After losing to the Seattle Storm on Thursday night, Caitlin Clark and the Indiana Fever have now lost two straight games and are 7-12 on the season.
After the game, Clark made waves when saying that, “No [WNBA veterans] give me advice in a game. I wish.”
This sparked outrage on social media, with one X user going viral for writing, “CC saying no one is giving her advice and she wished they did. A few things, Indy front office did a horrible job not putting any vets on the team. Also I don’t CC going up to vets after games. Sometimes you have to seek the advice. Keeping to yourself is not helping”.
That post has 150,000 views in about 9 hours.
That same user replied to their own post, adding, “Also goes back to Lisa Bluder comment about it’s not her responsibility to get her players ready for the League. She did a disservice to CC”.
Iowa Hawkeyes head coach Lisa Bluder and Iowa Hawkeyes guard Caitlin Clark (22) talk during practice for the NCAA Women’s Final Four championship basketball game between Iowa and South Carolina at Rocket Mortgage Fieldhouse, Saturday, April 6, 2024 in Cleveland.
That follow up alludes to a quote Bluder had during Clark’s final season at Iowa.
And Fever fans clearly don’t believe that Bluder is in the right for not worrying about her players after they exited Iowa.
Not that Bluder needs to worry about that now.
