soccer players usually dont run like nba players since there is defensive and offensive players it allows the defense/offense rest, where in the nba its constant work
@@seann3765you’re special bro. Soccer players run much longer distances than basketball players and only have a break at halftime. Midfielders and wingers do full field sprints the entire game
but despite all that she blew up big games..not really a characteristic of a goat bec great players win big games..watching the last minutes of her last 2 championships,she was like sitting duck waiting as the games came to end..besides,last year she so cocky taunting other players...nice to see her tasting her own medicine😂😂😂
@@dangaynhsblitzkrieg4799 and despite all that you’re still an overweight internet troll and she’s making millions of dollars. Giannis said it best: “Every year u work, u work towards something.

Soccer gives you not only footwork but vision as well. Being able to see open lanes to pass to teammates is one of the biggest perks you get from soccer. As a soccer player her vision is nothing different from soccer give and go’s. I see the open lanes just like she does and it’s awesome calling out these passes and the player actually seeing them. Most people take a while to develop that type of situational awareness. I love that she feeds her teammates! Let everybody eat!
@@uwemoyela5973pivoting your feet, leading the defender a different direction, being able to stay on your feet without tripping. There’s loads more. Kobe even took a ballet class for foot work
no. The biggest thing that transfers over from soccer is actually court vision. In soccer you have to have this awareness of where your teammates are. People who only play basketball don't necessarily develop this since you can technically go up and down the court by yourself whereas in soccer it's impossible. Give and go's, cuts, tik tak quick passing soccer is ESSENTIAL for you to be great. You can't simply dribble through an entire team and even if you can, it's impossible to do for an entire game. In basketball you technically can do that and so soccer players naturally have that court vision development. Actually I'm sure it is why caitlin is an incredible passer. I know this because it was only after I played soccer that I actually started becoming a more complete guard that can create for my team. Prior to that all I did was try and score.
Caitlin Clark is not a myth and legend sheeash. Your statement show you have haterd for white people. You can't stand that Caitlin Clark is very talented that she is great at doing alot of things. Some people with open mind admire that Caitlin Clark have the talent to great at alot of things.
As a person who has played soccer for 35+ years & coached for 20+ years, I can also tell you that it helps athletes with decision making, vision, & advantage recognition. It's not a mystery to me why so many European basketball players that come to the NBA have such high basketball IQ's, excellent court vision, & such quick recognition of when they and/or their teammates have achieved a positional advantage.
I started playing soccer at age six. Over the years i started playing every competitive sport i could. My footwork in middle school and high school was always steps ahead of my rivals. PARENTS GET YOUR CHILDREN INTO SOCCER ASAP IF YOU WANT THEM TO SHINE!!!! I EVEN STARTED MMA AT THE AGE OF 45 AND I STILL HAVE AMAZING FOOTWORK BECAUSE NOW IT COMES NATURAL. GET YOUR KIDS INTO SOCCER EARLY IM TELLING YA.
I still don’t understand how Americans , still haven’t figured out that Football skills (soccer) translates to Basketball very well . After Hakeem the Dream , Kobe Bryant, Steve Nash and all the Euro Players who came in after him , Giannis,Jokic, Doncic, etc the African Players Embiid, Siakam, Kuminga etc etc … it is Excellent for Footwork …
Bru thats impressive. Im from spain where both football and basketball are very popular and we have one of the best leagues in the world in both, and its not usual to see someone really good at both
She won't win a championship in the WNBA for at least 2 yrs. The team that drafted her got the #1 pick for a reason. She's gonna need a very good supporting help...
I grew up with Megan and Rachael Rapinto. They both would play basketball with us boys at recess and they were better then most of us at basketball. In 7th grade Megan came a few days to the mens school team as an assistant coach lmao. She was already on pre olympic traveling teams and better then all the guys at soccer. I'll never forget that. We all knew from an early age her and her sister were just different, usually better then all the guys at any sport
Who didn't know this lol her biggest inspiration was a soccer player she could have definitely went to college out of scholarship for soccer and could have went pro
You’re calling her a she because you can’t stand the fact that a yt woman is kicking all the others butts. You and yours are extremely poor losers. No class whatsoever.
Why are people acting like this is a new thing. If you didn’t know already, this should be a universal rule most people should know. If one athlete is incredible at one sport, the odds of them being at least great at another sport is very high. It’s not a Clark thing, it’s a phenomenal athlete thing.
It's like this she is too good for her team. She constantly puts triple digits in her score per game. If someone in her team match her same energy they will be unstoppable.she has a gift that is generational. If she joins a soccer team now she will ace that too and she also is super good at golf and baseball too. Now that's talent you are born with.
All that endurance running for soccer transfered fabulously for basketball
soccer players usually dont run like nba players since there is defensive and offensive players it allows the defense/offense rest, where in the nba its constant work
@@seann3765 true but I bet that built up endurance allows her to take less time to rest

