Former NBA player Matt Barnes has a clear message for Indiana Fever amid the WNBA’s brutal tactics against Caitlin Clark: “Got to do better, ladies.”
It hasn’t been a walk through the park for the 22-year-old rookie star Caitlin Clark since stepped out on the WNBA stage earlier this year. Somehow, still tackling all the offensive marks against her, #22 is possibly taking more hits than any WNBA player this season.
While she hasn’t been quiet through it all, her team, Indiana Fever, despite swooping her as the overall No. 1 pick at the 2024 draft, has seemingly maintained a reticent quiet through the court to the extent that others have had to jump in her defence.
On the first day of Pride Month, college rivals Caitlin Clark and Angel Reese crossed paths on the professional WNBA level as their sporting feud kicked up a notch higher during the Indiana Fever vs Chicago Sky game. But, even before that happened, Fever’s standout rookie took massive hits from the other side. Sky’s Chennedy Carter particularly struck her with a brutal foul as Clark hit the floor hard. Making matters worse, Carter’s in-game offensive followed a verbal attack, calling Clark a “b**ch.”
