- What NBA Legends Think of Caitlin Clark
This young phenom has been turning heads and drawing comparisons to some of the greatest athletes of all time.
Tiger Woods, Serena Williams, Magic Johnson, and Larry Bird. They all revolutionized their sports, and now the spotlight is on Caitlin Clark to do the same for women’s basketball.
But what do NBA and WNBA legends think of her?
At first, the narrative was overwhelmingly positive. She certainly has been celebrated as a transformative figure in basketball. Drawing attention not just for her skills but also for her potential to elevate the entire league. But as time has gone by, the views have become more varied.

🏀Caitlin Clark Makes History Massive Multi Year Wilson Deal only her and Michael Jordan have ever been a brand ambassador for Wilson. " WELL DESERVED "..
Thats actually solid of Wilson.
Meeeeeeeh
Meeeeeeh
This is so stupid to say that she needs a championship 🏆 to be great! John Stockton, Karl Malone, Charles Barkley, Alex English! All of these hall of farmers never won a championship 🏆 does that mean they should be stripped of their hall of fame status? These lesbians are just jealous
These lesbians are just jealous
Clark is the best thing that ever happened to the WNBA
No one should go to any WNBA games, unless it's Clark, for not placing her on the Olympic Team. Idiots.
That’s a reach.And an opinion.
Facts
Facts
she is mentally a female but she is physically a male who controls her body with medicines. if she gets off those medicines, she would probably revert back to her male body...grow face hair for example. i think it is unfair to women basketball player, especially when her body need to be controlled by drugs (there is something off when you have to use drugs to compete). she enjoys advantages that women do not, physiology of a male body. why than are the league excepting her? she brings in the bucks...regarding she being the best, it doesn't mean it is right. you know there be others and some non-trans women will be replaced
Sorry ladies but it's all about Caitlin and you just can't handle it.
I agree with you!
@@juancampoalegre8362 Isnt Caitlin supposed to be a 'lady'?
@OhSnap-kb9vr best example of a lady that entire league has to offer
@@OhSnap-kb9vr ..she is more lady than others in the WNBA
That’s how it is… they are mad lol
Clark brings class with her anywhere she goes.
Shes to humble and not ratchet enough for some people lmaooo
Ok
yeah...gym class
@@fjhenley1 Ok ?
Larry Bird didn't win a college championship, and he's still considered a great at all levels. Larry's problem was he ran into some stacked teams, just like Caitlin.
Wrong!!!! all you so- called "experts "fail to understand that the worst team gets to draft the no.1 college player. So, no matter what your skills are, they are not going to be displayed by being on a bad team. Take a look at Clark's team, what do they have? Even last year Rookie of the year, What's her name? Boston?, she has no get up and go, lumbers down the court, doesn't cover the rim, blows passes, can't move the ball, etc.....the rest of the team is weak. Sooooooooooooo.................................
It takes a team there is five on the floor never been one person that won a championship
@@Knownothing10187calm down weirdo
And Larry Bird also did not play on Olympic team. But he a great basketball player. Did Mj play on Olympics team? It will chamber play in the Olympics? They all was great player in there time. But to think you have the right to be on Olympics team, don't make it so. The woke people has Destroy the integrity of sports. Thinking everyone Deserve a trophy for participating in any sports..
@@shawnwilliams4485ever heard of the Dream Team? Bird was on that.
Love you, Caitlin. Keep your head up and keep making a positive impact in the WNBA.
Tuarsi was rooting for her to fail. How sad.
Even benchwarmers have championship rings in basketball!!!
Excellent point
I think Caitlin is a great player, fierce competitor and really nice person. People should just leave her alone, let her live her life and play basketball. Period.
Those are the exact reasons they don’t like her. Sad!
FYI: Dan Marino NEVER WON A SUPERBOWL.. and yet he's considered as one of the all time best quarterbacks
Jim Kelly also!
@@joeysweet9045, Yeah, Jim Kelly must be in the mix.
FOUR Superbowl appearances in four years is an unreal accomplishment in itself.
Dan Fouts as well.
@@brucestanley9330 , Boy could Dan Fouts throw the football.
San Diego would easily score 45 points.
(Then lose by three......)
I still remember Dan Marino shredding Chicago Bears defense in a Monday night game in 1985. Same Bears team considered to be greatest defense of all time. And I'm a Bears fan. Dan Marino was one of the greats, championship or not.
