Stephanie White only had guard Caitlin Clark on the court for 13 games this season, but the Indiana Fever head coach showed strong support Friday for the injured star amid the ongoing CBA battle between the WNBA and its players. Players association VP Napheesa Collier of the Minnesota Lynx went public last week with a conversation she had recently with league commissioner Cathy Engelbert, who allegedly told her Clark and others “should be on their knees” in appreciation due to the platform the league has given them. Engelbert later denied ever making those comments about Clark.
