"Caitlin Clark is off that sh*t now": Ex-NBA champ makes telling remarks hinting at attending WNBA games
With the 2025 WNBA season in full swing, Caitlin Clark and the Indiana Fever have quickly recaptured the attention of the basketball community. In their season opener against the Chicago Sky, things quickly got chippy. More recently, in Indiana's 81-76 win over the Atlanta Dream on Thursday, Caitlin Clark and Rhyne Howard promptly set the stage with some physical play in the first quarter.
The way Hall of Famers and former NBA champions Paul Pierce and Kevin Garnett see things, Clark and the Fever are making their presence felt in a big way.
During the latest "KG Certified" episode, players also expressed interest in attending several WNBA games.
"I like watching the girls play, bro. It's intense. Caitlin Clark is off that shit now. She let it all slide the first year. They was pushing her and all that. She like, 'you know what? I'm in here, I'm here, and this is what it's gonna be this year. And she set the tone.'"
