Caitlin Clark is the only reason I’ve even heard of Chennedy Carter to answer her comment of “what does she even bring to the table”. Those three pointers are more impressive than those cheap flagrant fouls

[michaelschrock]

Carter asked, "What does she (Clark) bring to the table? The answer, "Look at the seats, there's people sitting in them".

Ball is not even in play. Should be instant disqualification

[benjaminb.algarin]

She's doing what Carter CAN'T do. She's making people watch WNBA

[JVB]

Her Fever teammates are weak/pathetic for not protecting her, especially Boston. What is the point of that big body if you don’t use it.

[JustinHamby-gopk]

My problem was where was her team having her back?

Chennedy Carter: "What does she bring to the table?" Well, let's look at the stats...CC has more ppg, reb per game, assists per game, steals per game, blocks per game, and a higher FT% while committing less personal fouls per game that you do Ms. Carter. So, the answer to your question is more than you.

It’s not basketball to hip check someone when the ball isn’t even in play, unless those are the new rules. That’s dirty basketball, coward to not answer during the press conference and then have twitter fingers after

Had no idea who she was till that foal. She got her fifteen minutes of fame, thanks to Clark.

[jamesmetz]

That wasn't a foul, it was assault.

[kevinpurscell]

Players do those things when they are not as talented as these rookies.

[StephanoJayP]

Never mind that the only reason anyone is watching WNBA is because of Clark.

[DOI_ARTS]

What does she bring on the table?

Me: Your salary?

[robertigarta]

"WHAT DOES SHE BRING TO THE TABLE?"
She can fill an arena. How about you, can you fill a bleacher?

[aarontoalet]

Caitlyn Clark low key calling her a man: “I grew up with brothers and playing against boys. I’m used to it.” 😂

[ltccherno]

In the end, nobody had ever heard of Carter until this moment so there’s that.

[dago_enfuego]

Angel Reese was clapping and yelling approval at Chennedy immediately after the foul was called, then hugged her as she came off the floor. Pretty sure she didn't have a good explanation for that display. Reese likes to control her narrative via social media

[JohnPaul-tsdq]

Carter is a dirty player. This was a flagrant foul. There is no place in the game for this type of play.

[mikeglaspey]

Nothing like getting more tv exposure, filling arenas, getting chartered flights and F ing all up with stupidity in record time.

[dannysmith]

Reese skipped the news conference because she didn't have an answer to this question...why did you jump up and cheer, when Carter did that flagrant foul on Caitlin Clark???
