Caitlin Clark Addresses Possible Music Collab with LSU's Flau'jae Johnson
Caitlin Clark and Flau'jae Johnson may have battled on the court as fierce rivals, but off the hardwood, their mutual respect runs deep — and apparently, even into the studio.
Clark, an Iowa Hawkeyes legend now starring for the Indiana Fever in the WNBA, was recently asked about getting name-dropped in one of Flau'jae's latest tracks and whether she'd consider joining the LSU Tigers guard-turned-rapper for a song.

Clark's reply was candid, appreciative and entirely on-brand.
'No. I would never. I would leave that to her,' Clark responded with a smile. 'She's incredible, but it was awesome. Her music is really great. She's so talented, and I've honestly been a really big fan of hers since we played them at LSU.'

The shout-out in question? A line from Flau'jae's teaser track where she rapped: 'Double C's on my jacket like I'm Caitlin Clark.' She tagged Clark when posting the preview, and Clark immediately took notice — replying on her Instagram story with a one-word reaction: 'Elite,' alongside fire emojis.
Clark knew a shoutout was coming her way from Flau'jae
In the recent interview, Clark revealed she actually knew it was coming. 'She told me a while back, actually, that she was putting me in a song. So I've kind of been waiting for it. … She really was actually putting me in a song.'
Despite Clark's clear respect and admiration for Flau'jae's music, she has no plans to trade in her sneakers for a mic. 'Her music is really good,' Clark said, adding that even her friends and family texted her excitedly after the track dropped.
