Indiana Fever star Caitlin Clarkmay be a polarizing figure in the WNBA, but she has the support of NBA greats—most notably LeBron James, whom she calls “my favorite player of all time.”
Prior to Saturday’s WNBA season opener between the Chicago Sky and the Indiana Fever, the Los Angeles Lakers star dedicated an entire social media post to Clark. He wrote:“Good luck and DO YOU per usual this season!!! @caitlinclark22 ??????.”

Clark, who was alerted to the post after the Fever’s 93–58 victory over Angel Reese’s Chicago Sky, responded, “The greatest of all time. Thank you ?❤️??.” Clark admitted to rarely getting starstruck, but called her first time meeting James "incredible." LeBron also shared photos of the basketball powerhouses' first meeting as well.

Clark—who recently condemned alleged racist comments directed at Sky star Angel Reese during Saturday’s game—was quick to add that LeBron is a genuine supporter of the WNBA, stating, "He loves and appreciates the Fever and the way my teammates play.”
