Sharpshooter Clark has drawn comparisons to Golden State Warriors star Steph Curry for her ability to shoot logo 3s and score from anywhere on the court, but Peyton Manning still thinks she has one major flaw.
The legendary NFL QB enjoys watching Clark play, but says the Fever rookie has one glaring shortcoming - she's a Kansas City Chiefs fan.
“It’s awesome and, like I said, I really enjoyed getting to know Caitlin even more,” said Manning, who was a star in Indianapolis where Clark now plays her home games.
“Throughout this series, she was a guest on our show, the Monday night show, last year.

"She’s a Chiefs fan. I forgive her for that, but she said she did grow up kind of watching me play and she’s going to love Indianapolis. I gave her all of my contacts at the airport, at St. Elmo’s and it’s a great place for her to play, I’m looking forward to watching her.”
The 22-year-old Clark grew up in Des Moines, Iowa, and is a lifelong Chiefs fan.
In November last year, she told Eli and Peyton Manning that from a young age she would join her family and make a pilgrimage from Des Moines to Kansas City each year to watch a Chiefs game at Arrowhead Stadium.
Clark has been treated in recent seasons thanks to the genius of Andy Reid and the heroics of Patrick Mahomes.

Like Taylor Swift, Clark was at Arrowhead last season to cheer the Chiefs on and was in attendance for the Christmas Day loss to the Las Vegas Raiders.

The reigning world champs posted a childhood photo of Clark wearing Chiefs gear to social media and expressed their support.
