I find it funny how they say the WNBA is a brighter stage than college when in reality it’s the exact opposite.
Those are Pros talking about basketball they know she will be popular they talking about her game
Not one wnba game ever had 24 million viewers like the national championship had.
@@otisyoungblood exactly and college is not a brighter stage than WNBA they avg. 16-18,000 fans in the arena's each year. it's only recently has Women's college ball been getting attention
@@mcaste8495how much u think its going to ne wen these same stars play in the wnba ? Are u even thinking of wat u r sayin ?
Hopefully it will change.. A 1 and done tournament would do it
That Chicago vs Indiana game is gonna be 🔥
WNBA needs a better TV Deal
But they won't get sponsors.
If they get the views. The cash will follow.
I think it's on its way
start watching then
Wnba needs to play in the fall and winter like ever other popular league not in the summer when everyone's on vacation
This WNBA draft is equivalent to what the 96 NBA draft was. A lot of star power and big names were in that draft.
Not even close
Did you not see the empty streets when the WNBA team was celebrating their championships? No one cares about the WNBA and non of them are stars. They are living off the NBA, without their contributions the WNBA wouldn't even exist. Empty stadiums and low viewership are the reality of the WNBA.
@@nadecha5326dumbass obviously. they are just talking about the women’s equivalent.
More comparable to 84. Clark can be the MJ that takes the league to the next level.
Eh I say more 03 draft a lot of big names definitely not same skill level as nba players obviously
Clark and Reese have the personality and charisma to impact the WNBA the same way Larry Bird and Magic did. Yes they are all incredible on the court, but Clark and Reese walk into the league with a ready made fanbase and marketability. The thing the WNBA has failed miserably at is marketing the personalities of the players. Clark and Reese is their opportunity to show they can market this league.
Better marketing = larger casual fanbase = more ticket sales/viewership = more ad revenue which leads to bigger contracts for the women.
I do think Reese has to develop her game. She won’t be grabbing put backs at the same clip as she did in college or the way Cardoso will. But if she puts in the effort and develops her footwork and shot, she already has fans and everyone else’s attention. Good luck to her.
Yeah but what allowed them to elevate the league is that they were the two best players who had a decade long rivalry. Caitlin may develop into a dominant player, but I would be shocked if Reese did.
@@cobra7282 Theydidn't have a decade long rivalry. It was a college rivalry. Listen, this isn't about the skills on court. Magic and Bird beyond their on court achievements changed the way the league marketed their players. They were both had so much charisma and personality that non-fans became casual fans, and casual fans become die hard fans. What Reese and Clark do on court is out of anyones control, but they both have the chance to be the faces of the league, be the crossover stars that the WNBA desperately needs.
@@superkid12345 Arguably they have already been battling for a decade. They played each other in AAU ball. They've seen each other on multiple occasions.
They are both good!!! They made it this far by God’s grace and he’s going to elevate their game to where it’s needed for them in the WNBA league!!! Good luck to all the players getting drafted tonight!! Play Ball Ladies!!🏀🏀🏀
THE FUTURE OF THE WNBA IS BRIGHT 🌞
😂
@@nadecha5326😂
They already are 😂😂😂 this is all we talk about ..whether haters hating on Clark or haters hating on Reese or showing love
We'll see just how much appreciation & hate they both receive when they're playing for their WNBA teams. Regardless of the teams results & their individual performances. 🤔🏀👩
@@tudormiller887 facts , ppl keep saying they know it will be a hit but CC or Reese ain’t dunking 😂 so if they not playing each other I doubt most watch .. I never watch Iowa or lsu unless they were playing a good contender
They making excuses for the old lady in the league already
@@Debate_dagame_not_dadebaterCaitlyn is the most entertaining women hopper because they don’t dunk
@@billeh60 for wt ppl! stop
That 1st game will be must watch TV
Shes gonna shut Taurus mouth
these ladies kinda sound like they are lowering the bar for Caitlin Clark. It seems to me like they don't want to add any pressure to her but so many female rookies have averaged way more numbers than what they wouldn't be surprised of averaging,12-17 pts.
