The fans packed Carver-Hawkeye Arena on the University of Iowa campus Sunday to watch Caitlin Clark return to the school where she set plenty of college records.
Her Indiana Fever team played an exhibition game against the Brazilian National Team, just under two weeks before the 2025 WNBA season begins.
The Fever led 87-29 late in the third quarter when Clark decided to do what she does best: pull up from deep. This time, she took the inbound after a made basket by the Brazil National Team and immediately launched from 36 feet. She drained it as the crowd went wild.
Fans on social media were quick to react to the near half-court shot. Many of them couldn't believe it.
"Clark is must watch TV!!! Go Fever," one fan said.
"THIS WAS SO BEAUTIFUL! CAITLIN IS AMAZING," another wrote.
"She coming for the crown! That's my goat," added another.
"The ONE and ONLY," said a fan.
"MY DEMON IS SO BACK," wrote one.
"are you kidding me," said another fan.

Clark’s shot was just a few feet behind the spot where she famously broke the all-time Division I women’s scoring record in college. To honor that moment, Iowa marked the floor with a small "22"—her jersey number—right where it happened.
Clark finished with 16 points, six rebounds and five assists in the 108-44 win.
Coming into the game, the 2024 WNBA Rookie of the Year warned her Fever teammates, who had never played at Carver-Hawkeye Arena before, just how loud the arena would be.
"I told my teammates this is the loudest arena they’re ever going to play in, so I better make a few shots to get them on their feet," Clark said.
