Recently, Jamie Lee Curtis, the legendary actress known for her roles in *Halloween* and *Freaky Friday*, expressed her admiration for the Indiana Fever star in an unexpected way.
In an interview with *People Magazine*, Curtis was asked which celebrity she would want to “Freaky Friday” switch lives with for a day.

Receiving such high praise from a Hollywood heavyweight like Curtis is a testament to Clark’s impact on and off the court. The Fever rookie has captivated fans with her brilliant performances, earning her a spot in the WNBA Rookie of the Year conversation alongside Angel Reese of the Chicago Sky.
Clark’s on-court success is undeniable. She’s on track to break two major rookie records—most three-pointers made and most assists in a single season. Currently, she’s averaging 17.8 points, 5.8 rebounds, and 8.3 assists per game, with improved shooting efficiency as the season progresses.
Jamie Lee Curtis, an actress celebrated for her iconic roles and often referred to as the “Scream Queen,” has had an illustrious career in film and television. From her starring role in the *Halloween* franchise to her performances in *Knives Out* and *The Bear*, Curtis continues to be a force in Hollywood. Her recent role in the movie adaptation of the video game *Borderlands* is just the latest in a long list of achievements.
Given Curtis’s storied career, it’s surprising that she’d want to trade lives with anyone, even for a day. But Clark’s extraordinary skills and poise on the basketball court have clearly made a lasting impression on the Hollywood legend.
