Caitlin Clark, the star of the Indiana Fever, appears to be taking Team USA’s rejection personally.
The 12-woman US women’s basketball roster for the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris later this year does not include Clark.
When questioned about her exclusion from Team USA by the media on Sunday, Clark responded in a refined manner. However, Clark might have been more enraged about it in private.
After the unveiling of the Team USA roster, Christie Sides, the coach of the Fever, was questioned regarding her interactions with Clark.
“We had a conversation on the bus,” Sides said to the press. “She texted me to let me know that she received the call [from Team USA] when we were on the bus. “Hey coach, they woke a monster,” she exclaimed.
Clark was left off the squad by Team USA for allegedly ludicrous reasons.
Nonetheless, Sides and Clark agreed that there is a significant benefit to the omission. After an exhausting run of relentless basketball, Fever star Clark will have a full month off.
A week after leading Iowa to the NCAA championship game in early April, Clark received a WNBA draft selection. Throughout her debut season, Clark has also been under fire from a few of her WNBA colleagues.
