‘When it rains, it pours.’ The Indiana Fever is experiencing a similar situation. With their stars inconsistent on the court, Caitlin Clark was out with an injury. On her return, she was expected to uplift the offense for the side, but her shooting struggles worsened the situation.
When asked about it, the guard mentioned that her HC asked her to be patient, which is entirely opposite to her nature. However, Stephanie White was proven right in the game against the Wings, and CC finally saw some positive results.
HC Wants Caitlin Clark To Have Patience
The former Iowa star has never been in the recovery room or had a shooting slump. She made her name for her consistency and ability to score from the range. But her failure to do so in recent games made headlines. The 48-year-old coach provides her views on the current slump..
“I just want her to have a little bit of patience, to give herself a little bit of grace, and to still do the other things that she does so well in the game that affect winning. Because yes, she’s an elite shooter. Yes, that’s what everybody wants to see. But she makes other winning plays, and she can control those things, and control the things that you can control, continue to work through the rhythm, the timing, the strength, the endurance, and it’s going to come,” White told the media in a post-game interview.

The 2024 Rookie of the Year is famous for her basketball IQ. Her pinpoint passes and the ranged shots have been another attractive prospect in her game.
Caitlin Clark Is A Multi-Functional Asset
The Fever rookie has a dynamic, high-scoring, and playmaking style. She’s a versatile offensive player with a unique ability to create scoring opportunities and involve her teammates. Her shooting range, particularly from beyond the arc, is a significant threat, and she’s also a strong passer and ball-handler.
