Erica Wheeler, Caitlin Clark's teammate on the Indiana Fever, was like every fan on Instagram when she commented on "The Shade Room's" content about rapper Rubi Rose and singer Usher. Her response – which showed her in splits – was to Usher's facial expression at what Rose and her friend were doing.
"USHER is all of us right now," she posted.
In the video, Rubi Rose and an unidentified friend played with a cherry, much to the delight of those present during the concert. As the event unfolded, Usher stood and looked shocked at what was happening in front of him.
Erica Wheeler is spending her offseason keeping a low profile, unlike her Indiana Fever teammate Caitlin Clark.
Last season for the Indiana Fever, her sixth season with the franchise, she averaged 3.6 points, 1.8 assists and 1.4 rebounds. She scored a season-high 15 points against the Seattle Storm.
