Since the start of the WNBA season and even more so since the return of the Olympic Games, Caitlin Clark has been the talk of the town.

Once again pushed around by an opponent during her last game, the point guard is at the heart of all the debates. Gilbert Arenas made the comparison with Victor Wembanyama.

Since the end of the Olympic Games, some basketball fans have been complaining about no longer having games to follow on a daily basis, which is not entirely true, since the WNBA season resumed just a few days after Team USA’s victory against the French team.

Moreover, our French player Gabby Williams will be a good reason to tune in to this championship.

And that’s not all, because Caitlin Clark, presented as a phenomenon for many years, seems to have taken advantage of the international break to move into another dimension.

Indiana has had two big wins since the restart, and the point guard is finally on the same wavelength as her teammates. What if they were the good surprise of the playoffs?

Gilbert Arenas honest about the Caitlin Clark case

One thing is certain, is that her opponents will not let her do it because she arouses jealousy.

Earlier this week, for example, she was seriously jostled by the legend Skylar Diggins-Smith on the court. Images that made Gilbert Arenas react, who does not understand the difference in mentality between the WNBA and the NBA:

There are players with whom you can’t allow certain things. Even if it’s always tempting to haze them on the court, you can’t haze just anyone. 99% of players go through it and that’s normal.

This year in the NBA, all the rookies are going to get walked over and jostled.

They are not special enough to escape it.

But Victor Wembanyama last year? No one tried to crush her.

LeBron James? Kobe Bryant? No one tried to haze them on the court. No one ever pushed Stephen Curry or tried to fight him.

If the WNBA girls don’t want to be targeted by hateful comments, they can’t touch Caitlin Clark.

For Gilbert Arenas, there are talents who must rise above hazing because they are so special, and especially because they are supported by fans.

Caitlin Clark would be in this category with Victor Wembanyama, LeBron James, Kobe Bryant or Stephen Curry, which is to say her impact on the WNBA. But her opponents don’t seem to be of the same opinion.

Attacking Caitlin Clark on the court is taking the risk of creating a bad buzz on social networks.

For this reason alone, Gilbert Arenas believes that the point guard should be left alone, just as Victor Wembanyama is left alone in the NBA.
