Indiana Fever (DR)
The playoffs are about to begin in the WNBA and many people will follow the adventures of Caitlin Clark and the Fever during this postseason. Despite everything, the leader is far from convincing, including the legend Sheryl Swoopes. But her comments are controversial.
Caitlin Clark has taken the WNBA to another level this season, even though she’s not necessarily the best player, not with A’ja Wilson in the mix.
Still, the Fever’s ratings are through the roof, as are ticket prices and everything that goes with it. Good publicity for the league, even if it might create a little jealousy among others.
This is the case of Angel Reese, who felt that she was also responsible for this success, as if she did not want to be forgotten. She can also count on a strong support: Sheryl Swoopes, 4 times champion and three times MVP. A true legend, although her career today is much more controversial since she left the courts.
Caitlin Clark questioned by a legend
The reason? Her treatment of Clark and her barely concealed support for the Sky and therefore Angel Reese. She made a similar speech in the last Gilbert Arenas podcast, estimating that Reese’s season was more impressive than Clark’s, despite her 19.5 points, 8.4 assists and 5.7 rebounds average.
And when asked if Clark is dominating this season, his answer is clear:
Swoopes on Clark : “Those are impressive numbers. But to me, that’s not called dominating. Angel Reese or Caitlin Clark? They’re not dominating this season, although Clark is a different player today than she was in the first game.”
A lot of bad faith on the part of Swoopes, who has never had a season as good statistically as Clark for your information. On social networks, Internet users are angry.
Sheryl Swoopes is ready to destroy WNBA history, including herself, before admitting she was wrong about Caitlin Clark.
LeBron has Skip (Bayless). Caitlin has Swoopes.
No matter what Sheryl Swoopes says, Caitlin Clark has been dominating since she arrived in the WNBA. Impressive numbers for the Fever player, even if the hardest part starts in a few days. It’s promising.
