Overall, things should be pretty great for Fever head coach Stephanie White and her squad with the WNBA playoffs in sight.In reality, the situation in Indiana is completely unsettled, and White was reminded of that on Tuesday night when some fans booed her during pregame introductions ahead of the Fever's home contest against the New York Liberty.Head coach Stephanie White of the Indiana Fever looks on against the Chicago Sky during the first half at United Center on August 08, 2026 in Chicago, Illinois.(Photo by Michael Reaves/Getty Images) (Michael Reaves/Getty Images)FEVER COACH STEPHANIE WHITE LAUNCHES FIERY DEFENSE OF HERSELF AFTER SOPHIE CUNNINGHAM HITClark addressed the boos her head coach received during her postgame press conference following Indiana's 106-92 win, and she was none too pleased."I hated that our fans booed her before the game," Clark explained.
"That made me a little sick, to be honest.We're going to ride for her, and we're always going to have her back," Clark continued.
"That's never going to tear our locker room apart."White hearing some boos while being introduced in her own team's building came shortly after she delivered quite the pregame rant about Indiana's Sophie Cunningham and the hard foul she took over the weekend from Chicago's DiJonai Carrington, and the overall boiling tensions around the league.White explained Tuesday that she didn't, in real time, get to see replays of the foul that left Cunningham with a bloody mouth and Carrington being ejected from the game before going directly to her postgame press conference."Was it egregious? Absolutely," White said."When you have a chance to watch that over and over and over on replay, you can see that.
I didn't have that in real time."CAITLIN CLARK, KELSEY MITCHELL POWER FEVER PAST LIBERTY, LIFT INDIANA ATOP EASTERN CONFERENCEHead coach Stephanie White and Caitlin Clark #22 of the Indiana Fever watch on during a game against the Golden State Valkyries on May 28, 2026 at Chase Cent...
