In a video posted by the Colts' official X handle, Timpson can be seen wearing a No. 2 Colts jersey, while McDonald wore the No. 21, the same number she sports for the Fever. Clark on the other hand was seen in white overalls while holding up a No. 22 jersey with her name printed on the back.
While her two teammates had no qualms wearing the jerseys, CC is a self-proclaimed Kansas City Chiefs fan and declined to wear the personalized jersey.
