The Indiana Fever played their preseason finale on Thursday against the Atlanta Dream and they got the result they wanted, as they scored a thrilling 83-80 win. And what’s a Fever game without people talking about Caitlin Clark?
Clark wowed people who watched the game, especially during one play when she attacked the heart of the Dream’s defense, taking on four defenders all by herself.
Who said that Clark can’t take on the physicality in the pros? It looks as though she’s doing just fine in the early goings of her venture in the WNBA.
Although she was just 4/12 from the field and went 2/9 from deep to finish with 12 points and had six turnovers, Clark still contributed in other ways, dishing out six assists and grabbing eight rebounds. There will be growing pains for her in the WNBA, hence the misses and the turnovers, but she should just be fine.
“She already looks like a seasoned vet. Too easy ”
“She is literally unbelievable! So talented”
“Great to see the WNBA is more physical than the NBA. Hand checking is still alive.”
“God Willing, this woman will crush every record that ever existed…”
“Hot knife through butter”
Of course, there will still be people who will choose to criticize than praise the Fever rookie.
“0-4 from 3 point line we are not moved ,” said someone who seems to be trolling.
“Why didn’t she pass the ball?” another one said.
