Caitlin Clark was hyped up after watching 77-year-old former Indiana Fever GM and championship coach Lin Dunn showing off her dance moves. On Friday, the Fever team organized an early celebration of Dunn's 78th birthday.

The video posted on Instagram Friday showed team coach Stephanie White gifting Dunn a bouquet on behalf of the team in the practice facility. Dunn made sure to remind everyone that she was 39, half of her age.

If that wasn't enough, she came with the proof. In her Fever hoodie, Dunn broke out the Charleston dance move, drawing a cheer from the Fever players. In the end, Dunn looked at the crowd with blank killer eyes, as if to say, that she still got it.

Lin Dunn has served as a coach since 1970. She started her tenure with Indiana as the assistant coach in 2004. In 2008, she was appointed as Fever's head coach. Dunn eventually led the Fever to the franchise's first and only championship in 2012.

Clark and Co. will start their regular season on May 17 in a game against Angel Reese's Chicago Sky in an ESPN doubleheader. With a new roster in place, the Fever's focus is on winning the second championship.

The franchise's front office traded and signed several good veteran players who could not only make their shots but also help Clark in her development. The team brought in three championship players, DeWanna Bonner, Sydney Colson and Natasha Howard.

Though the team has a high ceiling this season, it could be a challenge for Stephanie White to balance Clark's development and maintain her team's production on both ends of the floor.

Flau'jae Johnson's success in music and basketball has been worth a story. She is among the top guards in the country and has already collaborated with Lil Wayne.
