- Clark refrained from taking a clear stance on whether trans athletes should be allowed in the WNBA, deferring the decision to the league's governing body.
- Her Indiana Fever teammate, Sophie Cunningham, opposes changing current policies on trans athlete participation, preferring to maintain the status quo.
- Analyst Dan Dakich harshly criticized Clark for her non-committal response, accusing her of avoiding standing up for female athletes and questioning her maturity.
