Since being drafted into the WNBA by the Indiana Fever, Caitlin Clark has quickly become one of the most noticeable faces in basketball. However, with that newfound fame comes a lot of attention, and that’s not always a good thing. Recently, a TikTok clip of Clark at one of the Fever’s games has gone viral, showcasing some of Caitlin’s not-so-marketable behavior. The video was posted by social media account @RedMegs, and currently has around 228K views with 8K likes.
The TikTok begins with Caitlin Clark standing on the outside of the team huddle during a timeout. However, Caitlin is rocking street clothes during the clip due to her being on Indiana’s injured list. During the timeout, Clark is standing around looking at the crowd. Then, suddenly, a cameraman attempts to walk in front of Clark and behind another player. The man is moving fast to get the shot of whatever he is trying to film, and appears to brush against Caitlin ever so slightly, if even at all.
Caitlin Clark Yells at Stadium Worker During Indiana Fever Game
That is when Clark attempts to swipe at the man’s camera while shooting him a very mean look. Caitlin then watches the cameraman walk all the way down to the other side of the court to continue working. However, when the man returns to his original seat for play to resume, he has no clue what is waiting for him. Clark would then get directly into the man’s face in order to scold him for almost touching her with the camera. With a look of clear confusion on his face, the cameraman seemingly apologizes and heads back on his way.
As for Caitlin Clark, after another lengthy “attitude” filled stare down at the cameraman, she returns to the rest of her Indiana Fever teammates to watch the game. Clark has been having what some would describe as an off year in her WNBA Sophomore season. However, most are chalking it up to the injury bug. Clark has also voiced her frustration with her season so far. Although despite the injuries and frustration, this is no way to act, especially on the court. Most basketball fans seemingly agree as well. She “Turned into Karen Clark real quick,” one commented on TikTok.
Caitlin Clark’s outburst at the cameraman is not the first time the athlete has shown some less-than-desirable traits for a star. Although her play on the court is undeniable. Clark’s Indiana Fever may still have a long way to go talent-wise, but the foundation is there. As for Caitlin herself, it is unknown what she said to the man, but it most likely could have been handled in a better way.
