Caitlin Clark has gotten off to a not-so-great start in the WNBA.
The 2024 No. 1 overall pick has yet to experience victory in the pros, with the Indiana Fever 0-5 ahead of Friday’s clash against the Los Angeles Sparks.
Things aren’t expected to get easier just yet, as teams are likely going into games against the Fever with the aim of making life difficult for the rookie, who’s also been pretty banged up.
It appears the adjustment is taking a bit of a toll on the former Iowa Hawkeyes star, as she looked dejected and exhausted while speaking to a reporter ahead of tonight’s game.

The clip has left fans concerned, with some giving voice to their worries.
“I’m the only one kind of concerned here? I think the pressure and hate actually got her…” one wrote.
“she looks so tired omg pls leave that girl alone yall,” another remarked.
“It must be so F- ing annoying hearing the exact same question over and over ! Whether it is how her game is gonna translate to the WNBA or how does she deals with all the pressure,” added another.
It’s probably A Little Too Early To Start Worrying About Caitlin Clark
Caitlin Clark is certainly not having an easy ride, but she could have just been tired after a hard practice session. The Fever will be keen on winning their first game after losing their first five and are likely putting extra work in to stop the rust.
They play the Sparks in Los Angeles at 10:00 PM ET tonight.
LeBron James’ Mother Shares Heartwarming Message for Grandson Bronny James as He Steps Into NBA

Bronny James has frequently been in the headlines in the last couple of weeks, especially around the NBA Draft. Since he arrived in the league, the young guard has been receiving heavy criticism because of his relationship with LeBron James. Some support also came his way, and the latest one would surely melt everyone’s heart.
Bronny’s grandmother and LeBron’s mother, Gloria, penned a heartwarming message to Junior James about his recent achievement. Gloria posted pictures of her grandson on Instagram and chose to share her emotions in the captions. She wrote how Bronny’s draft on the second night made her recall the first time she saw him as a newborn.
Moreover, Gloria stated, “Over the years of his life, I’ve watched him grow into the AMAZING young man that he is today. And how proud and how honored I am to be his grandmother.” She expressed her happiness that Bronny could accomplish his dreams through his hard work.
Having seen her son establish a remarkable career in the NBA, Gloria would wish the same for Bronny. Even though the younger one doesn’t possess the same abilities as his father, the 19-year-old can sharpen his skills while playing with his superstar father in the Purple and Gold. However, recent reports suggest the Lakers have a different plan for the former USC guard.