It’s funny how WNBA players are acting like their league had this much attention before 😂 CC is bigger than any WNBA player right now
Lies, Angel, LSU and SC. We following Champions.
@@patriceturner5061yes sir
Yea especially these two chicks.
@@patriceturner5061Respectfully, nobody has ever cared about what player has the most rings in college basketball, let alone women’s
Karen Taurasi and the Chopped liver brigade are fuming like this is the WNBA's inaugural season and they have been playing for decades with no butts in seats.
Yep people hate on angel but she can ball and a great rebounder
Yeah but she was a center for college wnba she is going to have to play pf theirs bigger girls than her in the wnba
@@sab0024yeah isn’t that chick that brought weed into Russia like 6ft9 or sum
@@dbzfan4evermj233 She is. Every team has at least 3-4 players that are bigger than Reese. She has no outside game to speak of so she won't be more than average until she develops one.
Angel is a great rebounder because she's a less than average shooter. Half her rebounds are of her own missed shots, including missed bunnies under the hoop. Poor free throw shooter too. Her shooting has to improve a lot since she will live in mid-range territory in the league.
@@fry5familyexactly, nobody bring that up. Shes a role player and people act like shes shaq coming in to carry her team and dominate the others
There is Caitlan Clark, and then there is everyone else.
There is are championship rings then there is Caitlin Clark.
@@6time686the ones with championship rings not bringing what Caitlin is bringing.
@@CrookedJoeBiden Right. Clark is the only player being drafted. She still gotta hold that L.
@@6time686Nobody has ever cared about what single player in college basketball has rings, much less women’s college basketball. Caitlin lost to a bigger team, better coached, undefeated team. DUH!!!!
@@locklife4336 Reading comprehension is not your strong point. The last word of your comment describes you perfectly.
“This game was, is, and always will be about buckets” -Bill Russell
People really didn’t start talking much about women’s college basketball until last year when Reese did the ring on her finger gesture to Clark. The WNBA will need some level of controversies amongst the players to really make people care to watch.
Thank You!!
Exactly
Not true. Last year's Final Four drew big ratings because of Clark. The taunt happened in the last seconds. Clark attracts big ratings and attendance because of her skills, mainly her shooting. Iowa-UConn and Iowa-South Carolina had bigger ratings than Iowa-LSU this year. Some people might want controversy but most want to see the quality of basketball advanced. Brittney Griner was international news for months. Didn't make people watch the WNBA.
@@karlsfakelaugh Too bad that's not true.
@@karlsfakelaughFACTS
Of course SAS find a flaw on Angel Reese, but are you going to tell me since you didn't mentioned it Caitlin Clark has no flaw. SAS for you
Like he skips over the fact that Clark took 28 shoots to get to 30 or the fact she was held to 12 points over last quarters and got her pockets picked 4times. But he wants to find a "flaw" in Reese game AFTER she tweak her ankle
Yeah, y'all caught that too. SAS lost cool points for that.
@@baller0724
Clark’s game has less flaws than Reese.
LSU has lost 15 straight games to SC.
And Reese got killed each time.
Clark at least beat SC last year.
And saved LSU so they can win the chip. Cause LSU always gets beat by SC.
@lovehate8286 I like how you TRY to attribute 15 Ls from SC to Reese when LSU lost 15x NOT Reese but nice try.
IOWA (since y'all forget the TEAM won) won last year because of SC lack of shooting. That's it, and we seen what happened this year when they had Thompson. Plus Reese "flaws" got her a Natty where is Clark's ring??
@@lovehate8286 I think they are about the same in terms of flaws. Angel it's lack of outside skills on offense. For Clark it's lack of defense and a fairly limited skill set on offense. Caitlin happens to be elite at a couple of things on offense to be fair. She will need to develop an in between game and learn to limit the turnovers.
