Green, who was suspended during the 2023-24 NBA season due to an in-game incident, wrote on Instagram that the Fever need an enforcer.
"Indiana better go invest in an enforcer… FAST!" he wrote in the comments section of an ESPNW post.
Others on social media agreed with Green’s take. Carter herself liked a post on X that suggested the Fever have no one to stick up for Clark in situations like those.
