WNBA - English
During a Los Angeles Sparks game on June 29, 2025, star player Kelsey Plum engaged in a humorous exchange with a courtside fan wearing a Caitlin ClarkIndiana Fever t-shirt.
As Plum warmed up before the matchup against the Chicago Sky at Crypto.com Arena, she noticed the fan’s attire and approached her with a playful remark: “You can’t be wearing that in the gym. Do better.”
Caitlin Clark gives Kelsey Plum a look and fans go wild
With a grin, Plum handed the fan a new LA Sparks shirt, which the woman happily donned over her existing shirt, laughing at the unexpected gesture.
This lighthearted moment comes shortly after a more intense interaction between Plum and Clark. During a previous game between the Sparks and the Fever, Clark, sidelined due to a groin injury, was vocal from the bench, urging referees to call a technical foul on her.
Plum, not one to back down from competition, appeared to support the call, showcasing the spirited rivalry between the two teams.
An important figure in the WNBA
Caitlin Clark’s influence on the WNBA has been profound, both on and off the court. Since joining the league, she has become a central figure, drawing significant attention to women’s professional basketball.
In her second season, Clark received over 1.2 million fan votes for the 2025 WNBA All-Star Game, marking her second consecutive year as a team captain. This milestone underscores her widespread popularity and the growing fanbase for the league.
Her presence has also had a substantial impact on viewership. Prior to her injury, nationally televised WNBA games averaged approximately 1.8 million viewers.
However, following Clark’s absence, viewership dropped to under 850,000 viewers, highlighting her significant role in attracting audiences to the league.
Off the court, Clark’s endorsement deals with major brands like Nike have further elevated her profile. She recently starred in a commercial promoting Nike’s new Kobe Bryant line, showcasing her influence in both the sports and fashion industries.
Additionally, her exclusive Nike Kobe 5 Protro shoes, designed in Fever colors, are set for release and are expected to sell out rapidly.
Clark’s rivalry with Plum
The playful exchange between Kelsey Plum and the fan wearing a Caitlin Clark shirt serves as a reminder of the passionate rivalries that fuel the WNBA.
As the league continues to grow, figures like Clark are instrumental in shaping its future, both through their on-court performances and off-court influence.
Fans can look forward to more exciting matchups and moments that highlight the vibrant culture of women’s professional basketball.
