While Brianna Turner says she wasn’t present when the alleged incident took place, she also took to X.com to support her teammate. “Didn’t realize that when we said ‘grow the game’ that would be interpreted as harassing players at hotels,” she wrote on X.com later in the evening. “You are free to have your own opinion but consider if this happened to someone u know.”

The WNBA has been the subject of debate ever since the popularity of Clark, Reese, and other beloved rookies skyrocketed viewership of the 2024 season. Carter’s foul against Clark appeared to feed the discourse that players may be targeting the newbies more aggressively than usual over alleged “jealousy.”
For her part, Clark said the foul was “just not a basketball play,” later adding, “I think at this point I know I’m going to take a couple of hard shots a game and that’s what it is.”
Before the foul was upgraded, Carter refused to answer any “Caitlin Clark questions” during a post-game press conference, though she took to social media to address critics on X.com, writing, “Troll notifications blowing up. I love it.” She also dissed Clark on Instagram Threads, posting, “& that’s that on that cause beside three point shooting what does she bring to the table man.”
