Finally, Indiana Fever COACH Has Something “NICE” To Say About Clark. Christie Sides PRAISES Caitlin As A “Problem” After Third Straight Loss.
Caitlin Clark is still without a win in her WNBA career.
The Indiana Fever are now 0-3 during the 2024 WNBA regular season, after losing to the New York Liberty 91-80 on Saturday.
Despite the Fever suffering their third straight loss to start the season, they looked much better against the Liberty than they did just two days ago, on May 18.
While Clark only scored 9 points in that initial game, she responded to the criticism she received with 22 points, 8 assists, and 6 rebound against the Liberty.
She also drained a few three point shots that reminded fans of her iconic Iowa tenure.
Fever head coach Christie Sides spoke with media after Saturday’s loss. While doing so, she made sure to praise her most famous player.
“Kelsey [Mitchell] and Caitlin are a problem,” Sides said. “You know, their speed is unbelievable… and it’s just going to be really hard for defenses to stay with them.”
Sides is surely hoping that the Connecticut Sun’s defense have a hard time staying with Clark when the teams rematch on Monday night.
LEAKED Audio Of Anthony Edwards Trash Talking Jamal Murray: “That’s What We Like”👀

“Old nig** Kawhi” – Leaked audio allegedly shows Timberwolves’ Anthony Edwards call out Kawhi Leonard
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.
Anthony 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.
Anthony Edwards loved playing against Kawhi Leonard, Clippers
Anthony Edwards of the Minnesota Timberwolves loved playing against Kawhi Leonard. Anthony Edwards was feeling very good following the Minnesota Timberwolves’ win over the LA Clippers. He said that he had a great time playing against Kawhi Leonard and the rest of the Clippers. He enjoyed the competition a lot and was very happy with his defense against four potential Hall of Famers.
“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.”
Iowa women’s basketball coach Lisa Bluder announced her retirement from the program on Monday and received a note from her best player in the aftermath.
Caitlin Clark, the reigning back-to-back national player of the year and No. 1 overall pick in the 2024 WNBA Draft, shared a message on X Monday after hearing the news.
“Simply no one better at building a team,” Clark wrote Monday. “Thank you for believing in me more than anyone. Enjoy retirement, coach. Very much deserved.”
Shortly after Bluder’s announcement, Iowa announced longtime assistant Jan Jensen will replace Bluder as head coach.
“The only option there ever was!” Clark said of Jensen being Bluder’s successor. “You deserve this more than anyone. Can’t wait to watch you lead this program!”
Clark, one of the greatest women’s college basketball players ever and the sport’s all-time leading scorer, led the Hawkeyes to back-to-back national championship games, both of which ended in losing fashion.
The 6-foot guard averaged 28.4 points with 7.1 rebounds with 8.2 assists per game for her career, breaking a slew of records in the process. Clark averaged 31.6 points with 7.4 rebounds and 8.9 assists per game as a senior last season, leading the country in points and assists.
Clark is now gearing up for her first season in the WNBA, where she will likely be one of the Fever’s best players. In her first two preseason games, she scored 21 and 12 points, respectively, against Dallas Wings and Atlanta Dream.
