Caitlin Clark Scares Wings Staff After Angry Moment

Indiana Fever rookie Caitlin Clark couldn't hold back her frustration during Wednesday's game against the Dallas Wings and ended up startling an arena staff member.
During a break in the contest, Clark was seen heading to the bench looking visibly upset--possibly due to a turnover that she just committed, as the broadcast suggested. Surprisingly, however, the Fever rookie was unable to contain her emotions and proceeded to slam a water battle to the ground.
The moment was captured on camera , with a Wings arena staff member also caught in the middle of it. The said staffer was handing out towels before Clark threw the bottle near her, scaring her a bit.
Caitlin Clark is a fierce competitor who always demands perfection from herself. With that said, it's not a surprise why she's disappointed and unable to control her emotions during that moment.
The Fever All-Star finished the showdown with 24 points and 19 assists, setting a new record for the most dimes in a single game in WNBA history. She surpassed Courtney Vandersloot's mark of 18 assists set in 2020.

Despite her record-breaking night, the Fever still lost 101-93. It was an overall heartbreaking night for Indiana, as it dampened what would have otherwise been a celebratory occasion for Clark.
Clark will now prepare for the WNBA All-Star Game on Saturday before taking a much-needed break. Hopefully, the near month-long rest will help the sharpshooter and her team bounce back when play resumes in August.
