NEED TO KNOW
- Caitlin Clark says her injury rehab has doubled as a streaming marathon.
- The Fever star claims she’s now the “LeBron James of binge-watching.”
- Teammates worry she’s on pace to sprain her thumb from the remote.
INDIANAPOLIS, IN — After weeks of soft tissue injuries keeping her off the court, Indiana Fever guard Caitlin Clark revealed she’s been putting her downtime to good use: conquering every single Netflix recommendation the algorithm throws at her.
“What started as a couple of documentaries turned into a full-blown training camp for my couch endurance,” Clark admitted, balancing an ice pack on her groin while scrolling for her next watch. “I can’t dunk yet, but I can finish a 10-part true crime series without blinking. That’s growth.”
Her teammates say she’s become something of a legend in the locker room, often recommending obscure docuseries before practice. “She told me I needed to watch a Korean dating show about people trapped in a gym,” said one teammate. “I thought she was kidding, but then she gave me episode-by-episode notes.”
While the Fever have maintained a strong record without her, the organization is reportedly exploring a “Netflix & Rehab” program for other injured players. Team doctors caution that excessive remote control use could cause “repetitive strain injuries,” but Clark insists she’s building mental toughness.
“If I can survive five seasons of a British baking competition without snacks in the house, I can survive anything,” Clark said. “It’s all about discipline.”
