Caitlin Clark ‘blacked out’ before screaming at Candace Parker in viral moment
Caitlin Clark and WNBA legend Candace Parker had a hilarious exchange after Game 2, joking about the Fever star screaming at Parker mid-game.
Caitlin Clark's remarkable talent on the court extends beyond her exceptional shooting skills; it's her intense passion and competitive spirit that define her. This was evident during Game 2 of the WNBA playoff series between the Indiana Fever and the Las Vegas Aces, held at Gainbridge Fieldhouse. In the closing moments of the game, Clark delivered a decisive three-point shot that extended Indiana's lead to 11 points with less than 4:30 minutes remaining.
Following the game-winning shot, Clark pointed directly at her opponent, Candace Parker, who was providing play-by-play commentary alongside Michael Grady and LaChina Robinson on Amazon Prime Video. In an unexpected moment, Clark screamed at Parker, but it was only later that she revealed that she had momentarily "blacked out" and could not recall what she had said.
Upon reflection, Parker described the moment as one of hype, acknowledging the impact of Clark's powerful play. The subsequent video evidence confirmed that there was no underlying animosity between the two despite the intense exchange. Clark embraced Parker afterward, expressing her laughter and affection, emphasizing that such moments aren't meant to be taken personally, especially when both players are at their best.
Clark's standout performance in Game 2, including 27 points, 15 assists, and 7 rebounds, secured a victory for the Fever and set the stage for a pivotal Game 3 on Thursday night at Michelob ULTRA Arena in Las Vegas.
