Caitlin Clark finally got the break she needed this week. Now everyone's ready to see if four days off will help change their results.
Now everyone's ready to see if four days off will help change their results.Despite Clark's selection as WNBA's rookie of the month for May, she and her new teammates have dealt with all kinds of frustrations — a brutally challenging schedule, limited practice time, the rookie's seemingly league-wide unwelcoming committee, even sub-par play.
Saturday afternoon's run-in with Chicago Sky guard Chennedy Carter created such a buzz that UConn coach Geno Auriemma told ESPN he believes Clark is being “targeted” and getting “beat up" — certainly not the type of treatment many want to see involving a potentially a game-changing star. “She's a human and I think she deserves to give herself some grace, and I think a lot of people around this world should, too,” Indiana guard Kelsey Mitchell said. “Not only is she human, she's a 22-year-old kid, technically, and I think that as she's going to transition, there's going to be things she'll experience that comes with time. I think the world should give her some grace.”Indiana's historically relentless schedule hasn't helped.
