Caitlin Clark had one simple request after the WNBA All-Star Draft, and it didn’t involve stat-chasing or winning matchups. She just wanted to be on Courtney Williams’ Twitch livestream. Unfortunately, she didn’t land the Lynx star on her team. Instead, Williams was selected by Team Collier, leaving Clark slightly heartbroken.
Clark, who snagged her dream duo of Aliyah Boston and Kelsey Mitchell early in the draft, lit up the room with chemistry and familiarity picks. But when it came time to select reserves, Napheesa Collier played spoiler by drafting Williams. “I’m sad, I wanted to be on her livestream,” Clark admitted. Thankfully, Williams quickly assured her: “Don’t worry girl, you’ll still be on there.”

Caitlin Clark Mutual Respect and Streaming Vibes
Williams and Clark have built a genuine bond, with the Lynx guard repeatedly praising Clark’s performances. Especially after her electric 32-point game against the Liberty. Their mutual support off the court is refreshing, and fans are thrilled at the possibility of seeing Clark join the “Studbudz” Twitch show during All-Star weekend.
Still, Clark might face a setback with her squad. A’ja Wilson, one of her top picks, exited Tuesday’s game with a wrist injury and will undergo an MRI. Her status for the July 19 All-Star Game remains uncertain. And if she can’t play, it would be a significant blow to Team Clark’s game plan and the overall star power of the weekend.
Looking Ahead to All-Star Weekend
While Team Clark boasts elite talent, including Boston, Mitchell, Kelsey Plum, and potentially Wilson, isn’t short on firepower either. With Breanna Stewart, Angel Reese, and Skylar Diggins-Smith in the mix, expect an exciting, fan-first showcase.
Whether Wilson suits up or not, one thing is clear: the All-Star weekend isn’t just about hoops, it’s about connection, community, and moments like Caitlin Clark and Williams making sure the vibes are just right.
