Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Rashee Rice showed some love to Caitlin Clark on social media this week, but he’s taking some heat for it.

Clark, who isn’t all that active on social media, took to Instagram after helping the Indiana Fever beat the Chicago Sky for the second time this season, having scored 23 points along with eight rebounds and nine assists in the record-breaking fixture.

She posted a photo of herself in her Fever uniform and another as a young girl, captioning them, “Time flies🖤✨.”


The post has attracted over 622,000 likes. Rice was one of the users who reacted to the photos, dropping “🔥🤞🏾” in the comments.

While many people liked Rice’s comment, a few did not appreciate the reaction.

“Cover your charges and law trouble first then comment,” one said.

“Aren’t you in jail,” said a second.

Rice has had a troubling offseason. The Chiefs wideout is facing eight felony charges following his involvement in a street race that caused a six-car crash in Dallas.

He is also under investigation for assaulting a photographer.

The individual who filed the report wants the charges dropped, per KTSM, but Dallas Police claim there is still an active investigation.

He is expected to get hit with a suspension from the NFL ahead of his second season in the league.

Rashee Rice And Caitlin Clark Have Met Each Other At Least Once

Rashee Rice and Caitlin Clark have interacted before. The Fever star was a Chiefs fan growing up and was at their game against the Las Vegas Raiders on Christmas Day.

She got to meet Rice and exchanged jerseys with him, telling reporters Taylor Swift is “a couple of tiers above my level,” after being asked whether she met the pop star.

The outcome of Rice’s case remains to be seen, but it doesn’t appear that fans are ready to give him the benefit of the doubt.

Matas Buzelis Scouting Report: Potential Landing Spots for the G-League’s Sensation Ahead of the 2024 NBA Draft

Matas Buzelis is considered a top-10 prospect in the 2024 NBA Draft, starting Wednesday, June 26.

Standing at 6-foot-10 with a good wingspan, Buzelis has the crucial physical tools in the NBA. His height and length make him a versatile defender and a potential offensive matchup problem. Due to his height, Buzelis often has an advantage when finishing on the move against wing defenders.

Buzelis averaged 2.7 blocks per game in the G League despite being a skinny teenager in a physical environment. His wingspan and vertical leap contribute to his shot-blocking ability, and his fearless mentality is an asset on defense.

However, Buzelis’ ball-handling skills are subpar, so he is considered a forward rather than a guard. His inability to create his shot limits his offensive versatility. One of the primary concerns for scouts is his inconsistency. Physical defenders can prevent him from getting to his spots, and he struggles to consistently maintain a high level of play.

Buzelis shot only 26.1% from beyond the arc and had 14 games without making a three-pointer. This lack of reliable outside shooting is a significant downside in today’s NBA.

Many draft boards project Buzelis as a potential pick for the Detroit Pistons, who hold the 5th overall pick. However, ESPN’s Jonathan Givony reported that the Pistons view Buzelis as their floor, indicating he might not fall below the 5th pick.
