Mercury star Diana Taurasi heaped praised on Caitlin Clark , the Fever’s No. 1 pick in this year’s WNBA draft, afterTaurasi, 42, explained that it’s evident 22-year-old Clark puts in a ton of work behind the scenes when asked about Clark’s impact on women’s basketball.
“Even throughout her short WNBA career, it’s been a lot of pressure, a lot of things thrown at her, and she keeps showing up and keeps getting better every single game. “I think what she’s doing for that team right now is pretty impressive. When I think of her, I think of what she’s done for that team.”Taurasi’s comments came after the five-time Olympic gold medalist faced pushback when she said that “reality was coming” for Clark — who was still playing for Iowa in the NCAA Tournament in April — when she entered the league.
