“Legendary Link Up”: Caitlin Clark, Jason Sudeikis, and Sue Bird’s Picture Goes Viral as Fans Show Love

Caitlin Clark has been a transitioning magnetic force for women’s basketball. She has not only changed people’s views but has also brought their eyes to the game. Hence, getting attention from huge celebrities like Jason Sudeikis and WNBA legend Sue Bird was only expected. The Ted Lasso actor who was previously all about the Kansas Jayhawks is now seen wherever Clark plays. Bird, too, has been an open advocate for Clark’s out-of-the-world talent on the floor. And now that the three stood alongside each other, it caused a frenzy online.

Recently, a photo of the three iconic personalities was dug out where the NCAA’s all-time leading scorer is rocking Iowa’s merch. However, this was not the first time that the three had met. Both Sudeikis and Bird have been booking their front seats for the Hawkeyes game. One that took the spotlight was when Iowa played against Bowling Green and won 99-65. The 22-year-old met the big guns after the win and shared a few words.

Sue Bird also went on record and confessed about how she loved Clark’s Logo-3s and deep threes at The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon. Just a couple of weeks ago, when Caitlin Clark received her second Wooden Award, Sudeikis ensured he was present. In fact, he also gifted the generational talent with an AFC Richmond jersey. The gesture turned heads since the basketball sensation was also quite a prodigy in soccer as well. Hence, with the continuous meetings of the three super-talented and respected people, fans love the trio.

Fans have “been waiting for this” as Caitlin Clark poses with the GOATS

There is no doubt about how madly the basketball world, well most of it, has been loving Clark. But her posing with other legends after a casual getaway speaks volumes. Bri Lewerke, a freelance photographer for big guns like Nike and Sports Illustrated, shared the photo saying that this connection of the three is something to look forward to.

A Clark fan suggested that her actions are all classy and wished the Indiana Fever rookie on her new journey. Remember when she gave a shout-out to Dawn Staley for being great at the SNL cameo even after losing to her team just a few days back? Certainly, the ever-growing contacts are all top-tier names. “Enjoy the ride! Your a Class Act Cait!”

One of the fans also brought everyone back to the LSU vs Iowa Elite Eight game when Sudeikis did the infamous “You can’t see me” hand gesture. Angel Reese did the same to Clark in their previous matchup during the 2023 Championship game when Iowa lost. Then too, he was sitting on the Hawkeyes’ side and rocking with the crowd as Caitlin Clark dropped some big shots everyone loves. Angel Reese’s college basketball career ended that night as Iowa advanced to the Final Four and the Tigers packed their bags to Baton Rouge.

The breaking news writer for Sports Illustrated Madison Williams too showed her appreciation for the post. She also expressed her desire to learn more about what the three legends would have talked about. “I can only imagine how cool these conversations were”

One women’s basketball fan also confessed that she had been looking forward to the day when these three met somewhere off of the court. Seems like the user had their wish come true on Wednesday. “ive been WAITING for this”

It is very refreshing to see a rookie hang out with the most popular faces of their respective arenas. Now as Caitlin Clark dons an Indiana jersey, it will be exciting to see how the 5x Olympic gold medalist and the celebrated actor stay behind the No. 22.
