WNBA star Caitlin Clark was recently spotted with an NBA player watching a game between the Wisconsin Badgers and Butler Bulldogs, sparking excitement and curiosity among fans. The sighting has led to a flurry of reactions on social media, with many dubbing them the Queen and King of Indiana as they share a moment together.
In an exciting matchup at the Indy Classic, the No. 20 Wisconsin Badgers triumphed over the Butler Bulldogs with an 83-74 victory. This win marked a significant turnaround for Wisconsin, snapping a three-game losing streak and boosting their record to 9-3. The Badgers showcased strong teamwork and resilience, notably in the first half, where they established a solid lead.
Nolan Winter led the charge for Wisconsin, scoring a season-high 20 points and grabbing eight rebounds. His performance was complemented by Steven Crowl, who added 18 points and six rebounds. Max Klesmit and John Tonje both contributed 11 points, demonstrating the depth of Wisconsin’s roster. The Badgers’ ability to capitalize on free throw opportunities was crucial, as they made 25 of 27 attempts throughout the game.
Butler, now 7-4, struggled to find their rhythm, particularly in the first half, where they fell behind 47-33 at halftime. Pierre Brooks was a standout for the Bulldogs, scoring 23 points, while Patrick McCaffery added 16 points and seven rebounds. Despite their efforts, Butler could not close the gap in the second half, never trailing by less than five points.
A key moment in the game came from Klesmit, who hit a buzzer-beating three-pointer to end the first half, igniting Wisconsin’s momentum. The Badgers maintained control throughout the second half, committing only three turnovers, which helped them secure the win.
