"Whole lotta love for these inspirational athletes 🥹🫶 #ngwsd"
Jalen Brunson, Mikal Bridges Cameron Payne, and a few others were seen giving their opinion on who they considered to be their female G.O.A.T (Greatest of All Time) in sports. Brunson named Serena Williams while Bridges chose Sue Bird. Josh Hart also gave his view on the subject naming A'ja Wilson as his G.O.A.T.

Although everyone rambled off a legendary name 6'8" forward Jacob Topping gave his vote to current WNBA star Caitlin Clark as he elaborated on her impact on women's sports:
"Right now? probably would be Caitlin Clark," Toppin said. "Because of the popularity and the viewership that she brings to the NBA," he continued to explain.
This is high praise for Caitlin Clark as she was deemed worthy to be amongst women who have left a lasting impact in their respective sports. The former Iowa star has been a great role model herself as her jersey was retired by the Iowa Hawkeyes on February 2 for her commitment to the program.
