Caitlin Clark Shakes Off Cheap Shot, Breaks WNBA Record

Caitlin Clark emerged as the standout player in the WNBA 2024 season, particularly excelling for the struggling Indiana Fever with an impressive performance of 30 points, 8 rebounds, 6 assists, and 4 steals in a recent victory.

Despite controversies and intense matchups, Clark’s exceptional skills and contributions to her team have garnered attention and praise.

The focus has remained on Clark’s prowess on the court, overshadowing other players like Angel Reese, as she continues to showcase her talent and impact in the league.

“Coming into a league that is super competitive with amazing talent here, I wasn’t coming in here expecting it to be easy because of the name I have,” Reese said.

“I think so many people are watching women’s basketball right now,” Reese said.

“It all started from the National Championship Game [in 2023], and I’ve been dealing with this for two years now. And understanding, yeah, negative things have probably been said about me, but honestly, I’ll take that because look where women’s basketball is.”

“People are talking about women’s basketball, but you never would think that people would be talking about women’s basketball. People are pulling up to games, we got celebrities coming to games, sold out arenas, just because of one single game,” Reese said.

“And just looking at that, I’ll take that role. I’ll take the ‘bad guy’ role, and I’ll continue to take that on and be that for my teammates. And I know I’ll go down in history,” she added. “I’ll look back in 20 years and be like, ‘the reason why we watching women’s basketball is not just because of one person, it’s because of me, too,’ and I want y’all to realize that.”