I’m glad to see Shannon completely comfortable on First Take now, Shannon mimicking Caitlin putting that 3 ball on Diana was great!
The white panel basketball in the WNBA is more difficult to visually follow than the traditional orange ball. Give it the eye test. Watch a WNBA game highlight or two on youtube and then watch an Iowa women's game highlight and you'll see clearly the orange ball is easier to follow. It is one of the easiest changes the WNBA could make to improve their broadcast product.
So true! I thought I was the only one who noticed.
Thank you, I thought I was the only one lol. That ball is hard on the eyes they should go with just a straight orange ball
I started watching Clark, and ended up a fan of many teams and players. Even went to a play-off game in my town, first ever college basketball game, men’s or women’s, I’ve attended. I look forward to seeing WNBA games while also cheering on the college players I’ve grown to love.
If everything breaks right, this draft can possibly change the W forever. After the star power that is CC and Angel, theres like 3-4 other players that would likely be the first pick in other drafts. Brinks, Cardosa, Jackson and Edwards are all absolute difference makers.
I think this has been the best college basketball season for women and Caitlin Clark, Cordosa , Angel Reese and so many more who have truly elevated the game for women!
I’m glad they recognize the impact of both young ladies. I started to pay more attention as a result of Angel Reese.
More than anything it's the media coverage that's different. I understand the Clark phenomena but there's always been great players. When I think back to the inaugural season the league didn't get this type of press, of course there was no social media which adds fuel to the fire.
True
Exactly, so many awesome players before. The media coverage is what's different.
actually social media has been around since the late 80s, starting with companies like Myspace then Facebook and Instagram, also NCAA regulations were pretty strict back then, remember College players weren't allowed to get any type of financial incentives or offers which then prohibited sponsorships. the NIL/NCAA agreements changed all that
Love that entire discussion!! Those are some intelligent people on the panel. They are on point about everything. Now I'm anticipating the draft and upcoming season even more.
My family will watch our first WNBA game which will also be CCs first WNBA game. We will watch them all to follow her. Her popularity with young people means kids will be joining mom and dad to watch and dream. WNBA needs to take this opportunity to drop the salary cap, add a few teams and develop more of the great talent coming out of NCAAW instead of releasing them.
“Why we don’t even have to put those two on the screen”tsk tsk😂🤣
Why STEPHAN A TALKING ABOUT ANGEL REESE WENT 1-17. Clark scored 18 points 5 of those from free throw line in the first quarter and then the last 30 min 3 quarters score only 12 points and only 7 from the field to end up losing. If RAVEN JOHNSON RAN HER RAGGED WHAT U THINK THE PLAYERS IN THE WNBA GONNA DO. STOP 🛑 IT.
Will face heavy defenders. It will be a true test.
“But ain’t nobody in front of her” 🤣 Shannon funny
Reese did her part in that elite 8 game seemed like the only one that studied for that game intercepting her passes, her teammates wasn't hitting threes and cost them that game
LSU could won but having no bench PG not scoring didn't help either
Their number one problem was not sprinting back in transition. They got killed with players like Steulke beating everyone down the floor.
Reese is Champion average 23 an 17 rebounds Caitlyn clark lost 2 championship games no criticism she not even winner😂😂😂when ever compared winners to looser
@@breonmitchell2443you sound like an angry black woman mad at a white chick cause you’re a loser.
HOPE THEY BOTH SHINE IN THE LEAGUE
I WANNA SEE WHAT CAITLIN AND PAIGE BEUCKER DOES.
Paige is staying in college for another year. But yeah just a year away and she’ll ultimately have an impact ,.. and another final four under her belt.
