Caitlin Clark’s iconic college career with the Iowa Hawkeyes may be over, but her WNBA career is just now beginning after she was selected first overall by the Indiana Fever at the Draft on Monday night in New York City.
Days after being selected as the No. 1 overall pick in the 2024 WNBA Draft by the Fever, Clark was introduced by her new team for the first time.
What should’ve been a celebratory event turned incredibly awkward all because of Indianapolis Star columnist Gregg Doyel.
Gregg Doyel is going insanely viral for all the wrong reasons because of his terribly awkward exchange with Clark at her introductory press conference.
It began with Doyel making the “hands heart” at Caitlin Clark, which is a gesture she made to her family and young fans throughout her college career. It got even creepier and inappropriate from there when he asked Clark if she liked it.
“Hi Caitlin, Gregg Doyel Indy Star,” he started before doing the hand signal.
“You like that?” she responded.
“I like that you’re here,” he said.
“I do it to my family after every game…pretty cool,” Clark noted before things turned truly uncomfortable.
“Do it to me, and we’ll get along just fine,” Doyel suggested.
