Social media posts from Minnesota Lynx coach and general manager Cheryl Reeve singling out Indiana Fever rookie Caitlin Clark have come under the spotlight recently in the wake of Clark being left off the roster for the 2024 U.S. Olympic women’s basketball team. 

But according to one report, USA Basketball is declining to address the matter.

Reeve, who was named earlier this year as the head coach for the women’s national team for the Summer Games in Paris, has faced scrutiny after several of her posts mentioning Clark resurfaced in the wake of USA Basketball’s decision not to select Clark for the 12-person roster.

On May 3, Reeve responded to a post on X from the WNBA teasing the Fever’s preseason game against the Dallas Wings. The post from the league included the image of several players – Clark was one of them. 

"ALSO in action tonight - @minnesotalynx vs @chicagosky 7pm CST," Reeve wrote in response. "Though fans won't be able to watch, #Lynx fans can go to the Lynx app to follow along via play by play. Or if you are in market, come to the game ... as we start the season off right." 

Reeve’s post also included two hashtags, "#12teams" and "#theWismorethanoneplayer," seemingly referencing the growing interest in Clark before her professional debut.
