One could argue that the Indiana Fever and the Chicago Sky are the two teams that have the most passionate set of fans in the WNBA today. It goes without saying that this has a lot to do with Caitlin Clark and Angel Reese.

This type of intense fandom, however, does have its drawbacks. A perfect example of the same comes in the form of Sky fans turning on their own player after she shared a Caitlin Clark-related post on X (formerly Twitter).

This was the case for Chicago forward Isabelle Harrison after she recently shared Bleacher Report’s announcement about Caitlin Clark winning the WNBA Rookie of the Year award.

Apparently, some fans were not too pleased with Harrison paying homage to Clark, considering how it was Harrison’s own teammate, Angel Reese, who emerged as the biggest challenger to Clark’s ROTY claim.

Harrison replied to a now-deleted tweet calling out a fan for “harassing” her.

“Lord, season over and y’all still harassing me. Get a life!” Harrison wrote.

For what it’s worth, Harrison reposted all the WNBA awards, which means that this wasn’t an exclusive shoutout for Clark.

Harrison then revealed in a subsequent tweet that it was actually Sky fans who were lambasting her on social media.

“the wnba is still going to and continue to grow! but yeah, harassment from your own teams fanbase is crazywork !” she said.

A random fan then suggested that Harrison should just leave Chicago and instead join Clark in Indiana.

This prompted another revelation from the Sky veteran exposing the deplorable behavior of some Fever fans.

“I was getting called slurs after our Indy game too!” Harrison responded. “Smh people have to understand the harassment wasn’t just on one side but ALL sides. I’m not speaking about it so it can be one side vs the other. Thats weird. It’s the BEHAVIOR that needs to be better!!”

The competitive fire among the fans is great for the WNBA. As Harrison said, the league is continuing to grow.

However, there is also no denying that some fans just go overboard at times. This just casts a huge shadow on the rapid rise and forward movement of the league — especially when a fanbase turns on their own player.