Glad Caitlin got her sponsor money upfront. The WNBA is where fame goes to die.
But talent thrives in the WNBA. She has it.
@@HungryH1951 yep, good girl’s basketball ball where air balls and turn overs are just part of the game.
She brings credibility and respect to the WNBA. A real role model for young girls. That’s BIG in 2024.
Massive really, Its so much harder to be good now.
Shes a real one.
Shes not the best college player ever lol. She's one of the greatest lol. 😂😂😂 She's still good though
@@sgoff4168who cares if she isn't the best collage player.
She's no longer in collage.
Why is everyone back tracking.
@@mitchellandrew3318 Because of your lack of knowledge. Pointing out that she's not the best. She is not the best pro either right now. No one is putting her down. We are simply saying the truth. Her average is also misleading. This why they have the plus minus statistics.
She also brings sincerity and "CLASS" , something that many basketball players obviously can't even buy or spell.
Caitlin already scored 30 points in the WNBA game and many more games she will smoke the score board !!
You do not need a championship. Her stats will speak for her greatness and she only just begun
Who was the number 1 draft Caitlin Clark ! Who sells the most Jerseys Caitlin Clark !! Who made the most 3 points shots Caitlin Clark !! Who won the most basketball awards Caitlin Clark !!!❤❤❤
Oh, also "rookie of the month" of may Not bad for someone who's ranked the sixth rookie, according to ESPN of course
Charles Barkley never won an nba ring!!!! What does that make him ms Stewart!
He never played defense.
Dude, Jordan won six chps. He spoke positive about CC. Bron won 4 rings, 4 MVPS, and is the top scorer in NBA history. He's no Jordan, but HE spoke positively about CC. Shaquille won 4 chps, 11k rebounds and over 28000 points. HE spoke positively about CC. Curry, the greatest PG in his era, has scored about 25k points and has 4 chps, HE spoke positively about CC, Chuck scored over 22k points and never won a ring because of Jordan. But HE'S an NBA legend and has the right to speak. I don't care for him, but he was a great player that spoke positively about CC. So your 1st amendment to speak your mind is one thing. But the PROS are saying som altogether positively about CC. Your point is mote.
@@ryanjones875you crazy, Chuck always played defense
A Hall of Famer 🙌🔥
Charles just wasn't a very agile defender.
Before CC a lot of people never known this players. Thats a fact. A lot of people never watch WNBA! But all is changed now because of CC
Currently Caitlyn is a wnba champion..brand of play, logo 3's, media, fans, arena and endorsements.. even0 ice cube's big 3.. that makes CC incredible and popular..Go Caitlyn!
Caitlin Clark and Cameron Brink is the only reason I now watch the wnba. And Caitlin Clark is the Michael Jordan version of the wnba.
Me too
She's more like Larry Bird...great outside shooter
RudyRodriguez you are correct. Caitlin Clark is the Michael Jordan version of the WNBA. Caitlin Clark should meet Michael Jordan and show her his moves and teach and show her how a great athlete can be greater. Caitlin Clark is the greatest collegiate female basketball player of all time. Hands down no arguing no debating. She is the best we've ever seen in a long time.
Keep your head up Caitlin you are the best WNBA player.
Keep your head up and on a swivel, as the cheap shots are coming.
No! She isn't the best in the WNBA!
@@jamespcrown128 Breanna Stewart, A'ja Wilson, Alyssa Thomas plus others are better than Caitlin Clark.
Not yet her last game Wnba 3point only
Caitlin your the greatest keep up the good work.
Coming from 'No Bullshit' Shaquille Oneal on Caitlin Clark, you can't get a higher endorsement for a player than him. IMHO, what he says is GOLD.
But he racist tho saying bad things about Luka doncic when is clearly in his eyes that Luca was a great player how do you explain that
Who doest like Shaquille
Should have showed Larry Bird instead of LeBron James
TRUE WHERE is Larry Bird ?? Mr. Indiana......Silent on Caitlin???
Keep going STRONG Caitlin!!!!
Breanna Stewart is incorrect, because to win a Championship that takes the entire team. Sometimes a great player can be on a mediocre team, and average alot of points, but still not win a Championship. Caitlin Clark will always be considered one of the all time greats in College basketball, because of what she accomplished as an individual. That is called most valuable player, and many athletes have been awarded such an honor in team sports!
