The WNBA and the Fever’s superstar Caitlin Clark made her much-anticipated return from injury this Saturday during Indiana’s 102-88 win over the New York Liberty at the Bankers Life Fieldhouse.
After suffering a quad injury that sidelined her for several games, Clark had a stellar comeback performance with 32 points, 9 assists, and 8 rebounds, helping her team earn their fifth win of the season.
But fans didn’t just focus on Caitlin’s impressive play – they also took to social media to comment on her attitude when demanding the ball.
Clark throws a ‘tantrum’
During the final minute of the second quarter, Clark took a long-range step-back three and missed. The rebound was grabbed by her teammate Aliyah Boston, who passed the ball to Natasha Howard, who was wide open at the time and scored.
Everything seemed fine until fans noticed Clark standing at the three-point line. The Fever superstar had asked Boston for the ball, but when she didn’t receive it, she threw her arms in the air twice and appeared disappointed that she didn’t get the pass – even though Howard scored.
Fans took to social media to comment on the play, and some of them said: “She won’t be a truly winning player until she can control this. Being a good basketball player is more than shooting 3s”, “Why would she be mad?” and “Everyone has things to improve even the best.”
Before that play, Caitlin had already received a technical foul for arguing an out-of-bounds call with the officials.
