Iowa star Caitlin Clark gifts Hawkeyes teammates new shoes for her birthday
Iowa star Caitlin Clark and her teammates celebrated her upcoming Jan. 22 birthday early, and Clark decided to do what everyone does at their own birthday party: give out gifts to their guests.
Clark gave each of her Hawkeyes teammates a pair of Nikes. The brand signed Clark, along with four other big-name college basketball stars like Bronny James and JuJu Watkins, in Oct. 2022.
A three-time All-American and two-time Big Ten Player of the Year, Clark is chasing history. The senior guard finished with 32 points in Iowa's 96-50 win over Wisconsin on Tuesday, giving her 3,306 career points, good for fourth in women's college basketball history. Kelsey Plum is first all-time with 3,527 career points.
Clark is averaging 31.0 points, 7.7 assists, 7.2 rebounds and 1.7 steals per game this season, while shooting 48.1/40.1/83.2. Iowa is 18-1 overall (7-0 Big Ten) this season, good for first in the conference.
Next up for Clark and the Hawkeyes is a road battle against No. 18 Ohio State on Sunday.