I know them HS scouts were PISSED when she decided to play college call 😂
High school ball is trash. Good players don’t play it they in travel
Factos hs ball is caca its all about the private school leagues
Imagine her on the USWNT. That would be WILD.
She played in the off season , only for stamina.

very true. i grew up playing soccer and was amazed how good i was in creating plays when i tried it during my college years.
@@Chelseabear all it takes is vision. Chemistry makes the team unstoppable.
Soccer sux lol
@@mikemichaels2914 Yeah hate soccer as well.
Steve Nash was a perfect example of that
23 goals threw me. Then as a freshmen. Then in varsity. Then in 13 games. Wow 👌
Yup... any basketball player who played soccer or football (running back and QB) will tell you it helped their footwork immensely.
how can soccer help with footwork in basketball?
@@uwemoyela5973pivoting your feet, leading the defender a different direction, being able to stay on your feet without tripping. There’s loads more. Kobe even took a ballet class for foot work
@@Blaze-cn1dy change in pace, tripple threat moves, first steps are the biggest. Stop and go is everything soccer players do.
Embiid
Luka doncic played a lot if soccer too
From what I've seen alot of soccer players that come to basketball have a great dribble drive and good footwork tbh.
Goran Dragic & Luka Doncic
Nash, Kobe, Luka, Jokic…
@@Flowku Hakeem Olajuwon
Embiid

This shit is actually crazy! Homie a whole athletic freak 😂💪🏾

Myth!?? She's a stud
Steve Nash was also great at soccer, he was a 2 time MVP (should’ve been only one cause Kobe was insane in 05-06 but still 😅)
Hope shaq doesn’t see this
I think Hakeem's soccer experience is also a reason his footwork was good
As a former soccer myself, they used to call me Steve Nash when I hooped.
Kobe too
Shaq was unstoppable then, funny people forgot Kobe was the side kick lol

She was taller and more athletic then most prob as well. Thats pretty dope

I heard she's good at golf also
😂😂😂
She is as very gifted person.
literal generational talent 😭
That's an impressive record in soccer!
Most High School coaches encourages their players to play different sports in the off season.

Show me a game where Clark displays fancy footwork??
23 goals in 13 games is literally Ronaldo or Messi type performance....like seriously WTF 😂❤
Why do all these sports content creators talk with that same upwards inflection… Did YOU know …😂
lol
Or end with "and thats why.."
What she cant do is "not capture" Everyone's heart❤
The glaze is crazy and u k what Clark can’t do is besting curry In a 3 point contest
Did she also do swan dives for the swim team 😂 love for Caitlin
Bru thats impressive. Im from spain where both football and basketball are very popular and we have one of the best leagues in the world in both, and its not usual to see someone really good at both
Damn!! I wish we saw some of that footage
Thats a good and smart combination of sports. Shooting from distance needs that leg and core strength.
Thats like Chase Budinger. He was in the NBA for like 7 years. Disappeared, and then I saw him in the Olympics playing beach volleyball
Now we need Ant vs Catlin
I grew up with Caitlin and every always thought she would go pro in soccer. Glad we got proven wrong.
Glazing is insane for CC these days.
That explain why she has such good foot work and vision of the court!
She won't win a championship in the WNBA for at least 2 yrs. The team that drafted her got the #1 pick for a reason. She's gonna need a very good supporting help...
She might be winning sooner than later, almost #6 in the playoffs standings..
She’s pretty decent at soccer
Crazy how she can be good at both sports while the average WNBA player still missing open layups
😂😂😂😂
But they are masters in thugging other players 🤣
@@John-j6u6hI know. Are we surprised by their behaviour though?
I don’t get why a basketball professional league is full of players can’t make simple layups. It’s crazy. I see why their ratings was low for decades.
I've seen many NBA players miss layups
She’s really good at golf as well !
DOMINANT IS THE NEW WORD
no wonder her foot work and foot speed is at a different level.
Yeah she is a beast athlete!!
(What can’t Catlin do???) me: miss a shot lol
This young lady is definitely one of a kind.
She’s another great basketball player that played soccer. Now her footwork makes a lot more sense!!
She’s a great athlete and has a lot of determination.

