Caitlin Clark’s Perfect Response To Indiana Fever Teammate’s New Ad
Caitlin Clark and the Indiana Fever are coming off their best win of the season after defeating Diana Taurasi, Brittney Griner, and the Phoenix Mercury by a final score of 88-82. This marked the Fever's first win over a team with a winning record.
On Monday, just one day after their win, Clark's Fever teammate Katie Lou Samuelson released a new social media advertisement. The ad shows Samuelson at a local Mattress Firm picking out her new mattress and getting it delivered and installed in her home.
Clark was quick to reply to Samuelson's promotional video, using what seemed to be a touch of sarcasm.

"I'm feeling inspired," the former Iowa Hawkeyes star commented.
Clark, Samuelson, and the Fever are 8-12 going into Tuesday's matchup with the Las Vegas Aces. They currently hold a WNBA playoff spot, and a win would only help them inch closer to a postseason appearance.
Samuelson is in her first season with the Fever. She played college basketball with the UConn Huskies and was taken with the No. 4 pick in the 2019 WNBA Draft by the Chicago Sky. In just over 18 minutes per game with Indiana, Samuelson is averaging 5.3 points, 2.1 rebounds, and 1.4 assists off the bench.
