Team USA is on the roll as they make their way to Belgium to win America another trophy. The 3-day training camp in Brooklyn, New York, for the Olympics has come to a happy ending. With the team not only focusing on the practices, a humorous comradery was visible as Phoenix Mercury superstar Diana Taurasi teased Kelsey Plum during an interview.

Taurasi, in a taunt, chanted Caitlin Clark. This teasing, however, was not just a humorous fling. In fact, Kelsey Plum, who currently holds the all-time scoring title in NCAA, is very close to losing it. No surprise there though, as Caitlin Clark is currently holding a whopping 3,462 points. This is only 65 points away from Kelsey’s collection of 3,527 points during her college basketball career with the Huskies.

Seems like during the training camp for the FIBA Olympics, Kelsey Plum and Diana Taurasi shared a friendly moment. While Kelsey was giving an interview and talking about her experience at the camp, the five-time Olympic gold medalist interrupted to chant Caitlin Clark’s name. In response, all Plum could do was laugh. She then continued with, “I love D. I don’t even remember what I was saying.”

Notably, many have already called that Caitlin will beat the score and reach the top spot against Michigan.

Will Caitlin Clark achieve the feat in Iowa’s game against Michigan?

Most basketball enthusiasts believe that Iowa’s mystic phenomenon Caitlin Clark will make it to the top of the ladder in just the next three games. However, this is not just a wild guess. In fact, Caitlin’s current numbers completely justify this assumption. At present, the tenacious No. 22 is scoring at an unreal average of 32.4 points per game. So, in all fairness, she can bridge the gap in just about two games only.

“Spirit of life lies in expression”. As a boy-next-door growing up in the mystic vibes of Ajmer, I would often wonder about the towering ballers’ ability to forge unity for a common goal. Big guys watching each other’s back and creating brouhaha and belligerence for the glory was a tempting feeling.