Aaaahhhh..now i know why she is so quick and no other players match her speed.
This explains the footwork, speed, agility and endurance.
Caitlin is the GOAT in everything she does, period!
Phenomenal woman the wnba should be privileged to have her.
Now it all makes sense
To answer your question Caitlin Clark can’t lose my loyalty 🧡
Answer: Hockey 🏒
When an athlete switches sports, they bring their "moves" with them to the new sport, which can turn into a huge advantage for them.
Bro is doing tricks on it
I love Catlin Clark
Freakishly coordinated, good at all sports.
Cool video
Soccer translates nicely to Basketball. Kobie was good at soccer too.
What a champion
She was a good golfer also
helped her passing vision too lol
Who didn't know this lol her biggest inspiration was a soccer player she could have definitely went to college out of scholarship for soccer and could have went pro
I want her to be like BO GO pro in 2 sports. Let’s go #22
Leaks go crazy
The pre wrap she wears makes sense now. That’s a soccer thing.
Oh, that's why she loves sprinting 😂
Ow Damn.. she is an athletic beast
man you could have got us some highlights lol
Mexico and Europe football been real quiet since this dropped
Soccer❌ Football✅
Fancy footwork because she played football good report man
A mid-range pull-up jumper going left
She's beautiful
Iowa football needed her especially on offense
She would get hated even more 😂😂😂
She's a MACHINE!!!!!
sHE hit a 400 foot homerun for the baseball team. 😂
It was actually 450 feet.
SHE
@HannahDisponett All woman baby
You’re calling her a she because you can’t stand the fact that a yt woman is kicking all the others butts. You and yours are extremely poor losers. No class whatsoever.
And now shes a killer in golf
I love this girl❤❤❤
Man idk whats this hype all about, but im here for it
If she plays soccer she'll break the internet as the next Bo Jackson or Deion Sanders❤❤❤
I play soccer in basketball too
She really is the Steve Nash of the WNBA
Soccer and tennis are great sports for good fookwork foundation
She also plays golf.
CC is great at everything and can probably make some mean cookies. She's a lady...and that's why some people hate.
She's not bad in golf
If she’d gone to soccer she wouldn’t be getting this much hate lol

a literal boss 🔥
All the black WNBA players are like "ungh...whats Sock Her" 😂❤
Steve nash also.
She played sports in Boys leagues…so that’s how she set the bar ❤🎉😊
Pretty impressive ngl
No wonder she has very good foot speed and runs a lot
Carry her team to a W
I love her
Yea she good but this is one thing she can’t do is put a ring in her finger saying she won a championship
But she can look at her bank account and laugh at all the wnba players with rings on there fingers
It's always black racists hating on her.
It's like this she is too good for her team. She constantly puts triple digits in her score per game. If someone in her team match her same energy they will be unstoppable.she has a gift that is generational. If she joins a soccer team now she will ace that too and she also is super good at golf and baseball too. Now that's talent you are born with.
She can't play a hook shot against Brett Lee's bouncer.
I am willing to bet 20k
2 points for a dunk. Caitlin says, "Na, I'll take 3, thanks".
Now u kno her legs r under her strong legs n speed
She's an athlete
No duhh
And she's good at Golf too
