“Obviously, the perfect time is during practice with the time change in Paris, so maybe Christie [Sides] should cancel practice so I can watch more of the Olympics.”

Caitlin Clark doesn’t feel ‘bummed’ for not being in the national team
When asked if she felt “bummed” about not being on the team, the 22-year-old basketball prodigy expressed, “I think the break’s definitely been good. I mean, it’s certainly cool. It’s like a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity that you’re only going to ever get in four years. So, I wouldn’t say I’m necessarily bummed.”
“I think it gives you something to work for, for sure, and something to dream of,” she added.
“And [in] four years, you can be there, and four years comes fast,” she continued. “It makes me think of like that’s your time in college. And I feel like I was just a freshman in college. So it shows you that you know you got to start working now if you want that to be your dream in four years.”