Get her a supporting cast. I've seen many great passes that ended with missed lay ups and bricks.
Clark already forcing WNBA coaches, players & referees to step up their games.
That was a bench clearing event and noone got up. Is it that they cant afford the fines
Clark doesn't need a championship. Clark is a single person. A team is 5 on the floor and other on the bench.
Correct, 1 player is NOT bigger than the team or the game!
Did the girl who said Caitlin needs a championship win a championship herself
Thanks for being reasonable, the media is causing her team mates to not like her,
@@ElderGriefyes but she played at Uconn while they were winning championships every year. If any of those women played at Iowa they wouldn't have won any championships either.
Exactly 🎉
Caitlin Clark is a Super Star period !!❤❤❤
What Stewart doesn't get is you can't win a title all by yourself. It takes a team.
She gets that
Nope she doesn't get it because Caitlin is white ! Stewart needs to stop being a hypocrite!
She shoots like Bird.
Absolutely!!
Indeed,shoot 50 three pointers make 15 .highest score lowest percentage.
IT DOESN’T TAKE ONE PLAYER TO WIN A CHAMPIONSHIP .
🇺🇸🦅🗽
Right on the mark.
Maybe not, but she too Iowa to the top. She could have got to a big school, but she carried a small school to the top.
Brilliant! Can I quote you?
One player can make her teammates play better.
What? Whaddya mean? Caitlin failed to carry her team on her back by herself to the NCAA championship. Of course that's her fault. /s obligatory.
Never heard of any of these wnba women until I started hearing about Clark. They all mad a new girl is bringing the attention they couldn't!
Let her shine
Championships are won by a TEAM, not one player.
Caitlin Clark is going to do for the WNBA what Tiger Woods did for the PGA
No................all the heifers have formed a circular firing squad to bring Clark down , but and will crash and burn through their own hate.
That's bad because WNBA are worthless except for her and they want to take her down. Clark should go play in Japan and get rich. Let the haters enjoy their low ticket sales.
After watching the maturity of the WNBA, I’m Looking forward to watching women’s basketball this fall: NCAA Go Iowa Hawkeyes!!!!
A large percentage of Caitlin Clark following are families with children!
WNBA and it's players have to decide if they wish to keep them and ensure future growth. W will need a major change to basketball to be more skill focus than hard core aggressive play that they currently have. It's up to the officials to call fouls when they are made not call only hard fouls.
She has master the rotation on the basketball ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
National titles take a team. You do not have to have a national championship to be the goat. Basketball is a team sport. I never heard any of these player say I’m responsible for my team winning the Championship. I love Stewie but she didn’t when a Championship or a Olympic gold medal by herself in basketball Caitlyn focus is on helping her team, bringing in fans and promoting the WNBA
If you look at the box score of her games, it was like HER and maybe 2 other players every year that she played! She singlehandedly took that team to where they got to!
It’s not this “rookie class” it’s Clark.
Existing players aren't jealous! Instead, she will force survivors in the WNBA for her court vision, assists, shooting 3's like a guy (i.e., without "pushing" the ball), and teamwork. And winning championships is easiest for her for her all consuming team play and need to win! She brings a more fun game to watch, much higher salaries for players, more endorsement deals, more women interest in high school and college game feeder network to the pros!
Taurasi comments were spot on. Caitlin is facing bigger, faster opponents, who can play defense. She won't dominate like in college.
That's what they said about Barry Sanders.
Lets face it success breeds jealousy and CC is a successful basketball player and the other players on the other teams are jealous of her success and that makes a lot of angry opponents wanting to get physical with her and verbally abusing her.
Not only is she a great player but also very attractive which gives people plenty to be jealous of her
Caitlin Clark white, pretty and not a dike. Of course she’s going to be hated by a large segment of any WNBA players.
Championships does not equal greatness on an individual level... Championships define greatness for a team effort. Some of the all-time greatest players in sports history didn't win a championship, but they certainly dominated and broke records on individual level...
Championships = Team achievement
Breaking individual records, H.O.F. induction etc = Individual accomplishment
Huge difference here that surprisingly many don't comprehend.
I feel like she deserves all the praise, she is amazing. I also feel like the attention on her is having a trickle down effect. It’s getting eyes and views on the WNBA. I came to watch CC but now I’m noticing the other players too. It’s overall good to bring more attention to women’s games
They think she's best thing since white slice bread.
