Caitlin Clark continues to break records in her third WNBA season. From All-time NCAA Division I leading scorer, single-season and career 3-point leader, to becoming the player with the most career games with at least 30 points and 10 assists, Caitlin Clark keeps raising the bar. Yet NCAA March Madness Women’s Basketball handle appeared to leave her out while celebrating some of the biggest former college basketball record setters who are now making history in the WNBA.

“They made their mark in college. Now they’re setting records on the biggest stage,” NCAA WBB wrote on X in a tribute post highlighting former NCAA players setting records in the WNBA.

The post celebrated A’ja Wilson joining Diana Taurasi as the only player with 100 career 25-plus-point games, Paige Bueckers becoming the fastest to reach 1,400 points and 400 assists, Olivia Miles recording the second-most assists by a WNBA rookie, and Angel Reese setting the single-game and single-season rebounding marks. Yet despite all those milestones being featured, Clark’s name was nowhere in the video. Unsurprisingly, her fans were quick to make their frustration known on X.

“Your intentional exclusion of the most explosive, globally loved player in history, is disgusting, disgraceful and extreme cowardice…” one fan wrote.

The frustration comes just days after the Indiana Fever’s matchup against the Chicago Sky that drew 3.31 million viewers, making it the most-watched WNBA regular-season game since the league’s inaugural 1997 season. Clark’s presence was obviously part of the attention surrounding the Fever, even as the buzz around Sophie Cunningham also added to the game’s appeal.

Further fueling the criticism was NCAA WBB’s decision to highlight Olivia Miles for having the second-most assists by a WNBA rookie.

“I wonder who is 1st that could’ve been posted,” one fan sarcastically wrote. The obvious answer was Clark, who finished her rookie season with 337 assists, the most in WNBA history for a rookie. However, Clark’s case for inclusion did not end there.

“Who has the most 30+/10+ games in league history? Who has the record for assists in a game? Just going to ignore the player that has set plenty of records,” another X user wrote.

The timing was particularly notable. On August 23, Clark had dropped 37 points and 10 assists against the Sky, reaching another remarkable milestone. It was the fifth 30-point, 10-assist game of her WNBA career, while every other player in league history has combined for only four such games. That was enough for some fans to demand action against whoever was responsible for the post.

“Whoever made this needs to be fired lol. You left out the leading ncaa scorer and someone that smashed a plethora of wnba records her rookie year, and still is in her 3rd,” one fan wrote.

Meanwhile, not everyone believed the omission was accidental. Some suspected NCAA WBB was deliberately leaving Clark out because her name alone could generate the kind of reaction that drives engagement.

“Bait for interactions.. everyone’s doing it. Caitlin Clark delivers virality for all things WBB,” another user suggested.

Nonetheless, the backlash was hardly surprising. Clark has continued to pile up records this WNBA season, including marks involving fastest to 700 assists, fastest to 1000+ points, 250+ rebounds, and 250+ assists, and most 20-point, 10-assist games in a season. With that kind of resume, fans clearly felt Clark had earned a place in a post celebrating former NCAA stars making history in the WNBA. No wonder her absence became the very thing everyone was talking about.
