Caitlin Clark Apologizes To Fever Fan For Pregame 'Incident'

As Caitlin Clark continues to be sidelined with a quad injury, the Indiana Fever superstar has tried to keep entertained.

The Fever were able to snap their three-game losing skid on Tuesday night with a much-needed 85-76 win over the Washington Mystics — led by the backcourt tandem of Kelsey Mitchell and Lexie Hull.

It hasn't been easy for Caitlin to watch from the bench, but she attempted to keep things light with some "pregame shenanigans" prior to tip-off.

Unfortunately those shenanigans involved her bouncy ball taking a wild hop into the Gainbridge Fieldhouse crowd — which the reigning Rookie of the Year was quick to apologize for.

Fans got a good laugh at the pregame "incident" on X.

"CC so funny " a user cried.

"CC has more content generated while on the sideline vs on the court " another sobbed.

"She really is like a big kid I swear lol ... I love it," a fan said.

"You can tell CC and Steph genuinely like each other as people, and it's the cutest thing," another person pointed out.

"She's so dang antsy in all these clips, definitely dying to get back on the court," another fan replied. "Love the culture around this team! Great win yesterday "

"She is so sweet at heart."

Clark is expected to be out for at least another week before her injury gets re-evaluated. Which means the Fever are going to need more performances like last night's to stay afloat in the Eastern Conference.

Clark's 9.3 assists per game were leading the WNBA before she went out. Hopefully we're not too far out from seeing CC take the floor again soon.
