Whenever Caitlin Clark and the Indiana Fever play, it typically becomes a must-watch event for sports fans, particularly when the matchup is against one of the top teams in the WNBA.

WNBA Legend Thinks Fever Should Rest Caitlin Clark - The Spun

On Saturday, Clark and the Fever went up against Sabrina Ionescu and the New York Liberty, the top team in the league. Unsurprisingly, it was landmark event that drew a ton of eyeballs and reactions on social media.

While a lot of fans, media members, and even players took to X to get their takes and opinions off regarding Clark’s impressive triple-double in the win, one reaction, in particular, is catching some heat.

New York Knicks star Josh Hart’s wording in his praise for Clark caught some by surprise.

Hart was obviously talking about Clark’s ability to shoot after a game in which she had 19 points, 13 assists, and 12 rebounds. However, the strange sexual innuendo present in the phrasing is what is turning some heads.

A lot of other fans also enjoyed that the unspecificity of the tweet conjured up memories of MLB great CC Sabathia, who would often be “throwing that thang” about a decade ago.

Whatever he was talking about, a lot of jokes are being made at Hart’s expense right now, with the tweet getting over 2 million impressions on X.
