WNBA broadcaster Sheryl Swoopes revealed the story behind why she was pulled from her spot as a Wings broadcaster amid Caitlin Clark controversies.
WNBA Hall of Famer Sheryl Swoopes addressed a controversial absence from the broadcast booth for the Dallas Wings that occurred earlier this year, a game that featured Caitlin Clark and the Indiana Fever. Swoopes has been a harsh critic of Clark, sometimes inciting backlash from WNBA and media peers like Stephen A. Smith and Nancy Lieberman. Swoopes did not serve as color commentator for the Wings broadcast on Bally Sports Southwest in the team's game against the Fever on Sept. 1.
Swoopes blamed confusion over the interruption of the COVID-19 pandemic on the 2020-2021 college basketball season for the mistake of suggesting Clark played a fifth year on the podcast. INSIDE CAITLIN CLARK AND ANGEL REESE'S IMPACT ON MEN'S BASKETBALL 'With COVID and all of those things, I thought, honest mistake, but maybe I'm not allowed to make those. I thought it was Caitlin's fifth year,' Swoopes said.