Caitlin is used to not playing with 5 star athletes and has had to help carry her team. She will translate great to the WNBA because she will have comparable players on her team to share the load. The tallest player on Iowa’s team was 6ft 2 that is about amazing to compete at the highest level. Those veterans were playing with Stacked All Star Teams UCONN Tennessee South Carolina . Iowa only competed in 1 final 4 before Caitlin Clark. She is different
Respectfully, I don't think either of them will be "immediate" stars. They will going up against the best of the best, many of whom who have been playing professionally for many years. WNBA players are taller, faster, stronger, and well coached. It will take at least a couple of years for them to transition.
There's a lot of washed up players still getting big minutes in the WNBA. and there's a lot of players with awful per game stats strting and playing minutes. they'll be fine and will be good right away. will they be top end players is the only question.
@@_M.... The question posed in the title of the video is whether they will immediately be stars ... not just fine, good, or ok.
Nah Clark fa sure she a curry fr
Reese is the most responsible for the impact, y’all need to acknowledge that immediately
Tim Martin is Angel Reese and Wemby's personal trainer.
CC is already a bigger star than the entire wnba
One Player Don't Win Games. Teams Do😂❤😂❤😂❤❤❤❤❤
@@sexyscorpio8087 mostly true. But if that great team wins and nobody watches did they really win. Example the las vegas aces championship parade
@@sexyscorpio8087 While this is true this is much less true for basketball compared to all other sports. Caitlin Clark is THE reason why the Iowa Hawkeyes went to back to back National Championship games.
@@Roshand-pl9tnHow many championships does Caitlyn Clark have????????? You bragging about a two-time loser, Huh..
Could be the magic and bird of women’s basketball
Perfect fit! A girl from Des Moines, Iowa has become a GOT of the college basketball and created unprecedented excitements for women's sports. This may be a historic moment we have seen in our life time. Indiana is the best place for the girl from Iowa to show the "Old American Value" that has been lost sometime.
This was the first time I ever watched The WNBA Draft... I didn't even know they had Drafts. I thought players just some how end up on a team.... 😂
Im excited for all of them❤b
I’m rooting for Caitlin, Angel, & the growth of the WNBA!
I'm sorry shes prolly going to get attacked every game shes plays in because they are overhyping here thats why diana said what she said
I think the key here is coming together with her(Caitlin) teammates, they are going to have roughly 2 weeks to prepare for preseason games. 3 1/2 weeks total until the first regular season game. I’m going to put a lot of this on the Coach. how effectively can she get vets/ rookies to buy into a plan, turn that plan into a winning concept of play, then get all players to accept roles and gel moving forward as one with the goal being to learn and WIN!!!!
She's already the biggest star in the WNBA.
If Clark turns out bad would it be the biggest bust in sports history?
Yes and if that happens that’s why the overhype is overkill and will only backfire and effect her while people make millions off her. it’s sad like just let her naturally grow
She won't
No
Bro players with that talent level don’t turn out to be bust don’t even mention it… She is a generational talent
@@agentcodybanx8909 Yes she would because her hype is through the roof.
Wish we had a team in Miami 😞
Excited for the draft and seeing how all these young ladies do in the WNBA. Caitlin put such a spotlight on the women’s game, and it’s cool that, for the first time, a huge portion of the country knows most of these ladies going into the W. Good luck to all! 🎉
"Wouldnt be surprised if she averaged 12 points to 17 points" LOL WHAT? These women trying to downplay her make absolutely no sense.
What song is that for the intro?
Usually one does not take a pay cut to play professionally.
Happy for these young ladies continue to be great ❤
Excellent question as always Ms Mollly
This is exciting for the WNBA. Can’t wait to tune in and see how this unfolds
What is the name of this song
Now you can give me a break on that comment too. Guaranteed Diana taurasi was singling out Caitlin Clark. Did you not watch the clip? She said there's levels to this thing. Hilarious. She's so jealous it's nauseating. And then she goes "I'll take Paige Buecker next question"! Diana taurasi comes across so much like a hater.
Yup only thing I didn't agree with Chiney on. Diana sounded like a straight hater
Love to see these lady commenters. They know what they’re talking about.
