Los Angeles Sparks All-Star Kelsey Plum has seemingly created some controversy after her comments about Caitlin Clark.

During her postgame press conference, Plum, who was on Napheesa Collier’s team, explained that members of Caitlin’s team weren’t very present when both teams met before the game to coordinate wearing their warmup shirts with the message: “Pay us what you owe us.”

“It was a very powerful moment. As players, we didn’t know that that was going to happen. It was a genuine surprise,” Plum said of the fans chanting “pay them” while WNBA commissioner Cathy Engelbert was speaking on the court.

After wrapping up her postgame presser, Plum took to her Instagram to share a few photos from All-Star weekend in Indy.

As a result, she received a ton of comments from Caitlin Clark fans.


Even the woman herself had something to say.

“Thank u for the Nike ad,” Clark said in her comment section.

When Will Caitlin Clark Return To The Court?

Indiana Fever guard Caitlin Clark is not expected to play when the WNBA season resumes Tuesday.

She continues to recover from a groin injury that she suffered last week. Clark was unable to participate in the WNBA’s 3-Point Contest and the All-Star Game, though she was in attendance inside Gainbridge Fieldhouse.

“She’s going to see some doctors and get more tests early in the week,” Fever coach Stephanie White said.

“I don’t expect her to be available on Tuesday, so we’re just going to take it one day at a time and let her get evaluations early this week and then, once we’ve done that, hopefully we’ll have more of a clear vision of what it looks like.”

Those evaluations and meetings with doctors will paint a clearer picture of how long her recovery will take.

Caitlin Clark suffered a right groin injury on July 15 against the Connecticut Sun in Boston.

This is Clark’s fourth muscle injury this season, which has caused her to miss 11 of the Fever’s 23 regular-season games.
