Caitlin Clark Responds After Losing Competition At Indiana Fever Practice
Caitlin Clark and the Indiana Fever participated in a couple of team bonding events during Friday’s practice. They are working through the WNBA’s mandated break for the 2024 Paris Olympics, awaiting the return of players on the Team USA women’s basketball squad, like Brittney Griner and Sabrina Ionescu.
Indiana played a couple of unique games at practice that were conjugated as “mini-challenges.”
Some of these included a race to empty a tissue box and juggling balloons. They ultimately completed four mini-challenges.
The Fever posted the playful video on social media, and Caitlin Clark seemed to be mad at the results. She believes the games were rigged, which likely means the rookie and her team didn’t end up with the victory.
“Everything was rigged,” Clark said.
While Clark wasn’t able to secure the victory in the team’s practice challenges, she has been pretty successful during her rookie season in WNBA.
The first-year star is averaging 17.1 points and 8.2 assists per game, leading the league in average assists.
Clark recently played in the 2024 WNBA All-Star game, representing the Fever alongside Aliyah Boston and Kelsey Mitchell.
These All-Stars will look to come together despite any potential beef that was built during their mini challenges at practice when they face off against the Phoenix Mercury on August 16.
This will mark the first game Caitlin Clark and company will play after the Olympic break. The matchup at Gainbridge Fieldhouse will tip off at 7:30 p.m. ET.
