Indiana Fever rookie Caitlin Clark has proven to fans time and time against that she’s an excellent ambassador for the sport of basketball.

Her humility and diplomacy while speaking in public makes it so her words are never taken out of context. And this also makes it so she can connect with her massive fanbase in deep, meaningful ways.

And Clark showed this ability yet again, with a powerful message she sent to a teen who recently survived a shark attack in Florida.

“Hey Lulu, it’s Caitlin Clark. I wanted to reach out and send you some encouragement,” Clark said in the video.

“I know you’re going through a little rough patch right now, and I know that you’re a big fan of myself and a big fan of basketball,” Clark continued.

“So I wanted you to know that I’m thinking of you, that I’m praying for you, praying for your family. And I know that you’re a fighter… and you got this.”

Fans were feeling emotional as a result of the video.

“she’s truly an amazing person,” one X user wrote.

“I have more love for Caitlin Clark everyday!” said another.

Wholesome stuff from the rookie sensation.
