Caitlin Clark got a mention during Game 5 of the NBA Finals on Monday night.
The NBA season is officially over, with the Boston Celtics toppling the Dallas Mavericks in five games to win their 18th championship.

It appears that Burke thinks the whole thing is overblown, given that she made light of it during an NBA Finals game.
