Caitlin Clark Inspires ‘Women’s Basketball Being More Exciting Than the Men’ Comment From KC Chiefs’ Chris Jones After Iowa Hawkeyes’ Win vs LSU Tigers

Court-side chaos or hardwood hysteria? Kansas City Chiefs defensive tackle Chris Jones just dropped a bombshell on social media. Brace yourselves, sports fans, because he’s claiming that women’s basketball games are more exhilarating than the men’s. And what’s fueling this fire? None other than the electrifying Caitlin Clark, the Iowa Hawkeyes’ sensational guard.

Her scoring prowess was on full display as she erupted for an astonishing 41 points, including a jaw-dropping barrage of nine three-pointers. But Clark wasn’t just about buckets; she also showcased playmaking wizardry, dishing out 12 assists to elevate her teammates. And this clash wasn’t merely a game—it was redemption. A year after falling to LSU in the NCAA Championship, Clark and her squad battled fiercely.

As the final buzzer sounded, the crowd held its collective breath. It was the Hawkeyes who triumphed, with a heart-pounding 94-87 scoreline. But the Hawkeyes’ star guard, Caitlin Clark, was the story on that day. With seconds left, she cemented her place in women’s basketball history. Their win secured them a spot in the Final Four, and Clark’s name echoed through the rafters of the arena.

Thus, as the stadium burst into cheers and hoots for the professional and display of raw skills on the court, the NFL star Chris Jones also couldn’t hold back. The mega star who recently signed a whopping $158 million deal with the Chiefs took to X and commented, “The women’s basketball games are more exciting than the men.” And perhaps he has consensus on the same, especially how much praise the NFL community has showered on Caitlin Clark for her phenomenal run.

Caitlin Clark is a phenom beyond the stats

Caitlin Clark’s sensational performances on the basketball court have not only captivated NCAA fans but have also resonated within the NFL community. Clark’s journey is one of shattering records and defying expectations. Her grandfather recalls her as a five-year-old with a basketball, already showcasing the anticipation and tenacity that would become her trademarks. At the University of Iowa, Clark’s prowess on the court has been nothing short of historic. She became the all-time leading scorer in NCAA basketball, surpassing Pete Maravich’s record with a staggering 3,667 points.

“I play this game because I love it. I play because it’s fun,” says Clark to Fox Sports, whose love for the game shines through every electrifying performance. Her stats are a testament to her dominance: leading Division I in scoring and assists, setting Big Ten single-season marks in points and assists, and becoming the first Division-I player to record 3,000+ points, 900+ assists, and 800+ rebounds in a career.

As the NFL and NCAA continue to intersect, figures like Clark become linchpins in a unified appreciation for athleticism and competition, regardless of the arena.

But it’s not just the numbers that make Clark special; it’s the way she plays the game.
