Caitlin Clark hasn’t suited up in a while, but she hasn’t exactly disappeared either. From the bench to the comments section, the rookie star is still finding ways to leave her mark.
After Indiana’s 90-83 win over Las Vegas on Sunday to even the semifinals, Clark and Sophie Cunningham were quick to hype up their teammates online.
Sydney Colson, still out with a knee injury from August, posted shots of one of her playoff fits on Instagram with the caption:
“Such a fn lady.”
The replies turned into a mini roll call. Clark dropped “Goat,” Cunningham joked, “What’s fn mean?” and Aliyah Boston chimed in with “Dayummm u are swaggy.” Makayla Timpson kept it simple: “Syd.”
It didn’t stop with Fever players. Kate Martin replied, “Yes maam,” and Candace Parker came through with a gem: “Idk it’s giving a mixture of Jaden Smith and Boyz In the Hood.”
Even on crutches, Colson has been everywhere—at practices, on the sidelines, and now filling the team’s feed.
“Day 1 of learning new skills”: Caitlin Clark, Sophie Cunningham, and Sydney Colson bond during rehab
Earlier this month, Caitlin Clark shared a lighter moment with Colson and Cunningham from inside the rehab room. The clip quickly went viral as Clark poked fun at herself while trying to juggle.
“Day 1 of learning new skills at rehab,” Clark said in the video. “Today we will be learning juggling. Syd knows how to juggle. Sophie claims she knows how to juggle.”
It was another reminder that even with injuries piling up, the Fever’s locker room remains connected and lighthearted.
Indiana now sits one win away from the WNBA Finals. The Fever and Aces meet in a winner-take-all Game 5, with the Phoenix Mercury already waiting after closing out the Minnesota Lynx 3-1.
