On Friday, Kelsey Plum’s Las Vegas Aces defeated Caitlin Clark’s Indiana Fever 78-74. However, the 30-year-old point guard sparked a row on social media for her comments during the game. In a post-game interview, Plum responded to the backlash received on social media from fans.
The Aces registered back-to-back victories in the WNBA and clinched the second spot in the Western Conference with a 24-13 record. On the other hand, Caitlin Clark’s Fever have maintained third place in the East with a 19-19 record. Becky Hammon’s side restricted Indiana to 35 points in the first half, with just 13 points in the first quarter.
During a half-time interview, Plum was asked about the Aces’ defensive strategy, and after a short delay, she said, “I don’t know. Come back to me later.” In the second half, the Aces prevented the Fever from making a comeback. The two-time WNBA champion was asked to reflect on the win, and she said, “I don’t know. We have good players.”
Kelsey Plum Responds To Her “Rude” Comments After Beating Fever
In a post-game interview, Kelsey Plum was informed about the social media backlash after her mid-game comment on Clark and Fever. The three-time WNBA All-Star responded, “I mean, I thought we did a great job as a team, but Kelsey Mitchell was cooking. She had a couple on me as well, so I didn’t want to say anything stupid. So I just said come back to me.”
Plum’s teammate Chelsea Gray, who was also at the interview, teased her by saying, “Perfect answer.” The 30-year-old also talked about her “good players” comment, saying, “I don’t even have social media on my phone. No offense but, like, we have good players. I would hope so. Not disrespectful. We have competitors — pick one. That’s what I meant. People these days don’t say the truth.”
