“They giving her the Wemby treatment” – Caitlin Clark stans fuming after Aaliyah Boston bricks game-tying layup in close loss to Sun
Caitlin Clark and the Indiana Fever have yet to notch their first win of the 2024 WNBA season. Fans have begun comparing Clark’s situation to San Antonio Spurs newcomer Victor Wembanyama, the Rookie of the Year, as the Fever suffered their fourth consecutive loss, narrowly falling to the Connecticut Sun on Monday.
The game was close throughout, but it could have gone to overtime if Aaliyah Boston had made her layup attempt to tie it. Instead, she missed, and the Sun secured an 88-84 victory.

Fans couldn’t help but liken Clark’s predicament to Wembanyama’s. Despite Wembanyama’s never-before-seen skills and dominance, he couldn’t turn things around for the Spurs, who ended the season with a 22-60 record. One fan remarked:
âTheyâre giving her the Wemby treatment.â
Wembanyama averaged 21.4 points, 10.6 rebounds and 3.9 assists in 71 games this season. He won the Rookie of the Year award unanimously, beating the OKC Thunder rookie big man Chet Holmgren.
Some fans criticized Boston for missing the layup that would have forced overtime, noting that she was the top pick in last year’s draft.
