26 May

- Fans speculated a narrative against Caitlin Clark following the false report.
A false claim circulated suggesting Azzi Fudd had set a new WNBA rookie record for 3-pointers in a single game. Fudd achieved a career-high 24 points, including six successful 3-pointers, in her team's victory. However, this number does not surpass the existing rookie record.
The record for the most 3-pointers made by a rookie in a single game is jointly held by Indiana Fever star Caitlin Clark and former WNBA player Crystal Robinson. Clark achieved seven 3-pointers on June 7, 2024, matching Robinson's 1999 record.
This inaccurate report led to significant fan reactions on social media, with some users expressing belief in a deliberate attempt to downplay Caitlin Clark's achievements. The post making the false claim was reportedly deleted shortly after.
In other recent news, Caitlin Clark was honored as the grand marshal for the Indianapolis 500 NASCAR race. She delivered the traditional pre-race command to drivers at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway on May 26, 2024, marking her first appearance at the event.
