NBA Legend Isiah Thomas Makes Strong Caitlin Clark Statement
Indiana Fever guard Caitlin Clark is coming off a standout rookie season, where she averaged 19.2 points, 5.7 rebounds, and 8.4 assists per game. She also took home Rookie of the Year honors, earned a spot on the All-WNBA First Team, and was named an All-Star. But beyond the accolades, it's how she plays that truly sets her apart. Clark has brought a level of shooting to the women's game that few have ever seen. Advertisement In college, she shattered the Division I record for career three-pointers with 548. In the WNBA, she became the Fever's all-time single-season leader in made threes, was the fastest player in league history to hit 100 (34 games), and broke the rookie single-season record for most three-pointers made. Clark's ability to control the tempo, space the floor and get her teammates involved are also strengths of hers. Indiana Fever guard Caitlin Clark (22)Jeffrey Becker After Tuesday night's NBA playoff game between the Indiana Pacers and the Cleveland Cavaliers, NBA legend Isiah Thomas said on NBA TV's "GameTime" that Pacers star Tyrese Haliburton has been playing like Clark lately. Advertisement "His intellect for the game is on another level," Thomas said of Haliburton. "At the start of the game, when he walked in, I said, 'He's walking in like Caitlin Clark.' Right? Now, real talk, right? The way he played the game tonight, this is a Caitlin Clark-type of game — spreading the floor, right? He knocked down the 3, he kept the pace, and not only did he keep the pace, he controlled the tempo, he got everybody involved... he had the floor spread out, you know, he's shooting it from way, way, way, way, way, way, way, waaaay out there…" Thomas went on to say that Haliburton likely picked up parts of his game from watching Clark, just as all players do when they watch others. That wouldn't be a surprise, as Clark and Haliburton have formed a friendship since her arrival in Indiana and often show support by attending each other's games. "I say this in all sincerity," Thomas added. "We all steal a little from each other when we play against each other, when we watch somebody play, right? … I think Haliburton watching Caitlin, and their relationship, you know being fans of each other, I see a lot of her game in his game, right now.' In Game 5 of the Pacers-Cavaliers series, Haliburton shot 6-of-10 from three and finished with 31 points, six rebounds and eight assists.

New playground dedicated at Pulaski Park
ANDERSON — General Pulaski Park has been a part of the city of Anderson since 1930, and it recently received a $327,000 upgrade to the playground. Anderson Mayor Thomas Broderick Jr. said during a groundbreaking ceremony Thursday that in the early 1900s, a large Polish community located in the area. The city received a $91,500 grant from GameTime for the new playground equipment. The equipment is designed so that children with physical disabilities can climb the tower and use the attached slides. Residents will see new playground features, including the multi-level tower, new slides, climbing apparatuses, stand-alone spinners, walkways, new swings, and a variety of activity centers. The slide, donated by the Anderson Rotary in 2018 in honor of 100 years of service to the city's youth, will remain as a feature of the park's play area. 'This park is a popular attraction,' Broderick said. 'It has a walking trail, fish pond, basketball, tennis and pickleball courts.' He said the planned upgrades include an improvements to the restroom facilities at the park. Broderick said the city has purchased equipment for a park upgrade in the Meadowbrook area to be completed this summer. 'It takes a team effort,' he said. 'We have expanded the footprint of this park for added equipment.' Tom Tackett, maintenance supervisor for the Anderson Parks Department, said the playground equipment is known as the 'Dallas Dazzler,' which was on display at a national trade show. He said the city has worked with May and May, which has done installations of equipment on seven upgraded city parks recently. 'This is a heavily used park,' Tackett said. Kenny Davenport, a member of the Anderson Park Board, said the board has been active in pursuing park improvements. 'Ther is no greater joy than to see the playground for the kids to use,' he said. Broderick said the city has upgraded 25 of its 30 parks over the past nine years. He said the Park Department has an annual budget of $3.5 million, which at one time was only $800,000. Last year the city put in new equipment at Shadyside Park and the Geater Center, utilizing a grant opportunity.
