Caitlin Clark has been clinical since last week, as the Indiana Fever finally looks a little comfortable on the court. After two consecutive wins, including the 45-point show Clark put on, Indiana coach Stephanie White and the squad seem to be in sync. Moreover, the guard was awarded the Player of the Week, and fans couldn’t get enough of her hilarious reaction to the announcement.
There was a lot of talk in the WNBA world about Clark’s relationship with White, especially when the two had a fallout on the team’s bench earlier in the season. However, the coach and Clark both publicly clarified that they have a great bond and there were no internal issues between them.
That emotion was evident when White announced the Player of the Week with an animated style. In response, Clark made a hilarious gesture with her hands, and fans had all kinds of responses to her new celly. A fan wrote:
“she’s a little kid”
Another fan asked:
“what does the little move she made mean??”
This fan was pleased to see the coach happy for Clark:
“Coach looks genuinely happy for her! That’s nice to see!!”
One more user addressed the hilarious gesture:
“Caitlin didn’t know what to do”
Another fan wrote in the same tone:
“She’s so goofy”
This fan praised Clark for being humble:
“Always so humble. Can tell she doesn’t ever like the spotlight.”
Since coming back from her back issues, Clark didn’t look completely fine in her first game back against the LA Sparks, where she scored nine points, shooting 4-for-12. However, she quickly recovered as the team returned to winning ways.
Caitlin Clark’s achievement comes after a record-breaking 45-point outing

She scored 45 points and 10 assists to take the team to a 110-107 win. She was not just dominating, but she was also big in the fourth quarter, especially in clutch moments.
