Antonio Brown appears intent on stirring controversy around Caitlin Clark as she prepares for her WNBA debut with the Indiana Fever.
Clark, a standout from Iowa, is set to play her first professional game tonight against the Dallas Wings in Arlington, Texas.
The former NFL star has been persistently targeting WNBA rookie Caitlin Clark, a basketball prodigy who has captured the attention of the sports world. Brown announced that he has secured courtside seats for Clark’s debut game, continuing his troubling behavior towards her.

Last month, Clark blocked Brown on the social media platform X after he made inappropriate comments about her physical appearance, including an offensive post that referenced her body. His initial comments compared her to actor Mel Gibson, escalating to the remarks that led to his block.
While Clark has not publicly responded to these comments, the situation is tense, and it’s uncertain how she might react to seeing Brown at her game.
The Indiana Fever, having selected Clark as the first overall pick in the WNBA Draft, are looking to her to herald a new era of success. During her college career at Iowa, Clark had a record-breaking run, scoring the most points ever in an NCAA tournament with 191, surpassing the long-standing record held by Sheryl Swoopes.
In the midst of this, Brown took a derogatory jab at the WNBA on his X account. He posted a photo showing a Lamborghini in the driveway of a dilapidated house, suggesting that Clark was the high-performance car while the WNBA represented the rundown building.
This comparison has added to the controversy surrounding his views on the league and its new star player.
