Indiana Fever star Caitlin Clark had quite a memorable return to Iowa for a preseason game against the Brazil women's national team.

Not only did Clark help her team beat Brazil 108-44—tallying 16 points, six rebounds, five assists and one block—but the Fever star also made memories by celebrating with her Indiana teammates and fans and sharing a moment with her rivals.

One of the most memorable interactions in the game, however, was when Clark approached a young fan who was holding some sort of bucket list sign.

The fan had three goals written on her cardboard: "Watch Caitlin at IOWA," "Go to a FEVER Game" and "Get a Picture & Autograph with CAITLIN CLARK."

Obviously, the kid achieved the first two things on her bucket list by attending the Fever-Brazil showdown. As for the third one, Clark made it a reality by signing her placard.

What happened next caught the attention of the Fever themselves, as the fan was left speechless by Clark's gesture—with her jaw even dropping in disbelief.

"this young fan’s reaction to Caitlin Clark checking off her bucket list is everything," the Fever wrote alongside a video of the moment.

Sure enough, the Fever's supporters appreciated the gesture as well, with many sharing how much they loved the exchange.

"What it’s all about!" a commenter wrote. Another one said, "Made that kid's day. Brilliant!!!"

A fan added, "True role model."

"It’s so wonderful to see," a supporter shared.

A fifth poster remarked, "She was so excited to just go to the game, and this made it 100 times better! Thank you for getting this on video for us!"

"This is so cute," a follower further stated.

For what it's worth, after Sunday's game, Clark talked about interacting with the young fans and making sure they had a memorable time at the game. According to the Fever star, she doesn't take the fans' various requests for granted.

"I was really excited to just get out there and play," Clark said after the game, per 247Sports. "Just seeing the amount of people—young girls and boys that stand there and scream for me to sign their stuff. I don't take that for granted. That's so cool. I would be lying to you if I thought that was normal and everybody gets to do that. They don't. I'm glad I can be a role model for them. They have a great impact on me too."
