Move aside, Angel Reese — Caitlin Clark has new beef with Cooper DeJean. Clark humbled DeJean quickly after he said he could beat her in a game of 1-on-1 basketball. In an interview with Up & Adams, they asked DeJean about all the chaos he caused for saying he could beat Clark. DeJean began praising his fellow University of Iowa alum, saying, “Obviously, Caitlin’s a special player; she’s done so much for women’s basketball and the University of Iowa and in general, so I have nothing but respect.”
After sharing his admiration for Clark, DeJean spilled the tea that the basketball star texted him and put him in his place after suggesting he could defeat her in a game. He said, “She took a shot back at me after, she texted me and said that she doesn’t think I can beat her.” DeJean then doubled down on his response and said once again he could beat out Clark in a 1v1 game.
Before you count DeJean out, you must know about his basketball background. The football player was a basketball star in high school, having scored over 1,800 points in his career. He explained to Up & Adams, “I used to play basketball … I really wanted to play basketball coming into high school, like I wanted to play basketball in college, but it didn’t work out. I stuck with football.” With his past skills on the court, people aren’t sure Clark can take on DeJean.
