Ever since being drafted by the Indiana Fever this WNBA season, Caitlin Clark has caught the attention of basketball fans worldwide. Most recently, Clark and her Fever side defeated the Dallas Wings. The Fever (17-16) has surpassed .500 for the first time since 2016. Also, they are on a four-game winning run following Sunday’s huge win over the Dallas Wings.
During the game, Clark surpassed Tamika Catchings as the most points scored by a rookie in the franchise’s history. After the game, Clark and her teammate, Kelsey Mitchell, attended the post-match interview. During the interview, they came across Scoops Callahan, who asks questions like a 1920s basketball reporter. The rookie sensation was left speechless by what the reporter had to say.
Caitlin, Caitlin, after giving the Razzmatazz to those Windy City skyscrapers Friday night, what was the biggest wingding game you expected to find today in the shindig against these dynamos from Big D?

Some would say Caitlin Clark’s biggest challenge was posed by the reporter on Sunday. With her speechless expression, her side’s representative responded with, “Next question, please.” Callahan’s gimmick is to ask absurd questions to provoke a reaction. He has previously attempted to take LeBron James off guard.

Next time, Clark might come better prepared to face Callahan’s troll questions in the media room. As for the Indiana Fever, it remains to be seen how they will perform in their upcoming matches in the remainder of this WNBA season. They can make the playoffs. However, how deep of a run can they make remains the big question.

LeBron James has come across many questions in his illustrious basketball career. However, his interaction with troll reporter Scoops Callahan will always be a hilarious one for the fans. In 2019, James spoke with reporters at American Airlines Center before the Los Angeles Lakers’ game against the Dallas Mavericks. Notably, Callahan questioned James in such a way that was not usual to him.
Champ, let me ask you about tonight, how do you and your hard-boiled cagers from Lakerland plan to put the lid on Luka Doncic and his razzmatazz, hop skiddley-doo on the money-making end of the court?

LeBron James did not remain speechless like Caitlin Clark. He went along with the gimmick and answered the question in a hilarious manner.
Uh, I don’t know if we can stop the razzskazz skigeddy-doo, but we can just make it tough on [Doncic and Kristaps Porzingis].

This interaction between the two went viral among the NBA community. As for Callahan, he tries to be like Tom Gribble, a sports radio producer for ESPN Dallas’ Dennis and Cowlishaw Show. He would frequently begin his line of questions with the term “champ” as if he is speaking to an old-timey boxer. Also, while the phrase may appear absurd, extensive research goes into the script.
