Los Angeles Sparks star Kelsey Plum said she was joking when she took a verbal shot at Caitlin Clark and her team at the All-Star Game last month, comments that drew significant pushback. “I made a really bad joke,” Plum said on Sue Bird's “Bird's Eye View” podcast that dropped Friday.

Kelsey Plum won’t be quitting her day job to become a comedian. The WNBA star admitted recently that she messed up when she attempted to jokingly zing Caitlin Clark and her “Team Clark” members for missing a meeting to discuss wearing the viral “Pay us what you owe us” shirts at the All-Star Game in July.

Sparks guard Kelsey Plum said on Sue Bird's podcast that her remarks after the All-Star Game about members of Team Clark not being present for the "Pay Us What You Owe Us" T-shirt meeting were "a really bad joke" about the players being hungover.
