Notre Dame sophomore guard Hannah Hidalgo is currently the most surging superstar in women’s college basketball.
After impressing as a freshman, Hidalgo has shown incredible growth this season, turning Notre Dame into a National Championship contender.
Fans are now wondering if she has become the best player in women’s college basketball.
Hidalgo, a sophomore, won’t be eligible for the WNBA Draft until 2027, where she may contend with USC’s JuJu Watkins for the top pick.
Fans can look forward to a matchup between Hidalgo and Indiana Fever’s Caitlin Clark starting in 2027, as hinted by Hidalgo in an Instagram Q&A.
Hidalgo asked fans about exciting matchups, with one fan mentioning a potential showdown with Clark in the pros.
The anticipation for a clash between Hidalgo and Clark in the WNBA, where their fiery competitiveness and offensive skills will shine, is palpable.
