Even after whatever she's won and achieved, Caitlin Clark still has her haters.
Clark handled her share of criticism when going into the WNBA this previous year and wound up showing all her critics incorrect after topping off a historical novice season. The Indiana Fever star will likely just improve from here, geared up with a brand-new, knowledgeable coach in Stephanie White and a group that is coming off a playoff look for the very first time considering that 2016.
Regardless of Clark's emerging supremacy in females's hoops, she would not stand a possibility versus a G-leaguer like Bronny James according to previous NBA All-Star Jeff Teague.
Teague, a 12-year veterinarian who won a champion with the Milwaukee Bucks, believes Clark would get severely beaten by the Los Angeles Lakers novice in a theoretical 1-on-1 contest.
“Caitlin would not score a point on Bronny, brother,” Teague stated on the Club 520 podcast (at the 3:00 mark in the video). “She may not even get a shot off, brother … He would beat her by 60 (points). He would legit beat her 20-0. Bryce James would beat her 20-0.
“That's my entire point, he is 10 times more athletic than her. He can do whatever much better than her. She's a woman, brother … She a hooper, however no, brother, that's a male.”
Teague likewise stated he believed Clark would just have the ability to beat “high school kids.”
Teague's co-hosts pressed back on his take stating they believed Clark might a minimum of handle Division I guys's college hoopers, however Teague stayed staunchly in rejection.
Clark, who turns 23 in January, just recently included another award to her glittering resume of honors, which especially consist of WNBA Rookie of the Year and the NCAA Division I scoring title for males and females. Her No. 22 jersey for Iowa will be retired at Carver-Hawkeye Arena on Feb. 2.