Sliced bread also Iowa .
I guess Stats mean Nothing to you 😆 I mean… it’s only sports right? What does her Actual Record matter? 😆 Is she still in Iowa or are we talking about what She is currently doing?Haters will hate 🤷♂️
What's crazy is that you're a few years late, like super fucking late! She's been in the media the entire time she was in college😂! Angel reese wasn't talked about until she transferred to LSU!
@@C_71 so it's more to this then Angel Reese and Catlin Clark. There is Lisa Leslie who never dress like these girls today and neither was she lbgt, but that didn't matter she was Black. There Cheryl Miller and Candace Parker others.
@@iramkjr76 I know no competition.
those WNBA athletes talking the importance of college championships could never have accomplished what Clark did if they went to Iowa.
Im sorry, but the game is a team sport. Anyone who says you need a championship to be a legend in the sport. doesn't know anything about the sport. MJ couldn't have won all his championships without his teammates. Lebron didn't win one until he got better teammates. Im 54 yrs old. I have never seen a second of a womans college or pro basketball ball game until C. Clark. That's what a legend does. It draws the unaware and new viewers to its sport.
thumbs down for this video!! it mentions Magic and not Jordan!! the GOAT of the NBA
Brianna Stewart’s comments are absurd..Easily said from a girl who played at UConn , a school that dominated women’s hoops for years , all the top recruits wanted to play there..she played with much, much better teammates than Clarke did….plents of all time greats on the male side of college hoops, haven won a chip in school…
Great content on CC22...SEND US MORE!!!
More to come!
Shout out to Barkley. I love how he says”y’alls ass” lol
It is a shame len bias didn't get a chance to exhibit his skills in the league.
Cheryl Miller is the type of player that reese needs to pattern her game after! The thing that people forget... maybe because they're casual watchers, but Iowa was Caitlin Clark! I know other players on the team, but she was one of two on her team! It's funny what Curry said... I'm my opinion. It's Caitlin = Curry and Reese = Rodman!
If Stewart didn't win a championship, she would have been mute on that! Tell that to LeBron, K.D., etc.!
Funny how all the opinions are coming from UCONN players. Must of been rough passing the ball to 4 other 5 stars every year. At least Lobo has some perspective on the situation at hand. Good Job Rebecca
Hey Breanna your UConn team is stacked
yeah anyone who came out of UCONN in the last 15 years was stacked, lol
Everyone just needs to be humble and bow down.. we are witnesses to greatness. Don't hate, appreciate.. 💯👑💝👊👊🔥🔥
CC has an insane range on her 3 pointers, but she also hits a very high percentage of them...she makes great passes and plays very good defense and gets many steals...an exciting all-around player...who makes her teammates better.
Played many years of both blacktop basketball and organized basketball. CC,s shot technique is textbook. Men dream of looking that good when they shoot.
Nice vid.
The fact of the matter is that she is a three point sniper. A killer from a far.
I'm not going to doubt, Shaq, Lebron, Curry Swoops.
Caitlin definitely has that Steph Curry magic she's a rookie give her a break. AjA Wilson got it all, she's bringing the magic very impressive. Play the game leave personal feelings out of it. It's the best thing for the league and every single player.
She's just awesome all the way around..🎉🎉
Rofl. No such thing as a "WNBA Legend".
Bird went through the same thing. But he wound up being One of the top 3 players of all time.
3:46 did Dan Marino or Barry Sanders NEED a Super Bowl ring to be considered one of the greats?
Caitlin need to move to Europe where she will get the recognition she deserves. If she leaves WNBA the ratings will go back to be the same they where before she got there...
Caitlin Clark you oz intelligence you have that look everything you do you thing smart that come out of your lips girl so much smarter . That to me is very impressive than all the other things that you’re doing on the court all that is good but your mom and dad brought you up right they take the most credit and how are you? Are your personality and how you present yourself as a great athlete as a person as well, those are big values that are caring right in front of your face and that’s beautiful and your boyfriend is a lucky man to have you he better not fuck it up because you’re a great person and a great lady. Great athlete all the best I’ll be watching big time because of you Kaylan Clark so happy, you’re the white ghost that is needed for this women’s NBA basketball
As to the question of championships, C C never had the supporting cast members of a UCONN or other championship teams over the years, Ask those ladies critical of C C to comment on that.
