Brittany Mahomes has Caitlin Clark’s back. The former soccer star and the wife of Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes, wants the rookie WNBA player to keep doing her best in every game.
The shoutout from Mahomes came after Clark faced a blatant push from Chicago Sky guard Chennedy Carter on June 1. Initially, the referee refrained from severely penalizing Carter and did not even take the help of the on-field camera for better judgment.
However, after the game ended, the WNBA committee reviewed the tackle, and they had to act. A spokesperson disclosed that Carter’s push was elevated to a flagrant-1 violation.

Mahomes was among the few who received the opportunity of a lifetime earlier this year. Sports Illustrated picked her as one of the cover models for their 60th-anniversary edition of the SI Swimsuit.
