Christian rapper Lecrae was treated to a courtside spectacle in Atlanta as Caitlin Clark dazzled during the Indiana Fever’s game against the Atlanta Dream. Clark’s jaw-dropping crossover left her defender on the floor, and Lecrae’s stunned reaction quickly became a viral sensation on WNBA Twitter.
Rapper’s Reaction to Clark’s Move Takes Over Social Media
“CAITLIN BEHIND THE BACK AND HE WAS GAGGED,” one fan posted on X (formerly Twitter), sharing a video clip that amassed nearly 400,000 views. The clip captured Lecrae’s “stank face” as he witnessed Clark’s slick behind-the-back crossover, a reaction that resonated with many fans online.
“Had me doing the same reaction lmao,” one user commented, while another noted, “You just don’t see that every night. That was awesome ball.” In the slow-motion replay, Clark added flair by sticking out her tongue as she eyed the basket, channeling her inner Michael Jordan or Kobe Bryant, her basketball idol.
“But she can’t create her own shot,” one fan quipped sarcastically, highlighting Clark’s ability to silence critics with her undeniable skill. Clark, who ranks 10th in the WNBA in scoring with 18.0 points per game, is leading all rookies, with Angel Reese of the Chicago Sky following at 13.5 PPG.

Clark’s performance against the Dream was stellar, as she put up 19 points, 7 rebounds, and 7 assists with only two turnovers. Despite a late push from the Dream and a brief injury scare, the Fever held on for an 84-79 victory. This win marked the Fever’s 14th victory of the season, their highest total since 2016 when they won 17 games. With 10 games left in the season, Clark is leading the charge for Indiana’s best season in nearly a decade.
The Cost of Watching Caitlin Clark Courtside
Lecrae wasn’t just there for the atmosphere—he paid top dollar for his front-row view of Caitlin Clark’s magic.
