The Scottsdale city planner isn't a shooter herself, but she sure has a great attitude.
Caitlin Clark, who works as a planning specialist for the City of Scottsdale, didn't grow up playing basketball but does resemble Iowa's Caitlin Clark.
Clark, who just began her job as a planning specialist for the City of Scottsdale in November, did make it to the NCAA Tournament in a way: Through a commercial alongside Caitlin Clark who plays basketball for the University of Iowa. Iowa's Caitlin Clark is the NCAA women’s all-time leading scorer this year. "I did see a message that caught my eye that said something along the lines of 'Caitlin Clark Commercial,' I thought, 'OK, let me read this,'" Clark said.
To see the finished product after the hours-long shoot, Caitlin Clark said it turned out better than she had expected. Caitlin Clark said she was a general basketball fan, especially the Suns and Mercury, but didn't used to know college basketball players by name. When evaluating whether to get involved in the commercial, Caitlin Clark said a motivating factor was drawing attention to women in sports.
