According to Indiana Fever guard Lexie Hull, that viral Caitlin Clark-Stephanie White confrontation from Saturday's Portland Fever loss has already evaporated into the ether for Indy.
While appearing on Yahoo Sports Daily on Monday, Hull spoke about the "frustrations" that stem from that viral moment that saw White and Clark have a brief tiff during a game break in the heat of the moment.
COMMENTARY: The Caitlin Clark double standard is real and suffocating
Hull explained that the tense interaction didn't linger much longer with the Fever after it happened.
"There's frustration," Hull said about the clip. "We noticed [Portland was] trying to pick on Caitlin a little bit on [the] defense end. She was getting called for some fouls; fouls aren't fun. She got in some foul trouble; our team got into some foul trouble, and that's just all it was.
"I think that's part of the game. There's frustrations that rise, and decisions have to be made. Ultimately, this wasn't something that carried on... [it's not something that is] talked about now in our locker room, talked about even later on in the game. That's just something that happened."
Hull is right by saying that the cameras are always on Clark because of how popular she is; that's probably not going to change in the future.
While this moment blew up because of who it was and what happened, Hull makes it seem like the Fever have already moved on and that there's no lingering awkwardness over the viral encounter.
