Diana Taurasi predicted that Caitlin Clark will experience "reality" as she transitions from college to the WNBA level.
Caitlin Clark fans criticized Taurasi for expressing jealousy towards the all-time great WNBA star, but it turns out Taurasi may have been right.
Clark has faced numerous challenges in her first two regular-season games.
The No. 1 overall pick scored 20 points in her first game but turned the ball over 10 times.
In her second game against the Liberty, she scored only two points and struggled with foul trouble and turnovers.
Twitter user Caitlin Clark initially believed Diana Taurasi was hatin, but after a spurt to 9 points at the end of the third quarter, the adjustment continues.
Another person expressed regret for referring to Diana Taurasi as a hater, but she was praised for her culinary skills, urging others to apologize to her.
Clark scored nine points in her home opener, averaging 2-8 from three, with seven rebounds, six assists, five fouls, and three turnovers.
The Fever defeated the Hurricanes 102-66, bringing their season record to 0-2.
