Social media erupted this weekend over an alleged racial comment WNBA player Brittney Griner made about opponent Caitlin Clark, who is white.Unconfirmed reports floated on X and Instagram highlighting video of Griner after she fouled out of Friday’s game against the Indian Fever, the team Clark plays for. Griner’s alleged to have made a comment about Clark and the referee being “f***ing white girls.”“Brittney Griner, whom Biden traded for the Merchant of Death, called Caitlin Clark and the white female ref: ‘Trash, f***ing white girls’ after getting fouled out,” Outkick reporter Bobby Burack posted, captioning video of the alleged incident.Brittney Griner, whom Biden traded for the Merchant of Death, called Caitlin Clark and the white female ref: “Trash, fucking white girls” after getting fouled out.Any comment @McNuttMonica, @chiney, @therealknelson?(H/T: @bobbyn0824)pic.twitter.com/QmWnehiJmd— Bobby Burack (@burackbobby_) May 24, 2025As highlighted by Burack, Griner was released from a Russian jail after former President Biden swapped Griner for a notorious Russian arms dealer named Viktor Bout, dubbed the “Merchant of Death.” The controversial swap has only added to the recent politically-charged alleged incident. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Hoops Hall (@hoopshall)Comments online say a full-blown investigation would have been launched if the alleged racial comment was made against a black player. Others stood up for Clark and suggested some in the WNBA are jealous of her success.“Holy s*** this is getting ridiculous,” one comment liked by hundreds of people reads. “[Caitlin Clark] is the WNBA’s generational player that is finally going to put this league on the map and these women can’t get over their petty jealousy and enjoy the fruits about to come their way.”Memorial Day Sale – Get 40% Off New DailyWire+ Annual Memberships“Why is everything about race in the WNBA,” another top post says.Another person wrote, “Imagine 200 women self destructing themselves just because one woman is better. F***ing sad.”“Let a white chick say some[thing] like that and it’s a problem,” one post read.Notably, Griner seemed to complain about Clark bringing in new fans to the WNBA last year, suggesting some of them are racist.“I don’t appreciate the new fans that sit there and yell racial slurs at myself, my teammates, and the people that I play against because, yeah, those are my best opponents but those are friends too,” Griner said at the time.Brittney Griner claims WNBA fans are screaming racial slurs at her and other players. This is a lie.
