Her teammate, starting center Temi Fagbenle, has been thoroughly impressed by Clark’s abilities, especially her playmaking prowess.

She possesses a rare level of talent that allows her to influence the game from anywhere on the court, a remarkable feat for a rookie.

Shocking New Details Emerge On What Caused Confrontation Between Kylie Kelce & Angry Female Fan

New details have emerged on the confrontation between Kylie Kelce and an angry female fan outside of a Margate City, New Jersey, restaurant.
Kylie Kelce and her husband, former Philadelphia Eagles Pro Bowl center Jason Kelce, were seen having dinner on Saturday night in Margate City. A viral video, initially posted by the “Word to the Wise” podcast on Instagram, shows an obnoxious fan berating Kylie for turning down her request for a picture.
As Jason uncomfortably looks on, another man tries to end the confrontation. The fan is heard telling Kylie Kelce that she won’t be allowed in their town ever again:
According to PhillyChitChat.com, the confrontation started when the woman saw the Kelce’s in the parking lot. The report states that the woman started “banging on” Kelce’s car window before asking for the picture.
When Jason (understandably) declined, the woman caused a scene that prompted Kylie to confront her. It was noted that the man who broke up the confrontation was also part of the Kelce’s party:
“As Jason’s famous car idled there, a women walked up to the famous Tesla truck and began banging on it to get Jason’s attention. K&J got out to find out what was going on. The women then asked for a photo with her family. He declined, it wasn’t a good time, and obviously banging on the nearly $100ks Tesla Truck is RUDE!! The women went ballistic after not getting her way. (BTW there is a video of her banging on the truck, I don’t have that one but I know several people who have seen it, can you imagine?? Also the man in the photo, was with the Kelce’s, he wasn’t manhandling her as someone commented)
Not one to shy away, Kylie defended their decision, as the women shouted the Kelce’s would never be welcomed in Margate again. The women got into Kylie’s face, and not one to shy away Kiley gave it right back to her, telling her to just shut up you’re embarrassing yourself as Kylie’s friend (in blue) encouraged her to break away and go into the restaurant.”
