Social media is convinced that Caitlin Clark’s WNBA peers are “terrified” of her after some interesting footage from Saturday’s WNBA All-Star Game.
The 2024 WNBA All-Star Game was held at the Footprint Center in Phoenix, Arizona on Saturday. Caitlin Clark and Team WNBA defeated Team USA by a final score of 117-109, with the first overall pick tallying four points and 10 assists in 26 minutes of action.
One of the more memorable moments of the All-Star Game saw Team USA member and Las Vegas Aces guard Kelsey Plum providing hard defense on Clark. Let’s just say Plum was putting in the effort like it was a playoff game instead of an exhibition match:
This viral clip had fans saying the same thing: The WNBA veterans are absolutely “terrified and/or jealous of Caitlin Clark:

The 22-year-old Clark has more than lived up to expectations as the first overall pick in the 2024 WNBA Draft. She’s averaging 17.1 points, 5.8 rebounds, 8.2 assists and 1.5 steals per game through her first 26 contests while shooting 40.5 percent from the field.
With the league on an Olympic break, the Fever will get three weeks off before returning to action against the Phoenix Mercury on Aug. 16.
Caitlin Clark & Fever Looked Poised To Make The Playoffs
The Fever haven’t made the postseason since 2016, and they haven’t won a playoff series nor finished above .500 in nine years. And since 2017, Indiana hasn’t topped 13 wins in a single season.
But the postseason drought looks destined to finally end here in 2024. At the Olympic break, the Fever sit at 11-15 and are three games clear of the Atlanta Dream (7-17) for the final playoff spot.
Indiana is tied with the Chicago Sky (10-14) for the No. 8 seed. Clark and company are also just 2.5 behind the Mercury for the No. 6 seed, so the path is still there to climb up the standings during their postseason push.
