Clark’s energy and humor continue to make her a fan favorite. Her sarcastic thumbs-up moment quickly became a social media sensation, proving once again that she knows how to keep the spotlight on her-whether she’s on the court or in the crowd.
Even with her WNBA career on the rise, she remains connected to her alma mater, bringing her signature intensity to every game she attends.
