Caitlin Clark gets kicked out by Fever coach Stephanie White in lighthearted courtside moment

Caitlin Clark Wins Hearts Off the Court Despite Injury Setback

Caitlin Clark’s impeccable timing isn’t limited to her highlight-reel assists and long-range shots—it also shines through in her off-court charm. During Wednesday’s Indiana Fever vs. Washington Mystics game at CFG Bank Arena, a viral moment captured Clark sitting in coach Stephanie White’s seat. When politely asked to move, Clark responded with a grin and obliged, showing her easygoing nature.

In another heartwarming clip, Clark was seen carrying the son of Fever assistant coaches Austin Kelly and Karima Christmas-Kelly during her tunnel walk, then later snapping photos of teammates during warmups—proof of her team-first spirit, even from the sidelines.

Despite missing the game due to a left quadriceps injury that will sideline her for at least two months, Clark’s impact was still felt. The game, moved to the larger CFG Bank Arena—likely due to the “Caitlin Clark effect”—was filled with fans who got selfies and autographs before tip-off.

As Clark once shared, “Engaging with fans is part of the job,” and even injury can’t dim her star power.
