Aubrey Plaza joins Caitlin Clark, Indiana Fever for hilarious practice
· Yahoo Sports
While the Indiana Fever have quite a lengthy list of celebrity fans, actress and comedian Aubrey Plaza hilariously decided to test her basketball skills against three-time WNBA All-Star Caitlin Clark during a team practice in New York earlier this season.
In a 3:32 video released by NBC before Indiana's 109-75 rout of the Las Vegas Aces on Sunday night, the noticeably pregnant Plaza observed the team from afar, attempted to impose her own obscure coaching techniques on Lexie Hull, and even played one-on-one basketball against the former Hawkeye.

In the segment of the video where she plays one-on-one with Clark, Plaza can be seen mimicking (or at least accusing Clark of mimicking) her stretching routine before pestering the Fever franchise point guard into a missed shot.
While Plaza had hoped that the league's new collective bargaining agreement would have opened even the slightest crack for her to achieve her WNBA dreams, she might need to improve both her basketball skills and overall endurance to be considered.
Until then, she'll have to continue practicing on the court while focusing on earning Emmys and Golden Globes for her acting and producing career instead.
