Indiana coach Christie Sides pulled Caitlin Clark, the greatest clutch shooter in college basketball history, from the game in the final two minutes. Clark was just one rebound away from a triple-double! This could have been the first triple-double by any rookie in WNBA history.
The Fever won the game despite their awful coach.
Recall that Diana Taurasi talked sh*t about Caitlin, saying, “Reality is coming.”
Today, Grandma Taurasi, the oldest active player in the WNBA, had a reality check.
“It’s amazing what Caitlin’s been able to do in her short career so far,” Taurasi said. “The one thing that I really love about her, she loves the game. You can tell she’s put the work in… It’s been a lot of pressure, a lot of things thrown at her, and she keeps showing up and keeps getting better every single game.
“So her future is super bright, and being a veteran and being in this league for a long, long time, it is pretty cool to see that and go into the future.”

Dave Portnoy said it best. Caitlin dominated.
By the way Caitlin Clark put up a casual 15/9/12 pummeling on grandma Taurasi today on the road. But yeah put Diana in the Olympics for the 100th time. What a joke.
