Caitlin Clark’s game really hasn’t changed much since high school, she’s just gotten quicker and even more polished. She doesn’t have the flashiest handles. She isn’t the most athletic, the tallest, or the strongest player on the floor. Yet she’s averaging 21 points, 4 rebounds, and 8 assists in...

The WNBA has completely mismanaged its biggest star in Caitlin Clark and it’s sad to see. Caitlin Clark didn’t do it alone and there are a number of current and former players who helped pave and maintain the way, but Caitlin Clark has been the primary catalyst for the WNBA’s new media rights deal, new CBA, having to move games to bigger arenas, getting private chartered flights and so much more. Yet when she is targeted in ways on the court that aren’t about basketball, it’s brushed aside as “physicality” or “just the way we play in the W”. No. What Alyssa Thomas did to Caitlin Clark was not about basketball. What Alyssa Thomas did to Angel Reese was not about basketball. It was a cheap shot. It was dirty. It was done on purpose. And it’s hurting the WNBA as a whole. What’s also sad is that because of the mismanagement of Caitlin Clark by the WNBA as a whole, the fact that HISTORICALLY INCREDIBLE BASKETBALL IS BEING PLAYED in the WNBA and it’s not being talked about enough. Marina Mabrey tied the WNBA record for most points in a game with 53 points, 6 Rebs, 2 assists and tied the WNBA record by hitting NINE 3’s for the Toronto Tempo 🤯 Rookie Olivia Miles broke Caitlin Clark and Paige Bueckers’ WNBA record for fastest to score 300 points and have 100 assists. Clark and Bueckers did it in 19 games, so Miles did it in 18. Olivia Miles has also lead the Minnesota Lynx, without star player Napheessa Collier, to the best record in the league and #1 in every major offensive statistic. Angel Reese just became the fastest player to get 1k rebounds. There is so much greatness happening in the WNBA, and it’s being ignored because people don’t want to celebrate it when the league won’t even protect its own players from unnecessary targeted behavior. Some people don’t want to celebrate the WNBA when the league won’t protect its most marketable player that is the driving force behind its increased awareness. But I will say the quiet part out loud. The facts today still show that far too many people are making things in the WNBA about race or sexuality and not the results. Drawing a line in the sand and defending any player’s dirty play just because of the color of their skin is wrong. We shouldn’t be denying the truth of what we see and situating or views of the truth along color lines. Caitlin Clark and every WNBA player wants to compete at the highest level. They are tough and the best female basketball players in the World. They don’t want to be involved in identity politics or race wars. They just want to play basketball. Right & wrong has no color. Alyssa Thomas was wrong for what she did. Caitlin Clark is a phenom, the WNBA has been wrong at so many turns with how they have handled her and the WNBA needs to improve its officiating. Olivia Miles was the right pick for Minnesota and is the runaway Rookie of the Year right now. Marina Mabrey was the right move for the Toronto Tempo. Angel Reese was the right move for the Atlanta Dream. Don’t pick sides based on the color of a player’s skin or their sexuality. Let’s just talk basketball. What Alyssa Thomas did wasn’t about basketball, she is rightfully getting crushed for it and got suspended. But everything doesn’t have to be a race war. It shouldn’t be. Via Outta Pocket with RGIII

Caitlin Clark isn’t just good—she’s a generational talent reshaping women’s basketball. From rewriting the NCAA record books at Iowa to exploding onto the WNBA scene as the No. 1 pick in 2024, Clark has delivered elite production at every level. Deep range that stretches defenses beyond the logo, laser precision on passes, elite vision as a playmaker, and the competitive fire to hunt big moments. In the pros she’s already a Rookie of the Year, multi-time All-Star, assists leader, and record-breaker—reaching career milestones in points and assists faster than anyone in league history. This season she’s averaging over 21 points and 8 assists while dropping triple-doubles and career-high scoring nights (including a 45-point explosion). She elevates teammates, fills arenas, and drives viewership like few athletes ever have. Yet for all that brilliance, Clark has also absorbed an unusual amount of physical punishment from opposing players. Hard fouls, late hits, and plays that go beyond standard contact have been a recurring theme since her rookie year—most notably the infamous Chennedy Carter hip-check and, more recently in 2026, Alyssa Thomas’s fist-to-the-throat contact during a scramble that drew no immediate whistle, later upgraded to a Flagrant 2 with a one-game suspension. Her coach has publicly called some of these “cheap shots” and “disrespectful,” and stats from earlier seasons showed her drawing a disproportionate share of flagrant fouls. Basketball is a contact sport, and every star gets tested. But the frequency and nature of some of the hits on Clark have sparked legitimate questions about consistency in officiating and whether the league’s biggest draw is being adequately protected. Through it all she’s largely stayed composed, focused on playing, and spoken out against the toxic harassment that has spilled over onto other players. What impresses you more about Caitlin Clark — her elite skill or the toughness she’s shown through all the physical play?

Angel Reese hates Caitlin Clark. It’s staring us all right in the face, but people are afraid to say it. Won’t answer questions about Caitlin Clark. Gets mad when people praise Caitlin Clark for the explosion of popularity around Women’s Basketball. Celebrates when her teammates flagrantly foul Caitlin Clark. Goes after and tries to punch Caitlin Clark after a routine “make them earn it foul” after Angel Reese fouled Aaliyah Boston with a push in the back that wasn’t called. That’s not just hate. That’s jealousy and resentment. Some people get uncomfortable when you say Angel Reese hates or is jealous of Caitlin Clark because of the complex racial history of America and the historical stereotypes of the angry or jealous Black Woman. I understand that. Angel Reese isn’t just some jealous Black woman. Angel is an NCAA Champion and great basketball player. She’s a competitor who has shown she doesn’t like how Caitlin Clark is crowned while she’s criticized for showing the same confidence and fire in her own way. That’s not an assumption, that’s what Angel Reese has said and shown us all. And yeah, that can turn into hate, jealousy and resentment. That’s what makes this rivalry real to a lot of viewers. Caitlin Clark is the most popular athlete in America and Angel Reese is the Isiah Thomas to Caitlin Clark’s Michael Jordan. That’s what will continue to raise the popularity of the WNBA. People care about rivalries. Rivalries aren’t built on handshakes. They are forged in fire, fouls, and pride. Angel Reese wants to beat and outshine Caitlin Clark. Angel Reese has said she is the Villain. That is sports. That’s the game. Angel Reese has beat Caitlin Clark, but never outshined her. Even when Angel won the national title, the First Lady wanted to see her and Caitlin Clark at the White House. Over time the hate and resentment has built up from all this. You could see it in her overreaction to the routine basketball play foul. I’m just the one not afraid to say it. ⬇️⬇️⬇️