Sky need to get Reese and Cardoso, win the chip, and shut SAS up and all the Reese haters up forever. She is a winner. Cardoso is a winner. That translates to any level.
@filtrotp40 If winning translates to every level, how come Tim Tebow flamed out in the NFL? Mac Jones?
Championship has nothing to do with skill. So many of these girls don't make it. She has to get an outside shot, which I think she will. There is tons of competition in the league, and everyone is fighting for a spot and their is only 12 spots per team. She goes to a young team like Chicago Sky where they actually develope players she will be fine cause their will be no expectations for her first year cause it will be a young team.
I keep saying that so many times they need to draft both of them that would be a big difference🎉❤🎉❤
More like Brink/Jackson and Cardoso. Reese ain't on the level of those first two.
One of the top three picks will set some kind of record in rookie season I am sure.
It’ll be a great season for a year, imo, but we’ll see what happens the 2nd year with the new rookies. Good Luck WNBA. Steven A had great points especially regarding CC & Reese
9:40 the ladies lookin like “here go this 🥷🏿.. the one time we get a chance to speak and here HE go”😂😂😂
I love how people scream Caitlin Clark, Caitlin Clark, Caitlin Clark, Caitlin Clark.. and only if she doesn't produce in making sure the WNBA has a successful year.. now they finally want to scream Angel Reese, and other superstars.. they should stick with only mentioning Caitlin Clark all the time.. since that is there go to girl in the first place..
WNBA gonna have to market the rivals for the game to really really grow... Catlin will definitely grow the game but to sustain the growth rivalries have to be made and marketed...
Great conversation. Will Caitlin be a superstar from day 1 in the WNBA. Most likely not. Too many good players. She will get humbled on numerous occasions for sure. But I also think she will be very good. The entire draft class for the WNBA is a really good one and the league is trending in part due to this entire class and the popularity of Women's College Basketball these last few years.
The more important thing the WNBA needs to do is to figure out how to showcase and market the league. This feels very similar to the NBA in the late 70s going into the early 80s. There were fabulous players in the 60s and 70s. Bill and Wilt, Oscar, Dr. J and on and on...but the league was not popular on TV. Heck even when Magic and Bird come into the league in 1979 and Magic's Lakers make the Finals, some of those games were pre-recorded and televised late at night. That was the NBA Finals.
But then you had a guy like David Stern, who was not yet commissioner, who knew the league needed to be marketed differently than the NFL or MLB. He managed to get more advertising around the unique skills of the players...and then Michael Jordan came along and the world changed. David knew that MJ needed to be the signature piece of the marketing, even if Magic and Bird were on better teams. Kareem, Dr J, and other greats were amazing players but he knew that the marketing would be more effective when pushing the new up-and-coming talent. That was Bird, Magic, Isaiah, Charles, Patrick, The Dream, and mostly MJ.
Think about the brilliance of Spike Lee and the Mars Blackman commercials. The McDonald's commercials featuring Bird and Jordan making astonishing shots for a free lunch. Think about Nike literally betting the future of their company around MJ and the Air Jordan sneaker, and so many more. This is what the WNBA needs and they will have to figure out a unique way of doing this that makes sense, enhances the popularity of their game, shines a light on these women, and ultimately brings fans and revenue to their arenas (and on TV). The cities that have WNBA teams need to think about this as an economic growth center that helps to bring more businesses, jobs, and fun to their cities. I hope it happens.
Agreed 💯, amazing breakdown
Yo, he likened Angel Reese to Dennis Rodman as I was thinking she's number 10 and going to Chicago!
Caitlin Clark will be an immediate star for sure. I think it's going to take some time for Angel Reese to be a star. She's too similar to a lot of other players that are already in the WNBA. Caitlin Clark is a very rare type of player. No one's ever done the things that she's done before. She's captured the attention of the entire nation.
Caitlin is not going to be shooting lights out right away in the WNBA. Look at how SC Johnson shut her down after the first quarter. Steph Curry didn’t come in the league and become an immediate superstar. It took 3 years. Angel and Caitlin will both have to work on their games.
