‘No Idea How That Went In’: Caitlin Clark Stuns Herself with Ridiculous Deep Three Over Breanna Stewart
In a moment that lit up the court and the internet, Caitlin Clark pulled up from well beyond the arc and drilled a ridiculous deep three over WNBA superstar Breanna Stewart — then burst into laughter.
It wasn’t just the distance that made jaws drop. It was the audacity, the timing, and Clark’s own stunned reaction that turned the shot into an instant viral moment.
“I have no idea how that went in,” Clark admitted after the game, still smiling. “Sometimes, you just shoot it and hope for the best.”
The shot came late in the second quarter, with Stewart pressing up high on defense. Clark took one quick dribble, sized her up, and let it fly from several feet behind the three-point line. Net. No hesitation. Pure confidence — or chaos, depending on who you ask.
Fans in the arena erupted. Social media followed. Even Stewart cracked a grin as she jogged back down the court. It was the kind of moment that defines Clark’s fearless brand of basketball — part sharpshooter, part showstopper.
“Caitlin’s range is just… different,” Stewart said postgame. “You can’t give her space, but even when you don’t, she can still hit it.”
Clark, now deep into her rookie season, continues to prove she belongs — and then some. Her deep threes have become a signature weapon, but this one felt different. It was the kind of shot that reminds everyone — including Clark herself — that she’s rewriting the rules of what’s possible on the court.
“It’s fun, you know?” she added. “You’ve got to enjoy those moments. That’s why we play.”
One thing’s for sure: if Clark keeps pulling off shots like that, the league — and its highlight reels — better stay ready.
