Depending on where you sit, less than a dozen games into her professional career, Indiana Fever star Caitlin Clark is either the savior of a previously fledgling WNBA or the product of media overkill, overshadowing a collection of young talent and seasoned veterans. The debate reached fever pitch after Saturday night, when a rough foul committed by Chicago Sky’s Chennedy Carter against Clark elicited emotions ranging from rage to shoulder shrugs.
” Chicago head coach Theresa Weatherspoon was also quiet until Monday, when she finally condemned the shove. For her part, Carter took to social media to question the talents of Clark, intimating that she was nothing more than a shooter. Again, the numbers tell a different story: the rookie guard averages more than 15 points per game, 5 rebounds and 6 assists . On Monday, she was also named WNBA Rookie of the Month. As for Clark, she’s largely taken the high road.
