"Can't unsee it now": NBA fans react to viral tweet saying Alex Sarr looks like Caitlin Clark

NBA fans went wild after a post on X said that Alex Sarr looked like WNBA star Caitlin Clark. An account named "Raptors Report" posted a picture of Sarr waiting for his name to be called on the draft night with the caption:

"Don’t ask me to explain this, but Alex Sarr looks like Caitlin Clark."

Seeing the picture of the player selected at No. 2 by the Washington Wizards, NBA fans couldn't believe what they had seen.

"Lmfaooo CAN'T UNSEE IT NOW," a fan wrote.

"Can’t believe I’m cosigning this with a like+comment but when you're right you're right," another fan wrote.

One fan noted that both Clark and Sarr have similar blank stares.

"I see it. It’s that blank stare they have lol," a fan wrote.

Another fan hilariously said that Sarr looks more like Clark than the WNBA rookie herself.

"He looks more like Caitlin, than Caitlin," a fan wrote.

However, some fans didn't find any similarity in Clark's and Sarr's faces.

"He absolutely does not. This honestly is sad. U seriously typed that and hit post. Just really think about that for a second," a fan wrote.

"I don’t see it. Sometimes I see complexion or facial structures but not here," another wrote.

Washington Wizards selected Alex Sarr at No. 2 in 2024 NBA draft

The Washington Wizards selected Alex Sarr as the No. 2 overall in the 2024 NBA draft. He was selected after Zaccharie Risacher, the No. 1 pick by the Atlanta Hawks. Sarr was widely projected to go at No. 1. However, the Hawks chose to go with Risacher. It is the second straight year a Frenchman has gone as the first pick after Victor Wembanyama in 2023.

At 7-foot-1, Sarr has an excellent athletic body and also possesses great mobility on the floor. Offensively, Sarr is a good finisher at the rim, and he can have an impactful offensive game if he spends more time in the paint.

Though his three-point shot-making is not on the same level that teams aspire to, he can make a few jump shots. Moreover, Alex Sarr has a tendency to release his shot at the top, which would mean that he can be virtually impossible to block unless he has Wemby defending him.

However, it is not just the offense that Sarr will bring to the Wizards. He is an elite rim protector with a 7-foot-4 wingspan.

During his time with the Perth Wildcats in the NBL, Sarr averaged 9.4 points in just 17.3 minutes per game. He shot 51.6% from the floor while averaging 1.3 blocks per game.

Alex Sarr has been compared to Jaren Jackson Jr. for his exploit on defense and their similarity on offense.
