During a half-time interview, Plum was asked about the Aces’ defensive strategy, and after a short delay, she said, “I don’t know. Come back to me later.” In the second half, the Aces prevented the Fever from making a comeback. The two-time WNBA champion was asked to reflect on the win, and she said, “I don’t know. We have good players.”
Kelsey Plum Responds To Her “Rude” Comments After Beating Fever
In a post-game interview, Kelsey Plum was informed about the social media backlash after her mid-game comment on Clark and Fever. The three-time WNBA All-Star responded, “I mean, I thought we did a great job as a team, but Kelsey Mitchell was cooking. She had a couple on me as well, so I didn’t want to say anything stupid. So I just said come back to me.”
Plum’s teammate Chelsea Gray, who was also at the interview, teased her by saying, “Perfect answer.” The 30-year-old also talked about her “good players” comment, saying, “I don’t even have social media on my phone. No offense but, like, we have good players. I would hope so. Not disrespectful. We have competitors — pick one. That’s what I meant. People these days don’t say the truth.”
In Friday’s win, Aces guard Chelsea Gray registered a game-high 21 points with six assists, followed by Plum’s 18-point game. Kelsey Mitchell led the Fever in scoring with 20 points, while Caitlin Clark finished with 18 points, eight rebounds, and nine assists.

Nick Bosa may have landed himself in hot water with the NFL following his actions after the San Francisco 49ers beat the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday night.
The Niners enjoyed a 30-24 win over Dallas in the ‘SNF’ fixture. Quarterback Brock Purdy had a stellar game, completing 18 of 26 passing attempts for 260 yards and a touchdown while showing some surprising athleticism as a scrambler.
Bosa also had an impressive outing as he made life pretty difficult for the Cowboys offensive line, also making three tackles, a sack, and two QB hits.
After the game, he popped up behind Purdy while the QB was being interviewed and pointed to his “Make America Great Again” hat before running toward the locker room.
