WNBA superstar A’ja Wilson said the elephant in the room when it comes to the enormous popularity of Caitlin Clark is the fact that she is a White woman.
Clark is by far the most heralded basketball player since Larry Bird entered the NBA in 1979 alongside Earvin “Magic” Johnson. But when you juxtapose Clark’s resumé with Wilson’s, the contrast is startling and begs the question as to why Clark already has a signature Nike shoe deal and Wilson did not until this past week.

Scott Adam’s IS right!
Fine go ahead that will help kill the WNBA and then what, no employment.
In fact the WNBA just gave into a demand that they now fly charter instead of commercial. They don’t have the money to provide this and it may bankrupt them.
These are our elites, over-represented in culture and politics.
I don't know what kind of hole you just crawled out of, but I'M the "UNDERCLASS."
Stop your damn white guilt whining.
yeah? so what... jealous???

A’ja w’ants h’er o’wn N’ike s’hoe.
Of course...her breaking records, etc. had nothing to do with it...no one would have paid attention to her stunning performances had she not been white... < / s >
These people are insufferable.
I’m not interested in watching lesbians play basketball.
Apparently most women aren’t either, as they don’t pack the venues. More people are at certain high school boys games.
Right...and she thinks Wilson got more attention than her because of her race? It's ridiculous. Their performances do not compare. Reverse the performance and the races, Wilson would have gotten more attention.
So the ivory soap girl appeals to more people than the tatted up thugs and skanks? Who’d a thunk it?
I would try to watch the game, but my cable system does not carry ESPN Ocho.
