Caitlin Clark is 1 of 1: ‘We’ve never seen a woman play like this’

Caitlin Clark is the best offensive player we’ve seen in women’s college basketball in at least the past three decades. Her points total, while massive and now unmatched, only tells part of the story. While we’ve seen incredible scorers — Lynette Woodard, Kelsey Plum, Maya Moore, Jackie Stiles, Brittney Griner — we’ve NEVER seen a woman play like this.
