Caitlin Clark
Snaps At Reporter Asking About Trans Athletes
Published
Caitlin Clark is finally addressing her teammate Sophie Cunningham‘s controversial comments on trans athletes in women’s sports … and she’s getting feisty with reporters.
Caitlin was asked about Sophie coming out against “biological men” competing against young girls in sports … and the Indiana Fever star snapped at the journalist who dared to ask a follow-up to her non-answer.
Caitlin was asked about Sophie’s stance after Sunday’s 108-100 loss to the Minnesota Lynx … she didn’t pick sides, said it was above her pay-grade, claimed it wasn’t a topic in the locker room and said she was only focused on winning WNBA games.
When the reporter pressed for more, Caitlin shut him down … and you can feel the tension in video from their exchange.
Waiting for your permission to load the Twitter Tweet.
Minnesota Lynx coach Cheryl Reeve wore a “Trans Kids Belong” shirt on the sidelines … and she talked to Sophie in person before the game … later explaining why those sorts of interactions are so important nowadays.
Caitlin’s the biggest star in the WNBA, so she’s got the most to lose by picking sides … but that doesn’t mean she won’t be asked about her teammate.
