Caitlin Clark Shares Classy Message About Why She Treats Fans So Well

Caitlin Clark understands the importance of treating fans well.

The former Iowa superstar is expected to be the first pick in the WNBA Draft Monday night after an insane run with the Hawkeyes. She ended her college career as the highest scoring player in major D1 basketball history.

Clark also made a name for herself by being a class act and taking plenty of time to sign autographs for young fans. She's not blind to the fact she's a great role model and can leave a positive impact on children.

Caitlin Clark talks interactions with fans.

"The people I idolized in my life were either professional women’s basketball players, professional soccer players, and that’s what I wanted to be growing up. And I think understanding how big of an impact that can have on a young girl’s life is super important," the phenom basketball player explained on "Today," according to Fox News.

She further explained, "I always try to make as much time as I can for them. And just to see them scream your name or have your jersey on — that’s something that never gets old."

The world could really use more athletes like Caitlin Clark. She elevated women's basketball, dominated on the court, will quickly become the face of the WNBA and she never let her incredible accomplishments get to her head.

The unbelievably talented guard always finds time for her young fans, and she deserves to be applauded for it. There's no doubt she's inspiring a new generation of young basketball players.

Props to Clark for continuing to be an awesome person and player. Hopefully, more athletes follow her lead when it comes to interacting with young fans.
