There is no doubting that Caitlin Clark has changed the game of women’s basketball forever. She has entered the WNBA and set headlines and social media ablaze despite her team only having two wins so far this season.
Clark was the subject of a hard foul in her last game vs the New York Liberty and has since created controversy spanning several days around if the foul was legit or not.
Clark has been elevating women’s basketball since her days at Iowa and her rivalry with LSU and their former star Angel Reese. Reese has been the heel to Clark in the public eye, not only beating her on the court in previous meetings but also boasting about her own contributions to the game at a time when everyone is focused on Clark. This attention has lead to the sentiment Clark is getting unfair treatment and spotlight in the league.
Locally, the game vs the Fever has been moved to State Farm Arena to allow for bigger crowds to see Clark take on the Dream in Atlanta. Her presence is being felt in every city she shows up to as well as the TV ratings backing up her play as well.
