NBA Legends Explain Why Caitlin Clark is On a Different Level

Caitlin Clark is changing the game of women's basketball. See what NBA legends like Steph Curry have to say about her game. While some WNBA veterans still remain skeptical.

Swoops lost me when she said black people can't be racist.

[AngelEagle]

It is so kind and noble for the top NBA players to admit that Caitlin is the BEST PLAYER! It is disgusting to see the WNBA are jealous and mean to her. Caitlin is just silent and present - very high level player! She make it look easy!

[devilsadvocate]

How sad is it that Caitlin's all-time idol Taurasi, has nothing but comtempt for younger atheletes that she inspired!
That is one weird legacy!!!

Racism: Prejudice, discrimination or antagonism by an INDIVIDUAL, COMMUNITY or INSTITUTION against a person or people on the basis of their membership in a particular racial or ethnic group.

Anyone or group can be racist! To say or think that American blacks cannot be racist is a racist statement!

[davidwaskul]

The things this young lady is doing are simply unbelievable, this story just keeps getting better and better!!!!

[harbahwal]

I rarely watched basketball men or women before I watch now because of Caitlin Clark, her energy and vibes are contagious Very inspirational.

[Robert-udzk]

Special is an understatement.
There are many special players but CC is an Extraordinarily Exceptional Super Star ⭐️

[blaknyte]

Once in a while a special case comes along. Before Caitlin were the old talents (Taurasi, Swoops, Sue Bird) and then a new face barrels in. A girl who is white, talented and straight while the other women in the league are black, loud mouths, and gay. They’ve been in the WNBA but CC popped up the volume and prices started souring. Million dollar deals with big name brands while the aging talents of the league couldn’t even get a deal from an insurance company. CC has a 28million deal with Nike and she just got drafted into the pros. JEALOUSY is the name of the game .. that the Price of stardom. Hang in there CC, your fans love you.

Wow didn't know about her foundation! She is a true roll model! And a top player of basketball in the world! Thank you !

CC broke the scoring record with 13 less games...she didnt take the covid year

[harrisonned]

you dam_ RIght she's on a whole different level

[rickbrewer]

Swoopes was either lying or didn't bother to check her facts. Clark only played 4 years ( Swoopes claimed more years) broke Plum's record in fewer games - not more: 126 to 139. She was 22, not 25 as Swoopes also claimed.

[juliewerner]

CC is the tiger woods of basketball! I never watched holf until tiger came on the scene...and now the same for the wnba...shes phenomenal!

[lynneburridge]

Caitlyn keep on shining. You have shown the world you dont have to have a "huge chip" on your shouder or an "aggressive hostile" look on your face to be a "star". Your actions n quiet demeanour speaks volumes about your true character n personality. It's a shame you never made the Olympic team

[daxie]

Caitlin Clark loves and care for her young basketball fans because Caitlin herself is a basketball fan ... just like them young kids❤.

[JamesScar-eoch]

CC played 4 years in college cause covid cut it short then she hit the draft. 13 less games than Pete Marovich.

[GerardiDemelio]

Caitlin Clark isn't called a generational player for nothing. Caitlin Clark has so much more to her talent, skill, and foresight ability to play basketball than even Aja Wilson, let alone Angel Reese.

Caitlin Clark plays basketball on a 3 dimensional level, sees what's happening on the court, calculates what needs to be done, which 90% of the plays she's driving involves other teammates, all done in her mind then translated on the play in a fraction of a second, then executes it, which most of the time is tremendously successful.

And just to address the CC turnover rates her critics like to always mention, this is because when you drive the pace, make the plays involving passing the ball, aka assists, there's always a higher rate of turnovers, which is reflected in other high rated passers down the stat board. The receiver of the passed ball who does not catch the ball are not credited with a turnover, only the passer is.

Caitlin Clark has literally revolutionized WNBA Women's Basketball to a new level, rewriting the records books with every game she plays, is without a doubt the WNBA League's ROTY and MVP, the greatest woman's basketball player of all time - aka GOAT .. which is why the WNBA old guard elites hates Caitlin Clark because it means their basketball talent and skill is not what they thought it was.

This is why the massive appeal draw is Caitlin Clark, not the WNBA, is why the WNBA has been a dismal financial and fan appeal failure since it's conception

[ohwilly]

Haters are everywhere. She's a humble super star

[trouts]

Taurasi's comments about Clark likely having some difficulty adjusting to WNBA pro play were very much realistic and expected. Her comments had nothing to do with hate, envy or jealousy. Taurasi and other great rookies went through that transition in a very hard earned way. Taurasi knows Clark is phenomenal but could not imagine Clark adjusting as she has with keeping her stats high and having much less difficulty as Taurasi and the other now great players went through. Taurasi, other greats in the WNBA, many of the great players in the NBA and the basketball aware public have been dazzled by Clark. We have not seen anything like Clark in the WNBA and not that many in the NBA. Taurasi, like most others just underestimated Clark a bit for good reason, Clark is something new.

This season the league made huge leaps and bounds. Why this season? We may never know. CC roty