@@loisperez1722 Of course she'll shoot lights out right away in the WNBA.
Shooting is shooting. It doesn't just go away. And she shoots better than almost any human on the planet.
Her passing is transcendent.
And this isn't the NBA like Steph Curry had to join. Her talent level aligns with a lot of these WNBA women.
And she'll have the best teammates she's ever had in her life.
No one in the WNBA has ever had the type of game Caitlin has. You can't name one player except Steph Curry that shoots from the logo consistently with plenty of time left on the clock and with no rebounders under the basket.
I think you're being a little naive.
She's going to go into that league and pop the cork off. 🏀🔥
@@DanDolphin4 time will tell
I really do hope they help take the league to new heights
Aja was just like that before going into wnba now she a beast in the paint
Angel Reese can learn a lot from her
Just got back from Burger King, they outdid themselves with that Spicy Chicken sandwich. 10/10, will go again! Pretty sure Grimer made it. It would make sense.
I know Clark for sure
Well judging by all the coverage actoss all social media platforms & mainstream media networks, both of them are already icons wiithin the sport & outside the sport. How they progress in the WNBA for thier teams will also be a huge factor in wheather that 'star quality' they have will be enough to keep all the 'fairweather' sports fans & media interested🤔👩🏀
Short answer to question in title...
"No".
Just gave you back 13 minutes of your life. You're welcome.
If nothing else, they will bring the crowd and the viewers.
Calling the WNBA the most competitive league in the world is literally hilarious. Nobody is trying to play in the WNBA
5 mil Ms Clark or a few hundred thousand in the wnba? Hmm 🤔
Caitlin wants to be treated seriously. She's a woman. Not a man. She doesn't want a sideshow.
Think about this
what attracts viewers now are long range 3 point shooters like Steph curry. caitin clark. no windmill. reverse or alley-oop dunks yet in wnba
and never will be!
“The WNBA is the most competitive league in the world” 🤣🤣🤣💀💀💀. It might be the most exclusive but it’s nowhere near the most competitive.
CC gonna pull a Michael carter Williams debut almost putting up a quadruple Double
Love these girls, but maya Moore changed women’s basketball forever.
Angel Reese and Caitlin Clark have the charisma to make WBB great again 🎉🎉
SUPER COOL!!!
A GAME CHANGER HERE!!!🙏🙏🙏
The biggest PROBLEM is that the WNBA draft won't be on FREE TV. It's ESPN only according to my quick TV search. If the league wants to grow, put the WNBA DRAFT on FREE TV. Not going to buy ESPN package nor go to some bar just to watch any DRAFT. By the way, the NFL draft will be on FREE TV, ABC. So I don't get not having this WNBA DRAFT on FREE TV. Also, both Stars underperformed in their last game. How well either star will perform, well that might be more dependent on how the REFs make or don't make calls for them. Bad Refs can turn a good player into a GREAT player.
Big facts!
This is not the fault of the WNBA. I think had Clark and Reese declared they were entering the draft before their senior seasons than it's more likely than not the draft would've been on ABC (maybe even on a Friday or weekend). Cable companies have to know far in advance what they're going to show and if it's going to get higher ratings than regular schedule programming so they can get the advertising dollars as well. Simply a case of too little, too late lol
I'll be going to aee Caitlin Clark play this year. Indiana is about to make a lot of money. The downside is that Caitlin Clark isn't playing on every WNBA team. The rest of the league will still struggle to sell tickets
I think at the beginng there will definitely be a knock on effect (especially for those teams that picked up other high profile players in this draft such as Chicago or the LA Sparks). This happened with the newly formed PWHL which saw really high ratings over the first couple of weeks (despite the league being hastily cobbled together because "this time it was different"). That initial enthusiaism is going taper off as we get further into summer and people don't want to spend their time watching anything on TV let alone sports, but they're still going to retain a healthy amount of those people even if it's not as crazy as it initially was.
