Caitlin Clark is shocked as teammate performs lewd sexual act on her during locker-room live stream
Despite Clark being ruled out of Tuesday night's final with a groin injury, Indiana still ran out 74-59 winners over the Minnesota Lynx to claim the trophy, with Natasha Howard putting up a game-high 16 points in the victory.
And after getting their hands on silverware, Fever players headed back to the locker room for a wild party which caused quite a stir online.
Clark, who has been out of action for the past week, was at the center of the most viral moment from the locker-room festivities after joining her teammates to celebrate the victory on Tuesday night.
The reigning WNBA Rookie of the Year was leaning over to talk to the camera during an Instagram live recording when Fever guard Sydney Colson snuck up from behind and jokingly tried to dry hump her.
'Woah bro,' Clark said as she jumped up in shock before laughing, 'absolutely not, no thank you!'

Elsewhere in the celebrations, new Indiana hero Sophie Cunningham was also seen twerking in front of the camera during the same Instagram live session.
Cunningham has become a fan favorite in recent weeks after coming to Clark's rescue when tempers flared during last month's game against the Connecticut Sun.
After her star teammate was brutally shoved to the ground by Connecticut's Marina Mabrey following an altercation with Jacy Sheldon, the Fever guard was later praised for committing a hard and blatant foul of her own on the latter.
'It was a buildup for a couple of years now of [referees] just not protecting the star player of the WNBA,' Cunningham said after the game about Clark.
'And so at the end of the day, I'm going to protect my teammates. That's what I do. And I'm a team player, so it's all good.'
Tuesday night's WNBA Cup win means Cunningham, Clark and Co will share a $500,000 prize pool while also taking home the trophy.
Indiana last clinched the WNBA Championship back in 2012, meaning it was the first time the franchise has been able to celebrate a title win for over a decade.

Lisbon Lion John Clark attained football immortality with Celtic, funeral told
The defender from Lanarkshire, who played more than 300 times for the Glasgow club, died last month at the age of 84. His most famous match was undoubtedly the 1967 European Cup final in the Portuguese capital when Celtic defeated Inter Milan 2-1 to become the first British side to lift the European Cup – a victory that ensured a place in footballing folklore for the players and manager Jock Stein. Celtic stars past and present gathered in the east end of Glasgow on Friday for the funeral mass at St Mary's Church in Calton – a setting synonymous with Celtic, with the club's formation traced back to a meeting in the church hall in 1887. One of the last surviving Lisbon Lions, Jim Craig, attended, as did current manager Brendan Rodgers, club captain Callum McGregor and several other members of the first-team squad. Roy Keane and Ian Wright, who both played for Celtic, and former club captain and manager Neil Lennon were among the many well-known footballing figures in attendance. Portuguese flags hung from the balconies inside the church during a service that also heard the Celtic anthem You'll Never Walk Alone played on the organ. At the start of the mass, priest Father John Mulholland extended his sympathies to Clark's widow, Eileen, his children Mairi and Martin, his three grandchildren and other family members. He then reflected on the legacy created by Clark and his team-mates from 1967. 'How many people would be able to name those 11 men without even thinking, they are second nature to all of us, simply because of what they did that afternoon,' he said. 'That immortality has gone with them for what is now nearly 60 years – wee boys at school can rhyme off the names of the Lisbon Lions.' Delivering the homily, priest Father Mark O'Donnell described Clark as a 'happy and quiet man' who was known for his displays of 'authentic kindness'. Clark's association with Celtic extended long beyond the end of his playing days. He also served spells as coach, assistant manager and kit man. As well as his European Cup winners' medal, Clark also won four league championships, three Scottish Cups and four League Cups during his playing career. In a 25-minute eulogy, renowned Scottish football commentator Archie Macpherson hailed Clark as the 'most modest and genial footballer' he had ever encountered. The broadcaster also shared his memories of the final whistle in Lisbon. 'I remember the scenes well. I remember the scenes of the players at the end, utterly exhausted and the supporters pouring on. The goals themselves you all know about, you've seen them so often,' he told mourners. 'And, yes, the word has been used – immortal – about Stein and the others, and that is the case. 'For myself, personally, I am simply a privileged man to have been there and rubbed shoulders with the greats, saw in that glorious sunshine a Scottish victory that nobody will ever forget. 🍀 The Funeral Mass for Lisbon Lion, John Clark, took place today (July 4) at St Mary's Church, Calton, as his family and many footballing friends and former colleagues gathered to pay tribute to a great Celtic man. — Celtic Football Club (@CelticFC) July 4, 2025 'And John was part of that, the wee Lanarkshire boy who grew up wanting to be an aristocrat in football, and attained it. 'But, he showed his other side by becoming the kit man at Celtic Park. And I remember so many times from different players talking about how this man could suddenly do that, and he did it simply. 'He wanted Celtic still to be a success, and although he wore his boots magnificently, he also carried other people's boots and their jerseys just to keep Celtic going. 'That gives you an idea of another side of his personality. Yes, I'm honoured to have met him, honoured to have been in Lisbon and certainly honoured to be with you today.' After the service, hundreds of fans braved wet and windy weather outside Celtic's Parkhead stadium to pay their own tributes as the cortege passed. The mourners gathered at Celtic Park in response to an invite to send a 'final farewell to one of the club's greatest ever servants'. The fans applauded as a cortege passed by the stadium.

