Right from the beginning, Caitlin Clark, who is averaging 17.6 points, 1.1 blocks, and 6.6 assists per game, stands out as the top performer on the Indiana Fever’s roster. However, in the ongoing game against Chicago Sky, the performance of Clark’s teammates has been subject to fans’ criticism.

One such criticism against the Fever’s team came from a fan who felt compelled to add his insights. He took to his official Twitter account and wrote, “Caitlin Clark would be averaging 15 assists if her teammates could make 75% of their wide-open shots.” But the question is: are the WNBA No. 1 draft pick’s teammates not performing up to the mark?

As usual, fans and supporters stormed into the comment sections to add their take on this topic. “Caitlin Clark’s teammates btw.

But what made these fans agitated? It was Clark’s teammates themselves who lacked massively when it came to assists. While this was one of the games where Clark lacked massive support from her teammates, she performed individually to lead her team to a 71-70 victory. “If Caitlin Clark didn’t have these teammates, she would be averaging 10 assists easy,” penned a spectator.

Not only this, but Clark added 11 points and eight rebounds, making it crystal clear that she lacked support from her teammates. Another fan, after noticing it, said, “Caitlin Clark’s teammates are not serious,” criticizing her teammates. Overall, despite all the shortcomings, Clark’s shooting accuracy was on point.
