Sheryl Swoopes is continuing her beef with Caitlin Clark fans.
Last week, Swoopes fired back at Clark fans trying to get her fired after they believed she had dissed the Indiana Fever star during a Dallas Wings broadcast.

“FYI, I am not employed by the WNBA.”
“No, it’s in response to y’all saying the WNBA should fire me. I am not employed by them. Do y’all ask
@stephenasmith and others to acknowledge other W players? I mean, there are so many great players to talk about in the league. It is OK to do that!”
Swoopes did not work the latest Dallas Wings game vs the Indiana Fever and fans noticed she was absent in the booth.
While responding to questions on social media, Swoopes revealed that she never intended to call the game and said she has nothing against Caitlin but dislikes her “evil” and “ugly” fans.
FYI, I was never supposed to do the game. Also, I do not hate Caitlin. It's a lot of her fans that are just flat out mean and evil. I see that does not apply to you.

I appreciate that. Please know that I do not dislike or hate her. I like her game too. It's all of the ugly fans that I don't care for. Thank you

Swoopes went on to share a DM she sent to Clark earlier this year in which personally apologized for earlier comments in which it appeared she had taken a shot at Clark.
