Before the Fever Game, Christie Sides revealed Caitlin Clark’s harsh feedback.

Indiana Fever coach Christie Sides shared the constructive feedback she had for star rookie Caitlin Clark.

In her first season with the Indiana Fever, Caitlin Clark has been spectacular. In fact, since play began after the Olympics break, Clark has put up 25 points, 5 rebounds, and 9 assists, earning him the title of WNBA Eastern Conference Player of the Week. However, there’s one thing that her coach and a large number of her supporters have recently encouraged her to do more of. Aim. particularly during the last quarter. In the team’s victory over the Atlanta Dream, Clark only attempted two shots in the last frame, but one of those attempts—a midrange pass that she made—went viral on social media.

Before the team’s game against the Connecticut Sun, Sides addressed the apparent lack of aggression from her star point guard and provided some helpful feedback. Sides said, “I adore that she is a playwright first and foremost. In the past 24 hours, we’ve talked a lot about the several photos she should have taken but wasn’t. Particularly in that Atlanta game’s fourth quarter. She acknowledged that she was a little uncomfortable at times with her ankle. However, she needs to shoot those pictures for us.”

It would make sense if Caitlin was thrown off by her ankle injury, even if she did call herself soft for how she reacted to it. Still, there has been a bit of pattern at times of Clark backing off the gas pedal late or passing up shots in the in between range.

It’s hard to find anything to take issue with when it comes to how Clark has played, but the Fever will need her at her absolute best come playoff time. As is, she’s already playing about as well as anyone in the league.