You know what, this reminds me of Messi coming to play for Inter Miami soccer team. Last year they were nothing. So far this year they are 1st place in the MLS. And why? Because the owners have gone above and beyond to protect their GOLDEN GOOS . Btw, the teams VALUE HAS GONE UP FROM MESSLEY FEW HUNDERED MILLION TO OVER 1.3 BILLION DOLLARS. In fact, the owner have hired an x- navy seal to protect Messi even when he is playing. Now that is what I call smart. And can someone please tell me where were her teammates and coach? I have a suggestion for this young lady, give them the middle finger and come to EUROPE. The will pay you more, give you the respect that you deserve and protect you as well. THIS IS CRAZY.
Never watched a wnba game, goin to have to check her out
I knew something didn't sound quite right. Pete Maravich did his total in three seasons. Freshmen couldn't play varsity back then; oh, and there were no three point shots back then, either. Now figure it all out, and determine exactly which sharpshooter was better at it. Despite not coming close to being as deadly a shot as Pete, I do admire her for being as good as she is, and wish her a long and great career. Oh yes, I got to watch Pistol Pete when he was scoring like that. Still was amazing.
It’s funny all these players saying she isn’t one of the GOATS but they get no say she could retire tomorrow and already is it’s insane
Players who have national championship rings didn't get them through their own greatness, they were just lucky enough to be on a winning team.
Caitlin Clark killed it the other night against the New York Liberty with her 3 points 😂😂😂
Hope she can get past all this negative talk about her, stay humble and we will all stay on your side🙏
To me "Fake News" translates to "You got me on that one but I won't admit it."
Sheryl Swoops is awesome. She’s not angry of her success
remember, theres pro nba players, NFL players that didnt have championships, and people still they they are great
You don't need a college championship! Fear of the future is what they are trying to sell! Go Kaitlyn.
It's very obvious that this woman is an absolute badass on the court and class act off. All the hatred from fellow players, including Angel Reese, comes from jealosy.
I love her game 😻
I wish they'd go down the list of the other rookies NOT to diss them but to give them their props equal time.
She is the reason the wnba might not be in the negative for once in 25 yrs. She is bringing in what, fans.
Lobo is right. Play the game against her, but none of the dirty crap we've already seen.
Barkley is calling out the haters in the league and now getting heat for it.
Go Caitlin go you’re the queen of basketball
Kudos to the little side bar. Ice Cube offers Clark $5m for her to play Big3!
THATS what Caitlin Clark, has done…I’m from the UK and she’s the only WNBA player I know…
Like MJ, she’s just gave EVERY WNBA player a pay rise, go girl.
Stay humble, do your talking on the court. You’ve brought 👀👀👀👀’s to the game…as a father to a daughter? I salute you ❤
Ju Ju Watkins is a 2way player that will have a huge impact in College & when the time comes when she makes the WNBA…
Larry Bird didn't win championship in college either, they both playrd in championship game,. Catlin played twice I believe. Larry first year NBA numbers were great but hers are better. Catlin has a chance to be exactly the woman Shaq said she would be....
Caitlin Clark, keep doing you. You handle yourself for the the better and there straight jelly trashing you for them to actually having time on ESPN or anywhere. Stay strong it will only get worse with you making them that money they couldn't without you.
Did she think it was going to be easy. Pride, jealousy, envy, and hate. Every new level is a new devil.
I hope she becomes resilient through all this and an even better person/player inspiring others because of it.
Hall of famers call her great, but non hall of famers call her not great. That doesn't translate to me 😂
She would get a taste of the pro defensive action when she faced Connecticut's Geno's Defensive style game play, and every time, her scoring was significantly reduced.
WNBA has never been this much in the news until now.
If I was in the WNBA, I wouldn't want chartered flights. They are already losing money. Wouldn't it be better to have higher compensation than chartered flights?
NOTHING DRAWS ATTENTION like "controversy." Darrel Waltrip complained that NASCAR fined him and Cale Yarboro $5000 each for their fight, then played the replay of the fight dozens of times in promotions.
Watched a really cool documentary of Jackie Stiles .. is Caitlin Clark the next Jackie Stiles ?
1st time i ever look for a wnba tickets. Caitlin Clark has most of the states xD her Home Court
