Caitlin Clark seemed to take a swipe at Caitlin Clark and Charles Barkley after the Chicago Sky picked up their second win of the season on Thursday night.

The Sky are 2-1 following a win over the New York Liberty. Meanwhile, Clark’s Fever are languishing at 0-5 to start the season.

 

Barkley, on the other hand, left WNBA fans, and likely players, upset with his comments on Wednesday night. The Hall of Famer called out WNBA players for being “petty” and hating on Caitlin because of all the attention she’s getting during ‘Inside The NBA.’

He suggested that players should appreciate the two-time College Player of the Year for all the fans she’s brought to the league, also referencing the arrival of charter flights and the boost in ratings.

 

The comments did not go down with fans, given that there’s hardly any evidence of Clark being hated. While Diana Taurasi’s warning is something that could be considered, that’s all it was: a warning. To be fair, it was not displaced as Clark’s finding it hard to adjust to the rigors of the WNBA.

Angel Reese Takes Aim

Angel Reese caught wind of the comments as she appeared to take a shot at Barkley and Clark after the Sky became the first team to beat the Liberty for the season on Thursday.

“And that’s on getting a WIN in a packed arena not just cause of one player on our charter flight,” she wrote in a tweet.

Reese has deleted the post, but not before certain accounts got screenshots.

The rookies’ rivalry dates back to their college days. And the fact that it’s followed them to the WNBA should make things more exciting for fans.

Social media detectives have identified the female fan who has been doing the rounds online after her appearance at the Los Angeles Lakers win on Saturday night.

The Lakers got a crucial win over the Denver Nuggets on Saturday night, extending their season with a 119-108 home win against a team they hadn’t been able to beat in 11 straight games.

The 3-1 series will shift back to Denver, where the Los Angeles Lakers hope to secure another win.

Of course, that’s easier said than done, given how dominant the reigning NBA champions have been in this series, while there’s a palpable disconnect between the L.A.’s players and their coaching staff.

Still, Lakers fans have something to be excited about.
