Indiana Fever Star Faces Backlash Over Misconstrued Caitlin Clark Comments After Sky Game

The Indiana Fever crushed the Chicago Sky 97-77, even with Caitlin Clark’s season-ending groin injury news. But postgame, Kelsey Mitchell’s comment about implying “we’re all we got, and we’re all we need”, sparked a lot of fan outrage, with some taking it as shade toward Clark. Now, Mitchell had praised CC as a great teammate, yet her rallying cry for team culture was quickly twisted online into claims she was downplaying the star guard’s value. While the fans argued, the Fever kept rolling—proving they’re scrappy enough to grind without Clark, even as her shadow looms over Indy’s playoff push.
