Everyone knows that Los Angeles Lakers superstar LeBron James is a good judge of talent. When someone gets The King's stamp of approval, it's a huge honor.
On Sunday, LeBron sang high praise for Iowa star Caitlin Clark, posting a photo of her on his Instagram Story with the caption: She got so much game! Tough! Safe to assume, the Lakers great is hyped, judging by the number of exclamation points on his post.
LeBron saw Clark ball out once again for no. 21 Iowa on Sunday, as they upset no. 6 Michigan with a dominating 104-80 victory. The sophomore guard exploded for 38 points to give the Hawkeyes a share of the regular season title in the Big Ten with no. 17 Ohio State.
The 20-year-old Clark sank eight of her 11 three-point attempts and added six rebounds, 11 assists, and three steals in yet another all-around showing. LeBron has been putting up across-the-board numbers as well for the Lakers, so he definitely appreciates Clark's versatility.
The Lakers forward isn't the first NBA stud to salute Clark, with Brooklyn Nets star Kevin Durant and Atlanta Hawks spitfire Trae Young also expressing their awe early this month.
LeBron has been one of the strong advocates of women's basketball in recent years, following the lead of Lakers legend Kobe Bryant. With LBJ's generous remark, Clark will only definitely get more motivated to represent female hoops and become the latest WNBA phenom.