@kiroolioneaver8532 I think you're right. The entire league will get a boost in the beginning, but over time, if Caitlin keeps playing the way she plays, she'll be the only draw. Angel Reese name is big but her game is like the rest of the women. She won't he a big draw. The next big draw will be Juju Watkins in 3 years for sure
@@RushBig0786 Don't forget Paige Buckets lol (who really would've helped the league by declaring for the draft this year) if she can stay healthy she could also help.
@@kiroolioneaver8532 idk if Paige will push the numbers the way Caitlin does. Paige is good but we've seen her game in the WNBA. We've never seen anyone like Caitlin in that league. I think their next best bet is Juju Watkins so far. Paige is good but I'm not missing an event to watch Paige. I might call off work to see Caitlin or Juju( not literally ) but you get my point lol
They sleeping on Liz Kitley.
The biggest impact individually wise will be for Ailyah Boston as teams will be focusing more on Caitlyn than her.
Time to pick on the seniors
12-17 ppg ? Jealousy is real
Angel is going to keep making a name for herself. I just her jersey and tickets for the Sky v Sparks game in California 🏆🏀👸🏽
If she come in averaging 25 to 30 I wonder what they would say. Lebron and Melo hit the ground running soon as they got in the NBA they just not use to someone being so hyped coming in. I would love to go back and see what they were saying about C.Parker pre draft
They’re gonna be forgotten and things will go back to normal.
Correct. Just like the Britany Griener hype machine.
SM age and they are TALENTED...so your wrong casual fan...things do CHANGE
@@BryantBrothers-gm1qx how am I wrong? They’ll still make peanuts, they’ll still have to go overseas, the arenas still won’t sell out and nobody buys the merch. One draft won’t change that.
Good point on Angel, Stephen A. Yes she's a great rebounder, but half her offensive rebounds are her own missed bunnies and mid-range shots. She's rough at the foul line too. She'll have great coaching though in the league and I'm sure they'll help her get that great shooting muscle memory down.
Well Moses Malone basically did the same. What a great career he had. Just putting back his own shots.
What Reese for her eyelash and fake blush? lol lol
It just me or does Caitlin Clark have the same looking face as Théo Pourchaire?
She's a victim😂
Why not..All Women Night? #ESPN #ESPNDEPORTES
Cant wait to see reese in the WNBA SDC
SHE'S THE ONE, I CAN FEEL IT, AND EVERYBODY ELSE FEELS IT 🙏 🙏 🙏I'VE NEVER WATCHED A FEMALE BASKETBALL GAME UNTIL SHE STARTED PLAYING AND SHE DELIVERED
I don't think this will matter much at all. I do hope the WNBA gets more viewership. But March Madness is not the same as a regular season. People will watch the first game (maybe) but will they watch all season? This is during the NBA playoffs too, good luck.
She’s gonna be the first wnba player ever to have a million dollar a year salary
No way cc avg less than 20
I wonder how Clark would have done if she had the same pressures as Angel Reese?
Steven had to be devil advocate I guess and doubt the Sister.
Clark was full if pressure. What are you talking about. She had more than anyone out their. You don't think she got death threats? She can't go anywhere without security. She carried womens basketball. That is alot of pressure for anyone.
Same pressure and reese? Youre joking right? Its the exact opposite 🤣🤣
Steven makes 12 million per year
. More than a lot of coaches, athletes. He does his job well and he's the new Howard Cossel. He and Unc Sharpe were born with gab. They are medicine men of sports. Entertainment making all the big bucks.
Clark had more pressure than angel reese, the fact that she's in every commercial, every wnba draft discussion, every women's basketball discussion, there's more expectations than any WNBA prospect ever
Why both laddies failing to mention Reese it’s because of angle Reese & Clark on why ppl are going to watch the draft. Give Reese her props a lot of ppl started to watch women’s college ball last year & this year because of both laddies
Her game will show on court besides the ankle it's all good ❤
