The Indiana Fever hosted a meet-and-greet for the team's MVP season-ticket holders on Monday. Caitlin Clark interacted with a young fan during the session, garnering a lot of attention on social media.
The 2024 Rookie of the Year and Myisha Hines-Allen posed for photos with fans who lined up and waited for their turn. However, a young girl stole the spotlight when she approached Clark for the photo-op. She rushed to the superstar guard, hugged her left leg and didn't let go.
The adorable moment was captured on video, which the Fever posted on their Instagram account on Monday night.
Fans shared their wholesome reactions in the comments section.
“Aww how cute!!! I'd probably be doin the same thing! ❤️” one fan said.
‘I’d be the same way kid. If it wasn’t weird for an adult to do it . But no this is adorable,” a reaction read.
“Aww How adorable is that??? ” a user wrote.

“adorbs!!!!!” a fan commented.
“The cutest!” one comment read.
Clark has emerged as one of the most-loved WNBA players today. Her popularity continues to rise, and fans flock to arenas across the country to watch her play. The 24-year-old's combination of on-court tenacity and off-court charm has endeared her to them even more.
However, she has struggled in the last two games, which significantly contributed to Indiana losing both.
Clark averaged 11.0 points on 4-for-19 shooting, including 25.0% from beyond the arc. She also faced foul trouble, committing 4.5 per game.
The two-time All-Star and her team will return to action on Thursday for a marquee game against Angel Reese and the Atlanta Dream. It's expected to sell out at Gainbridge Fieldhouse, and it will be crucial for the Fever to end their skid ahead of a two-game road trip.
