A classy move by the Aces guard to give Caitlin Clark some time to recover.
Here’s a really awesome move made by someone playing against Caitlin Clark.
The Indiana Fever rookie fell to the floor on Tuesday night in the loss to the Las Vegas Aces, tripping over her own feet. Maybe Jackie Young thought Clark hurt herself, so as Clark slowly tied her shoe as she recovered, Young stood next to her and did the same, tying one sneaker and then the other.
That delayed play from continuing, and you could see Young chatting with Clark, and people think it was Young checking in on her to make sure she was OK.
Class act all around:
Jackie Young made sure Caitlin Clark was okay, intentionally tying her shoe to give Clark time to get up

Loved this vet move from Jackie Young at the beginning of the game
She bends down to tie her shoe intentionally to give Caitlin time to get up and make sure she’s good

On the air I immediately mentioned how first class this was by #JackieYoung to give #CaitlinClark a chance to re-group. It was a vet move and a sportsmanship move.
