Caitlin Clark Just Embarrassed Team USA and Cheryl Reeve!

Caitlin Clark’s absence from the women’s Olympic basketball team left fans astounded, particularly considering her potential to impact the global game. Her exclusion was widely attributed to coach Cheryl Reeve, who reportedly held a grudge against the rising star.

Clark’s exceptional performance against Team USA and Reeve’s team, coupled with her record-setting achievements further solidified her stature in the sport. Despite facing criticism and being snubbed by the Olympic team, Caitlin Clark continues to excel and prove her detractors wrong. Her remarkable talents have undeniably elevated the WNBA’s profile, debunking any attempts to undermine her status as an all-time great.

Cheryl Reeve’s Questionable Caitlin Clark Quote Being Revisited By WNBA Fans

Team USA women’s basketball head coach Cheryl Reeve has been under fire for weeks after snubbing Caitlin Clark from the 2024 Olympics roster.

USA Today reporter Nancy Armour recently shared a quote from Reeve, where the longtime coach commented on the idea of having Clark in the 12-team lineup for Team USA.

“I’ve never been in the trenches with her,” Reeve said at the USOPC Summit in April.

WNBA fans revisited her quote following the Indiana Fever’s recent 81-74 victory over the Minnesota Lynx on July 14. Clark helped lift the Fever over the talented Western Conference squad, finishing the game with 17 points and six assists.

“Cheryl [Reeve] got beaten today by a team with Caitlin Clark on it. She rejected Clark for the Olympic Team. Just desserts!” said one fan.

“CC owned that house. Couldn’t even tell it was an away game,” another commented.

“Definitely should be on the team,” one fan said.

Reeve has been the head coach for the Lynx since 2010. She started her coaching career at La Salle in 1988, so the three-time WNBA Coach of the Year has plenty of experience leading a team.

Despite her resume, winning four WNBA Championships as a head coach and being named the WNBA All-Star Game coach four times, fans are still throwing shade at the Team USA coach.

Clark may have entered Minnesota’s arena and defeated Reeve and her squad, but it seems the rookie from Iowa will still need to wait a few more years before she gets a chance at the Olympic Games.

She’s produced a solid rookie season with the Fever, averaging 17.1 points and 8.2 assists per game. The 22-year-old will have another opportunity to make the Summer Olympics roster in 2028.
