‘Entitled brat’ Caitlin Clark ripped for ’embarrassing diva’ behavior in Indiana Fever loss by Jason Whitlock… and the WNBA star AGREES

Caitlin Clark “made a fool of herself” by not controlling her emotions during the Indiana Fever’s loss to the Minnesota Lynx, according to Jason Whitlock. The WNBA star herself admitted that she needs to do a better job of staying calm.

Clark repeatedly clashed with officials during Friday night’s game. At one point, when she thought she had been fouled while contesting a rebound, she remained on the ground instead of coming back to defend.

The Lynx defeated Clark and the Fever 99-88, with Clark still scoring 25 points.

Whitlock, who normally praises Clark, wrote on X on Saturday: “Caitlin Clark made a fool of herself last night. Embarrassing performance. Her lack of emotional control and hyper-focus on arguing with and betraying the refs caused the Fever to lose their cool and collapse.

“She has a well-deserved bad reputation with the referees. No player in the WNBA spends more time bitching and bickering with the referees. Last night she took it to a new level. She acted like a spoiled 12-year-old.

“This needs to be addressed and dealt with. It’s not a one-time thing. It’s been there all season. It’s not corrected, so it’s going to get worse. The Fever won’t reach their potential until Clark is an adult.

“Her lack of emotional control is the biggest obstacle for the Fever. She’s the leader of the team and Aaliyah Boston has followed Clark down the whiny path. That has to stop. The referees, and for good reason, don’t like the Fever.”

Whitlock also shared the clip of Clark lying on the floor after not getting the phone call she wanted, simply captioning it, “Embarrassing.”

Whitlock said in a separate tweet: “She showed exactly these tendencies at Iowa.

“The problem is getting worse, not better. I love her. But she is a spoiled brat and a diva on the field.”

Clark said after the match that she had to learn to control her emotions when the referee made decisions against her.

“I think there’s definitely a line,” she said. “I was frustrated and thought I got fouled a couple times in the second half on mid-range jump shots. It happens.

Sometimes you get phone calls, sometimes you don’t. It is what it is. I think I could have controlled my own emotions a little better.

“I think there is a line and sometimes your passion, your emotion, can get to you, but that’s something I would never change, and no one on our team would ever change.”

Clark, whose Fever team has already secured a spot in the play-offs, will be back in action on Sunday afternoon against the Atlanta Dream.
