Caitlin Clark earned a hilariously fitting nickname during All-Star weekend

Caitlin Clark's impact on the WNBA is oft discussed and dissected, and, as it turns out, it also provides fodder for a few light jokes from her fellow players on the court. Courtney Williams and Natisha Hiedeman made that all too clear during the pair's July 23 StudBudz stream, when the former revealed she has a new nickname for Clark: the president.

The nickname reveal came while Williams and Hiedeman were explaining they ran into a few problems at All-Star — namely that they were told they couldn't certain events or access specific spaces.

"They tryna tell me i couldn’t be here and there," Hiedeman said, and Williams jumped in, "So you had to call in the president" before she elaborated and revealed Clark is "the president."

The StudBudz have made their affection for Clark known before. Back in June the pair were among the first to offer support after Clark's teammate Sophie Cunningham went to battle against the Sun's Jacy Sheldon — a decision that resulted in multiple ejections in the final minute of a game — and agreed they would both "crash out" if a fellow Lynx teammate was targeted the way Clark was.

"f that ever happened, you better crash out behind me," Hiedeman said, "because I’m crashing out behind you."

The StudBudz have attracted controversy recently

As much as the StudBudz are adored by WNBA fans, the pair have also attracted a little bit of controversy of late. Some fans were incensed when Williams revealed they might have Barstool Sports founder Dave Portnoy on the stream, especially since he has a history of firing verbal and written attacks at Angel Reese.

Portnoy himself has used the word "hate" in reference to Reese as recently as July 19 — and is also a major fan of Caitlin Clark.

Williams swiftly defended the possibility that they might interview Portnoy. "I’ll have a conversation with ANYBODY tbh. Don’t mean I rock with their views or the things that they’ve done. And quite frankly I’ll address ANYBODY. We getting a lil clout and I guess yall forgetting how we give it up," she wrote via social media.

There are also plenty of fans who like the idea of Portnoy coming on the show, whether that's because they agree with him or they support the idea of Williams and Hiedeman welcoming a guest who they may not align with.

The StudBudz stream has played a major role in bringing a lot of positive attention to the WNBA, especially since All-Star — and to a degree, fans may need to just sit back and trust Williams and Hiedeman to navigate the situation the way they think they should.
