You can count Caitlin Clark’s boyfriend among those who want to see a move from the Indiana Fever.

Clark, the No. 1 overall pick in the 2024 WNBA Draft, was hit hard by Chicago Sky guard Chennedy Carter on Saturday. Carter received a Flagrant 1 foul for the play, though none of Clark’s Indiana Fever teammates seemed to be too bothered by the foul.

Many in the basketball world have the same idea: the Indiana Fever need to sign an enforcer. Clark’s boyfriend, Connor McCaffery, is part of that group.

He liked the following messages on social media: “Fever need to sign the wnba version of James Johnson,” and “Tyrese [Haliburton] had a finger laid on him once and the Pacers called up James Johnson. The Fever gotta call up somebody to take care of business.”

Former ESPN host Mike Golic is part of that group, too. He’s wondering why Clark’s Indiana Fever teammates haven’t done more to stand up for her.

Clark’s head coach, meanwhile, wants to see the WNBA do more to protect the No. 1 overall pick.

“We’re just going to keep sending these possessions to the league, and these plays, and hopefully they’ll start, you know, taking a better look at some of the things that we see happening, or we think is happening,” Christie Sides said. “Just more happy that Caitlin handled it the way she did.

“You know, it’s tough to keep getting hammered the way she does and to not get rewarded with free throws or foul calls. She’s continued to fight through that. Appreciate that from her. Really, really proud of her for doing that.”

The Fever topped the Sky on Saturday, but lost to the New York Liberty on Sunday evening. Clark had the worst game of her young WNBA career on Sunday night.
