The irrational discourse around Caitlin Clark is neither fair to her or rooted in reality.
Leave Caitlin Clark alone. Enough is enough. She is a 22-year-old basketball player, not a world leader. Yet the way media and social media react to anything she says or does would make one think she is one of the most polarizing figures alive. When in fact, she, Clark addressed nearly every question one could have about her WNBA rookie season. But there is one bit that seems to have been red meat for carnival barkers.
It was also revealed that Clark was the most searched player on Basketball Reference for both the WNBA and NCAA, in every state. And no one is using that site to look up her race.It's almost as if everyone forgets she set the all-time college scoring record at Iowa, while leading the nation in both points and assists. Then went into the professional ranks andClark is captivating on the court. Her logo threes have brought a dimension to the women's game that was not seen before.
Besides, Clark's comments were positive in nature and meant to be a recognition of her peers. One of the biggest benefits of the boost the league has seen since her arrival is that fans got to see how deep and talented the WNBA truly is. Her sentiment was probably appreciated by many. And anyone who didn't like what she said could have simply moved on.
