Caitlin Clark’s unthinkable feat has made her a sensational newsmaker overnight. Iowa’s icon is now head of the table with 3,685 points to her name. The record-breaking day was celebrated by all and sundry. Even Nike couldn’t stop itself from “Just Do It” moment. 

The sporting giant could be seen colored in Clark’s aura as they put up an outdoor advertisement featuring the NCAA icon with her famous signature shot.

What did the advertisement have?

Clark could be seen potting her long-range three-pointer in the poster on one side of the street. On the other side, just a few metres away from the street, there rests a basket with Nike and Hawkeyes logo. The caption near the rim of the basket states: “This was never a long shot.”

The advertisement probably highlights the fact that it was never difficult for Clark to reach milestones in her career, especially with her exceptional long-range shooting. Clark had previously surpassed Kelsey Plum, becoming the all-time leading scorer in women’s basketball and it was just time that she did the same even capturing the all-time leading scorer tag in men’s and women’s basketball combined.

Nike also released a commercial of the same on their official Instagram handle that featured the many accolades that Clark has piled on in these four years and they tried to inspire their target audience to “Just do it.”
