As a black woman, I love Caitlyn’s humility and I will support her because of it and also for the fact that she’s not combative.

[Vlabar]

I live in Indiana and didn't know we had a WNBA team until Clark was signed.

[medardmaynard]

Caitlin Clark is killing her critics with kindness. She is such a class act…

[CbusRon]

As a black person im tired of other black people constantly bringing up race. This is basketball and CC is entertaining to watch it’s very simple.

[cole-trickle]

First female professional basketball player who got me to tune into a game, read an article or genuinely care about the WNBA - Her name is Caitlyn Clark . It is what it is

[markmielke]

Jealousy and racism can lead to some very serious problems.

[dcai]

Against Serena Williams, Angel Reese is absolutely classless. Serena Williams has a much bigger heart to embrace CC while Reese keeps whining about in a divisive way or indulging in her narcissism.

[markbryan]

Not long ago things were getting better. When Morgan Freeman was asked "How do you stop Racism"... "Stop Talking About It!"

[AdventureHorseRidinginNYS]

I cannot believe how her teammates behave so atrociously to Caitlin and yet they wanted more people to watch women's basketball and now they hate her for it

[derekgroom]

If Caitlin Clarke was black this would be a completely different story. 💯

[davesworldview]

As a white man I had no problem with my sons emulating Michael Jordan. It would be nice if Steven A and his fellow race baiters felt the same about Caitlyn Clark!

[justasoul]

“What an attractive personality, not trying to play the victim.” Brilliantly put pbd

[NickCager]

The 105% is the Clark hating ESPN figure... it's between 200 and 300%.

[UKnowtheThing]

Your headline is exactly why they are so mad at her. They resent her and are jealous.

[aaronandelise]

Caitlin vs Reese / the difference between having character and being one.

[sulleys]

I'm from Iowa and have been watching Caitlin play since her 2nd year at Iowa. She is special! Her style of play at Iowa was magic to watch. She engages the crowd. Her step back threes with a swoosh (she never rims it) are electrifying and crowd pleasers. She is an unselfish team player as you can tell by her assist numbers. Her passing game alone is worth the watch. She can be aggressive, and she is a trash talker like non-other. (She is not a pretty princess). But she always has time for the kids! Being with the kids is her happy place and I am convinced that she plays only for them!

[dv]

They're jealous because shes better and because shes white and getting the attention they wish they got. Keep ballin on them Caitlin.

[ldIezz]

And she's not even invited to the summer Olympics

[roborob]

There is a huge difference between playing rough in a general sense or playing rough because it's a competitive atmosphere and playing rough with a single individual because you do not like them or are jealous of them. It's obvious Caitlin is being specifically targeted and it is not a coincidence.

NCAA Tournament records Most career points — Division I, men's or women's (491) Most career assists — Division I, men's or women's (152) ...
Big Ten records Most career points in Big Ten history ...
Iowa records Most career points in Iowa history...JUST TO NAME A FEW...the list goes on and on.
