Stephen A. Smith admitted to what only OutKick has written for the past four months: women in the WNBA are jealous of Caitlin Clark and race is a contributing factor.
"There are girls – young ladies – in the WNBA who are jealous of Caitlin Clark. She is a White girl that has come into the league," Smith said while discussing Chennedy Carter shoving Clark to the floor on Saturday.
"She has bursted onto the scene. She hasn’t proven herself yet. It’s not even about them thinking they’re better than her because they probably know it at this particular juncture because they’ve been playing on a level she just arrived to.
"One would think that folks would be smart enough to recognize and appreciate that about Caitlin Clark – piggyback off of that to their benefit and praise her and support her for it while competing on the court against her."
He's right – about all of that.
We hope he doesn't backtrack. Smith is known to make a good point, upset Black Twitter, and then cave.
Last month, he apologized to the "black community" for citing polls that suggest black Americans relate to Donald Trump's feeling that the system is persecuting him.

Clark’s teammates would have decked the one who knocked her down and the one who got off the bench to cheer it.,
Crab bucket mentality at work.
In the 90s, I worked for a company that very much had the same dynamics as THE OFFICE TV series. The upstairs white collars played flag football against the warehouse, mostly comprised of Denver Hispanics. They played extremely dirty and one coward tried to high block me - basically his elbow to my jawline. Knocked me flat, while his gang buddies smirked at him for the cheap shot. Being a former wrestler and weight lifter, and seeing I was pissed off, he became my new hobby, but he avoided me like a coward. Yeah, there’s no doubt there’s that loser class jealousy mentality.
Looks like it will happen.
They are jealous of Caitlin’s ability on the court.
That jealousy is amplified because she is white and hetero, probably making her unique in the entire league. It undermines their “we’re better because were blacker and gayer” beliefs. That’s where the rage comes in.
Its the same belief that caused Hitler to fume at Jesse Owens. They share the same values.
Juan a conservative????? If so the dude plays the stupid liberal perfectly.
Then why don’t they just start identifying as white?
There is a lesbian cabal that runs the WNBA, somebody needs to say the quiet part out loud. They hate that a white, heterosexual woman is the one bringing eyes to their league.
The NBA had to subside the WNBA $15 million yearly.
