During the Los Angeles Lakers’ victory over the Indiana Pacers to end their six-game road trip, there was a a very popular celebrity in the building who might have gone unnoticed to many. WNBA star Caitlin Clark of the Indiana Fever was in attendance, but not as a fan. Rather, she worked as a photographer during the game and got plenty of good pictures of superstars LeBron James and Luka Doncic.
One photo of James in particular got plenty of attention as Clark posted on her Instagram page and in an appearance on NBA’s broadcast, he called the 41-year-old the greatest of all-time while discussing what it was like to photograph the Lakers superstar, via NBA Courtside:
Caitlin Clark on taking photos of LeBron James during Lakers vs Pacers:
"The King. That's my GOAT…. I swear we made eye contact so I sat down the camera and I smiled at him and he just looked at me with a straight face" https://t.co/TFKKtZ0ph2 pic.twitter.com/YkxoTLixyX

Clark, of course, is one of the biggest women’s basketball stars in the world. But even she is in awe of James, whom she feels is the greatest basketball player of all-time and she isn’t alone in that sentiment.
Sometimes it is great to see stars and celebrities be just normal fans like the average person and they are being more creative in how they can enjoy these games and make moments. Photography is a great way for stars like Clark to experience and create new moments and she was able to get some outstanding shots of James that will live on forever.
What James has been able to do throughout his career is inspiring to many and a lot of current basketball stars, male and female, grew up watching and rooting for him. Soon enough, Clark will be back on the court in uniform herself as the WNBA season will be kicking off where she will look to lead the Fever to their first championship since 2012 and, like James, there will be a lot of eyes watching to see if she can deliver.
Could LeBron James join Warriors this offseason?
If James plays a 24th NBA season next year it is unclear whether that will be with the Lakers or elsewhere as he will be an unrestricted free agent this summer. One destination that seems to be emerging as a legitimate possibility is him joining the Golden State Warriors, a team he has been linked to for the last handful of years.
