Kelsey Plum Breaks Silence After Backlash Over Viral Caitlin Clark Diss
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. Indiana Fever star Caitlin Clark has been an easy target for her fellow WNBA peers both on and off the court. Though she hasn't played a game in over a month while she recovers from a right groin injury, Clark was in the headlines recently for being on the receiving end of a viral diss from Los Angeles Sparks guard Kelsey Plum. During the 2025 WNBA All-Star Game last month, Plum threw some shade Clark's way when she called out the reigning Rookie of the Year and the rest of the players on her All-Star roster for not showing up to a players' meeting in which they decided to wear black shirts with the message "Pay Us What You Owe Us" during warm ups to send a message to the league's front office regarding their salary demands for the next collective bargaining agreement.

It was a genuine surprise. The T-shirt was determined this morning. Not to tattletale: zero members of Team Clark were very present for that." New York Liberty guard and fellow All-Star Sabrina Ionescu, who was on Team Clark, joked that Plum didn't need to point that out, to which she replied: "I'm just trying to make the situation light, OK?"

Caitlin Clark #22 of the Indiana Fever reacts during the game during the game against the Chicago Sky at Gainbridge Fieldhouse on August 9, 2025 in Indianapolis, the weeks since Plum made those remarks, she'd been ridiculed and called out by throngs of fans on social media who claimed she was jealous of Clark's star power. But after staying silent on the incident, Plum recently clarified what she really meant by her comments during a recent appearance on Sue Bird's "Bird's Eye View" podcast. "Oh, I made a bad joke," Plum admitted. "I made a really bad joke. ... I honestly was like, 'Hey, team Clark, they didn't make it to the meeting either,' just making a joke, trying to make the room lighter. "I was making a joke that they were hung over, even though our [Team Collier] nickname was hungover. So I was like, 'At least we made it.' Obviously, we were all on the same page, we all wore the shirts, we all were unified."

Plum posted a photo on Instagram celebrating All-Star weekend with the caption "What a weekend 🧡🧡🧡." Clark responded by commenting "Thank u for the Nike ad," seemingly making light of the fact that Plum, who signed a multi-year sponsorship deal with Under Armour in November of 2022, happened to be standing in front of a giant Nike logo in her photos. Clark is one of Nike's biggest stars. More WNBA: Fever Coach Stephanie White Gives Major Caitlin Clark Injury Update
