Catlin Clark is getting ‘KICKED OUT’ of Indiana Fever Team after her Recent BAD ATTITUDE at the recent Indiana Fever VS Dallas Wings Game, Watch Video of the Incident that caused this decision: As she slams her water bottle on the floor in front of teammate, and her negative remark during the last Timeout… Is this a bad attitude by Caitlin Clark?
Caitlin Clark didn’t disguise her frustrations during or after Wednesday’s loss to the last-place Dallas Wings.
She may have set a WNBA record with 19 assists in the game, but in Clark’s mind, she made the mistake that dropped her Indiana Fever to 11-15.
‘The late turnover definitely kills, for sure,’ Clark said of her costly mistake in the 101-93 loss.
Trailing by five with 45 seconds remaining and the Wings using a full-court press, Clark pushed the ball up court, where she ran into a Dallas trap and ultimately had the ball poked away by Odyssey Sims, who quickly called a time out.
Clark fumed after the whistle. After initially slapping the hardwood in frustration, she returned to the bench, where she received bottle from a water boy and promptly spiked it along the sideline.
Afterwards she opened about the frustrating loss – and her new record.
‘It’s a fine line of they were up pressuring me, so I kind of got behind them and was able to attack and then I tried to pull it out and then kind of lost my handle while being poked from behind,’ said Clark, who is now averaging a ghastly 5.6 turnovers a game.
‘That one definitely killed. … That one’s really costly, you can’t have it.’
As for the assist record, Clark seemed to stumble on it by accident. In fact, she’s admittedly self-conscious of over passing in certain situations.
‘I just try to set my teammates up for success,’ Clark said. ‘I think at times I can almost overpass.
‘There probably could have been a few times where instead of passing that leads to a turnover that I may have, I can probably shoot the ball. Especially with [Aliyah Boston]. I’m just looking to set her up so much. My eyes are almost always on our post players.’
Clark finished with 24 points on 10-of-19 shooting. She enters the All-Star breaking averaging 17.1 points, 8.2 assists and a surprising 5.8 rebounds a game.
The WNBA will now go on a month-long break encompassing the upcoming Paris Olympics.
