Caitlin Clark is being bullied and Clay Travis believes it exemplifies the adversity of being a white heterosexual woman in the WNBA.
Clark has been on the receiving end of some hard fouls and dirty plays since joining the WNBA. A rookie basketball player coming into the league with immense popularity only to be tested and put through the wringer by their opponents is not a new concept. But when that rookie basketball player is white and most of their opponents are Black, it invites discussions about race.
Monday night, Sean Hannity weighed in on the discourse around Clark, inviting OutKick’s Clay Travis and Tomi Lahren onto his Fox News show to offer their perspective.
“It’s not just race though, it’s also sexuality,” Travis claimed. “Caitlin Clark is a white heterosexual woman in a Black lesbian league and they resent and are jealous of all of the attention and the shoe deal that she got. And instead of recognizing the truth, which is great athletes who people care about coming into your league really do get everybody more money…”

This particular foul was a blatant cheap shot - the ball had not even been inbounded. The other player just walked up behind Clark and gave her a hard hip check and called her a b*tch.
This is the type of head coach Caitlin Clark needs...
Bill Laimbeer (and assistant coach Rick Mahorn)

Coaching career: Detroit Shock (2002–2009)
In the middle of the 2002 WNBA season, Laimbeer took over the head coaching position for the Detroit Shock. A year later, he led the franchise to its first WNBA championship and was named Coach of the Year that year. It marked the first time in WNBA history that a team other than Los Angeles or Houston won the title. On September 9, 2006, Laimbeer led the Shock to their second WNBA championship against the Sacramento Monarchs in five games. Two years later, on October 5, 2008, Laimbeer led the team to its third league championship in six years by defeating San Antonio.
Weird to see Bill Laimbeer coaching WNBA.
“What does that tell you?”
Female basketball players are likely to be alcoholics? 😉
Should be the LNBA (Little Nasty B****** of Africa).
Could it be...
Punctuation?
The WNBA needs to be invaded by a bunch of ‘trans’ women.
Didn’t Laimbeer take to wearing a facemask? Or was that someone else?
The WNBA - Where you can really lick your opponent.
She has real class and composure....

Good job! (kind of creepy looking though!)
That era was actually fun to watch. But they had to clean it up.
Reverse the skin color and cities would burn
I think they’re jealous because she is a rookie who will be outearning everyone in the league and will be getting all the publicity, The fact that she is white and straight adds fuel to the fire
Elbows? Yes.
Blindside knockdown? Not that I recall.
It was a cheap, shitty, maneuver that was uncalled for.
Th bitch that fouled Caitlin should have had her tits cut off!
Bill lLambeer, lowering his weak cred by coaching in a Lesbian League! YUK!
Within 2 years, I expect the first WNBA trans, and the lesbians will be furious over the decision to allow it.
What I’ll predict shortly after that...a ABA-like league will start up in the midwest...just 8 teams, and it’ll be a non LGTBQ situation and have zero connection to the NBA.
Women have their own Basketball league ?
