About

The WNBA Players Bushes Meme, also known as the WNBA Players Pubes Meme or LA Sparks Indiana Fever Box Score, refers to a meme that guesses the pubic hair patterns or styles of professional women's basketball players Caitlin Clark, Kelsey Plum, Cameron Brink and Sophie Cunningham of the Los Angeles Sparks and Indiana Fever WNBA teams. The meme was first posted to the /r/nbacirclejerk subreddit in early July 2025. It was later reposted to Twitter / X by a user named @hoodiiidurant. The tweet sparked controversy and backlash on X, as some called it the "worst tweet of all time" in viral quote-tweets. The image also became an exploitable template as other players or public figures were added to it, and the pube patterns were replaced with other topics.
