ESPN NBA analyst Tim Legler joins the Dan Patrick Show and explains why Caitlin Clark has, in terms of entertainment value to watch basketball players (men or women), has cracked his top 5 all-time as well as why he thinks she will be successful in the WNBA

Recently, she was asked about what she looks forward to most in the WNBA and she said focusing more on passing and helping her teammates score. So she absolutely knows how she needs to adapt and thrive in that league, and she’s excited to do it.

Great outside shot, great passing and can drive to the basket.

[Astrby]

Ratings agree. Good entertainment value!

I haven't watched any basketball in years, but Caitlin Clark is very entertaining to watch ! because of her b-ball IQ and ability to hit those 3`s . She is a female Larry Bird !

As a lifelong Iowa fan, I’m biased, but I’ll tell you this about Caitlin. The first time I saw her in person, what shocked me was that she literally pointed out opposing players to her teammates just *before* they came open. Her court vision is ridiculous, and you can kind of see that on TV, but you don’t really see it until you get somewhere close to court level to see how she knows what’s going to happen three seconds before it happens. That’s her magic and why she averaged nine assists per game her senior year.

Jason kidd with a jumper. I like that one.

[tonyleukering]

Clark-to-Boston for the bucket is going to be hard to stop.

[tommayrant]

Clark plays like her life depends on it. Phenomenal passer!

[jamesgoforth]

Caitlin Clark OWNS the court when she's playing.

[snaggs]

I think when she gets comfortable, it's game over. When she gets used to the speed and strength of the WNBA players, she'll turn into the 🐐. They just gotta let her be her.

[natureredux]

She can't possible CRACK the top 5 without yet playing 1 SECOND in the WNBA. That is as insane as some folks suggesting the Lakers intentional Lose Tonight. These Sport Media Types Influencers know absolutely nothing.

[burdphil]

Clark and Boston are about to become Stockton and Malone…

[sulleys]

She is fun to watch! I love how she passes!

[theresanordstrom]

Agree —- I could watch her every night then watch YouTube videos about her.

[junehanzawa]

Clearly this guy never saw Dr. J play. Or even his highlights. There has never been a more exiting player to watch.

[orlandotocano]

Who is the post player for the Fever??? Hahaha bet DP dont know 🤣🤣🤣

[tonypassaretti]

I guess he never saw Wilt or Maravich.Too bad for you Tim.

[JET]

Whatcha gonna do when CatlinMania runs wild on you

[michaeldwight]

Caitlin Clark is must see. Entertainment? All the hard work she put is was not designed to entertain anybody. Get real
