Caitlin Clark’s teammates have again come under fire after the Indiana Fever was beaten by the Chicago Sky on Sunday night.
Christie Sides’ players were criticized by many people after a previous meeting between the two teams, when Clark – the No 1 overall pick – was hip-checked to the floor by Chennedy Carter.
Clark’s teammates were slammed for not doing more to protect their star player. Now, following Sunday’s defeat by the Sky, they have come under fire for their failure to support her with the ball.
Several clips have flooded social media, showing players dropping simple passes and missing lay-ups.

‘Not (gonna) lie, Caitlin Clark might have some of the worst teammates in the WNBA,’ one fan wrote.
‘Caitlin Clark with seven assists at half. Crazy to think how many she’d have if her teammates could finish,’ another added.
Clark currently averages 5.6 turnovers a game during her first season in the WNBA. That is 1.7 more than anyone else but some fans insist is not her fault.
‘Clark’s teammates can’t catch this is why she leads the WNBA in turnovers,’ one fan wrote. ‘Her teammates literally cannot catch the simplest of passes,’ another added.
Clark was asked after the game if she wished she had taken more shots late in Sunday’s game.

‘I mean, sure, you can wish it. I’m sure there was an opportunity or two for me to probably attempt another shot there at the end, but I trust my teammates… I’m gonna give them the ball every time,’ she said.
Incredibly, the No 1 Draft pick took only two shots in the final seven minutes, despite being one of the greatest shooters in women’s basketball.
She also appeared to have a disagreement with Indiana Fever coach Sides in the closing stages of the 88-87 loss.
In a clip circulating on social media, Clark can be seen gesturing furiously while talking with Sides, before the Fever coach responds to her complaints.
