NaLyssa Smith, teammate of Caitlin Clark on the Indiana Fever, recently made headlines after removing references to the team from her social media bio following their WNBA play-off exit.
Her post-season message led to speculation about her future with the team, with some interpreting it as a potential farewell.
Smith responded to criticism on social media, stating, “Not too bad 4 a scrub,” in reference to her performance. While Smith had a strong season, she was overshadowed by rookie standout Caitlin Clark, who made the All-WNBA first team and finished fourth in MVP voting.
Fever executive Kelly Krauskopf praised Clark’s impact, suggesting her play could help the team attract top talent moving forward. Smith’s future with the Fever remains uncertain, with her contract running through next season.
