Controversial podcast host Jason Whitlock has accused black WNBA players of being racist towards Caitlin Clark and slammed networks like ESPN for not talking about it.
The No. 1 overall pick and rookie sensation has been subject to rough treatment on numerous occasions during her first season as a pro, with some accusing her opponents of being jealous of her remarkable impact on women's basketball.
The latest incident arrived on Sunday when Seattle Storm's Skylar Diggins-Smith took a cheap shot at Clark after she inspired the Indiana Fever to a 92-75 win at Gainbridge Fieldhouse.
Diggins-Smith, an Olympic gold medalist and six-time WNBA all-star, was caught needlessly bumping into Clark at the end of Sunday's game.

No doubt, physically and personally.
I watched a little of that game because of her. I think the fuss was about Seattle pulling all it’s starters because the game was out of reach and Indiana left the starters in.

I agree with him, she is being hammered on a lot and not getting the calls. She should have been on the Olympic team instead of Griner and mega nose Taurasi
That’s awesome. Hope she bolts.
they are upset cuz she wont date them
where is the coach?
you put in a punisher to protect your best player
Zactly.
Great players are leaders who see how to thrive. It’s fascinating that rather than just scoring points she making her whole team better.
I have never watched a WNBA game. The league has been going on for what? 20 years?
Caitlin Clark has changed that. She is an absolute joy to watch. She's got everything. 3-point shooting -"from Clarksville" lol!, she drives, and especially, her distribution/assists. Marvelous to watch.
Watch what happens here if/when Caitlin Clark publicly announces support for Harris.
Look up ICD 10 Code I51.81...
...that's what I'd die from.
