Fresh off a Rookie of the Year-worthy debut season in the WNBA, Caitlin Clark is proving that her skills aren’t limited to the basketball court. The Indiana Fever sensation has been lighting up social media this offseason, but not without stirring the proverbial pot. In a playful online spat with her former Iowa teammates, Clark demonstrated she’s just as lethal with her keyboard as she is from three-point range.
The drama kicked off on TikTok (because where else?) when current Iowa stars Jada Gyamfi and Hannah Stuelke posted a carefree dance video. Clark, never one to miss an opportunity to roast, dove into the comments section with a bit of advice dripping in sarcasm: “More film and sleeping. Less TikTok.”
Naturally, Gyamfi fired back with a mock threat: “I’m so close to blocking you on socials.” While the banter was lighthearted, it was a perfect snapshot of the enduring camaraderie Clark shares with her former squad.
Clark’s Court-to-Keyboard Transition
Clark’s penchant for humor and trolling has added an unexpected dimension to her growing legend. Known for her record-breaking scoring feats at Iowa—where she bulldozed her way to NCAA history and led the Hawkeyes to back-to-back National Championship appearances—Clark’s move to the pros was nothing short of spectacular.
As the No. 1 overall pick in the 2024 WNBA Draft, she turned the Fever into must-watch television, earning Rookie of the Year honors while making defenders look like extras in her highlight reel. Yet, her offseason antics suggest she’s just as interested in keeping her followers entertained as she is in building on her basketball résumé.
Case in point: in a recent playful jab, she roasted Indiana Pacers guard Tyrese Haliburton over an unflattering photo of his toes. Yep, even an NBA star isn’t safe from Clark’s laser-sharp wit.
Meanwhile, Back in Iowa…
While Clark has been busy adding to her online highlight reel, the Hawkeyes have shown no signs of slowing down without their former superstar. Currently ranked No. 17 nationally, Iowa boasts a pristine 8-0 record, with Stuelke leading the charge at 14.5 points and 7.1 rebounds per game. Gyamfi, though playing a smaller role, has also contributed to their strong start.
The Hawkeyes are gearing up for a showdown against undefeated Tennessee—a game that promises to be a test of their mettle. Though Clark has moved on, her bond with the team remains intact, as evidenced by her regular trolling and keen interest in their success.
What’s Next for Caitlin Clark?
With the WNBA offseason in full swing, Clark is taking every opportunity to show her personality off the court. Whether she’s needling former teammates or roasting fellow athletes, she’s proving that her star power transcends basketball.
But will her social media antics ever go too far? If Gyamfi’s jesting warning comes true, Clark might just find herself blocked—though something tells us she’d wear that badge of honor with pride.
As Clark preps for her second WNBA season, one thing’s for certain: whether she’s dishing assists, draining threes, or dropping hilarious one-liners, Caitlin Clark knows how to keep the world watching.
