Indiana Fever star Caitlin Clark sparked some fun conversation after a lively exchange during a TikTok Live session hosted by her former Iowa Hawkeye teammates, Gabbie Marshall and Jada Gyamfi. Clark’s candid comments ranged from playful critiques of Marshall’s headphones to sharing that she was playing Scrabble during the live stream.
These interactions highlight the friendly camaraderie between Clark and her former teammates, even after becoming a household name since moving to the WNBA. The Fever star maintains close ties with her Iowa friends, frequently participating in lighthearted social media exchanges that reflect their strong bonds.
Earlier this year, on the podcast “Talking Hawks with the VandeBergs,” Jada Gyamfi discussed her relationship with her Hawkeye seniors, emphasizing how she leaned on them for support. She noted that Clark’s humorous and friendly nature made it easy for them to connect.
“Caitlin was an easy one cause we could sit and laugh for hours. She’s really funny. I’m really funny and I knew her kind of coming into this,” she said back then.
As well as their interactions over social media, the former teammates continue to celebrate each other’s achievements. Iowa recently announced plans to retire Clark’s No. 22 jersey during a special ceremony at Carver-Hawkeye Arena on February 2. The announcement was met with widespread praise, including a cheeky comment from Gyamfi, who remarked: “She must’ve been really good!”
Clark’s NCAA career at Iowa was nothing short of historic as she went on to average 28.4 points and 8.2 assists per game over four years, and shooting 37.7% from beyond the arc. Her leadership propelled the Hawkeyes to three Big Ten championships and two NCAA title game appearances in 2023 and 2024.
“I’m forever proud to be a Hawkeye, and Iowa holds a special place in my heart that goes beyond basketball,” Clark said of her time at Iowa.

Amazon founder Jeff Bezos has emerged as the new front-runner to purchase one of the NFL’s most valuable franchises.
You may recall that Jeff Bezos had interest in purchasing the Washington Commanders from Dan Snyder, but they wound up selling the franchise to the Josh Harris-led group for $6.05 billion.
There have also been rumors about Bezos potentially buying the Seattle Seahawks. Since Paul Allen’s passing in 2018, the team has been run by his sister, Jody Allen.
Speculation is growing about New York Jets owner Woody Johnson potentially selling the team as the Jets finish out another disastrous season. The Jets entered 2024 with Super Bowl expectations, but Aaron Rodgers and company have been a giant disappointment with a 3-8 record.
According to Bovada, Jeff Bezos is now the betting favorite to purchase the Jets from Johnson and take over as their next owner. Johnson has owned the football organization since 2000.
