WNBA anniversary poster omission and on-court collision deepen Caitlin Clark conspiracy narratives
The Indiana Fever star's exclusion from the league's 30th anniversary poster and a disputed play against Phoenix have intensified claims that she is being targeted.
- The WNBA released a 30th anniversary poster that did not include Caitlin Clark; the poster's producer WinCraft reportedly lacked rights to use her image.
- During a game between Indiana and Phoenix, Alyssa Thomas collided with Clark, sending her to the floor; Fever coach Stephanie White called the play a "cheap shot."
- The league reviewed the incident and suspended Thomas for one game; Phoenix coach Nate Tibbetts said the investigation was not thorough and that Thomas "is not cheap."
- Thomas said she has received racist abuse and death threats since the incident; former NFL quarterback Boomer Esiason said Clark is a "straight, white basketball player" not treated with respect and suggested she play overseas.
