Fans pile on South Carolina HC after Twitter activity (image credit: Getty)
Dawn Staley has been making headlines since she labeled Angel Reese as the favorite for WNBA ROTY over Caitlin Clark. In furtherance of this, a pro-Caitlin Clark X account posted a video of the Indiana Fever rookie dropping 41 points on Staley’s South Carolina in her days as an lowa player.
In response, the USC coach blocked the X account on the social media platform. The account admin came forward to inform fans of the situation with a screenshot of the blocked message, accompanied by the following caption and a repost of the video.
“It seems Dawn did not like the video.”
Fans flooded the comments sections with their opinions on the USC coach’s actions:
“Dawn Staley blocking a pro-Caitlin Clark handle is really embarrassing.”
Other fan join the fray:
“She’s such a jealous troll,” @backwardsball5 said.
“Dawg these people are so soft nowadays LMFAO. It’s truly hilarious,” @user12346758 said.
“Staley can’t take the heat lol,” @Kakeic22 said.
Some fans shared their screenshots of being blocked by Staley:
“Welcome to the club,” @DamonG89403665 said.
“Yeah, Dawn Staley didn’t like being tagged and fairly scrutinized. She blocked me shortly after this post,” @FroemelAndy said.
Caitlin is proving herself with her recent performances in the WNBA. The Indiana Fever rookie is the leading assist provider in the league averaging 8.2 assists per game as a rookie. Moreover, she also became the first rookie to score a triple-double in a single game.
Dawn Staley switches up her opinion on Caitlin Clark’s Team USA snub
In an interview with NBC Sports, Dawn Staley expressed her opinion about Caitlin Clark’s omission from the USA Women’s National Basketball Team for the Paris Olympics.
“Caitlin is just a rookie in the WNBA, wasn’t playing bad, but wasn’t playing like she’s playing now,” Staley said. “If we had to do it all over again, the way that she’s playing, she would be in really high consideration of making the team. She is playing head and shoulders above a lot of people.”
“But listen, the season is halfway through and Caitlin is coming. Caitlin is coming. If I had to pick today, it’s Angel. But over the course of the season? I’ll say this, whatever team makes the playoffs, that’s our Rookie of the Year.”
Clark is averaging 17.1 points, 5.8 rebounds and 8.2 assists. She also broke the WNBA record for most assists in a game with 19 assists in a 101-93 loss against the Dallas Wings. It will be interesting to see who does win the race for ROTY in the WNBA.
