Indiana Fever coach breaks silence on Caitlin Clark’s fiery clash with teammates

Caitlin Clark has had a hard time adjusting to life in the WNBA.

The Indiana Fever are facing a challenging start to the 2024 WNBA season, remaining winless after their first three games. This performance starkly contrasts with Caitlin Clark’s senior season at Iowa, where she experienced just five losses in total.

Despite the team’s struggles, Caitlin Clark showed significant improvement in the most recent game compared to the initial matches.

However, basketball is inherently a team sport, and it’s evident that Clark’s teammates have not been meeting expectations. This has been a point of concern for both Clark and the team’s head coach, Christie Sides.

In a recent press conference, Coach Christie Sides addressed the Fever’s ongoing issues, pointing to a lack of mental toughness among the players as a primary reason for their losses.

This sentiment was echoed during the Fever’s game against the New York Liberty, where both Clark and Sides displayed visible frustration.

Clark’s heated moment was captured on camera

The ESPN broadcast captured a telling moment during the game, where Clark was seen speaking to Sides with her mouth covered by a towel. Although the exact words were not audible, Sides’ response provided insight into their conversation.

“100%. 100%,” Sides responded. “We will. Give them time. Give them time, okay? Let’s go.” The interaction suggests that Clark expressed concerns about her teammates’ performance, and Sides reassured her that the team needs more time to improve.

As the Fever continue their season, the development of team cohesion and mental resilience will be critical factors in turning their performance around.

Leaked audio allegedly shows Anthony Edwards calling Kawhi Leonard old. Anthony Edwards put on a show for the Minnesota Timberwolves in their win over the LA Clippers on Sunday. He went toe-to-toe with Kawhi Leonard, who has been very healthy for the Clippers this season. A leaked audio from the game allegedly showed Edwards talking trash with Leonard, calling the two-time NBA champion old. In a video tweeteed by an NBA fan, Rudy Gobert was at the free throw line with 42.5 seconds left. The Timberwolves were up 106-100 and Gobert was trying to put the contest away despite air-balling a bonus show earlier in the game. Edwards and Leonard were fighting for the rebound, along with James Harden, Paul George and Jaden McDaniels. As Gobert shot his three throw, Edwards was heard talking trash at Leonard.

“Young nig** versus old nig**. Young nig** versus old nig** Kawhi,” Edwards allegedly said.

Expand TweetAnthony Edwards is one of the low-key funniest players in the NBA today. He’s also getting known for his trash-talking, and the great thing about it is that he backs it up with oncourt performances. Edwards is averaging 26.0 points, 5.4 rebounds, 4.9 assists and 1.3 steals per game this season. He has the Minnesota Timberwolves playing like a contender with a record of 28-11, the best in the Western Conference. The Timberwolves are on pace to have their best campaign since the 2003-04 season, when Kevin Garnett was named the MVP. Edwards finished with 33 points, nine rebounds and six assists in the win over the Clippers. Leonard, meanwhile, had 26 points, nine rebounds and four assists. It’s also worth mentioning that Edwards is just 22 and is already in his fourth season in the NBA, while Leonard is 10 years older and in his 12th year.

“Regardless of if you’re in front of Kawhi, PG or James (Harden), they’re going to try to iso you,” Edwards said.

“You gotta take pride in that challenge and try to stand them up. Kawhi gave me a tough bucket tonight, but other than that I think I did a pretty good job.”
