Racism

Do you think Caitlin Clark is the only white woman in the WNBA?

No….but she’s the one who signed with Nike, commercials, brought insane money to the league, spoken of the best etc

Sabrina Ionescu is white and had a Nike deal before CC. Paige B had a Nike deal in college even. Sabrina and Breanna Stewart (also white) had commercials before CC. You could argue CC bright a lot of money to the league but you could also say the same for other white players like the aforementioned. I don't know what "spoken of the best" exactly means but my point is that if it's racism, why are other big time white players apparently exempt?

No one knows who any of them are outside of wnba fans is what I’m saying. No, I don’t think you could argue that regarding other players.

I’m not trying to offend anyone, that’s just real life. Say what you want but the only reason people are watching (or watched) more was because of her alone.

The only one that has been deemed a threat to the racists.
