Caitlin Clark got a mention during Game 5 of the NBA Finals on Monday night.
The NBA season is officially over, with the Boston Celtics toppling the Dallas Mavericks in five games to win their 18th championship.
Doris Burke and Mike Breen were on the call for ESPN on the night, and the former would make a joke about the WNBA rookie during the broadcast.

The former Iowa star took another hard hit over the weekend, with rival Angel Reese swiping her in the head on a layup attempt.
It appears that Burke thinks the whole thing is overblown, given that she made light of it during an NBA Finals game.