Caitlin Clark fans vow to boycott ESPN after analyst's scathing criticism of WNBA star
Fans of Caitlin Clark are calling to boycott ESPN after the Indiana Fever star was on the receiving end of some harsh criticism from their analyst. Indiana star Clark has dominated the WNBA since being drafted into the league last year, however has endured some hardship in recent weeks. A groin injury meant Clark missed their game against the Las Vegas Aces, with the Fever not missing a beat, downing one of the league's best franchises 81-54. After the match, ESPN analyst Carolyn Peck made the bold claim that the Fever were better without the reigning Rookie of the Year in their side. Peck said: 'I think that Indiana is even more dangerous when Caitlin Clark doesn't play. She's a ball-dominant guard. 'The ball is in her hands a lot, so you know what you need to try to take away.' ESPN analyst Carolyn Peck claimed that the Fever were better off without Clark in the side ESPN's Carolyn Peck says the Fever are more dangerous WITHOUT Caitlin Clark 💀💀💀 Their hatred toward CC needs to be studied 😭 — BricksCenter (@BricksCenter) July 4, 2025 The clip was posted onto social media and, shortly afterwards, the replies were flooded with 'CC' fans calling to boycott the network. One user wrote: 'Who watches ESPN bro? Boycott that useless network'. 'ESPN's narrative continues,' another said. 'Crazy levels of hate for the person who brought wnba to relevancy', said one fan. 'We gotta stop letting some people stop talking basketball,' another wrote. Clark also missed Tuesday's Commissioner's Cup Final victory, with Indiana handing the Minnesota Lynx only their third loss of the season. The sophomore phenom has now missed more games for the Fever this season than she has played, as the team is 5-4 without her, and 4-4 with Clark in the lineup. The former Iowa guard missed five games at the beginning of the WNBA season with a quadriceps injury and has no stated timetable for her return to the court in present day. Fans of Caitlin Clark were quick to hit back at the criticism and call to boycott ESPN Clark's next chance to play will be Saturday evening at home against the Los Angeles Sparks. That contest will be two weeks before the WNBA All-Star Game in Indianapolis, where Clark was voted a captain despite her multiple absences. Clark was named an All-Star Game captain by being one of the two players receiving the most fan votes. Lynx star Napheesa Collier and Clark will now have the opportunity to draft from a pool of the other WNBA All-Stars to create two teams ahead of the festivities. Clark gets her second All-Star selection in her sophomore professional season, having represented 'Team WNBA' in last year's extravaganza against Team USA before the Paris Olympics.
