Lonely in the WNBA: Caitlin Clark’s Struggle with Support

By Joël Pütz | Sports journalist

A phenomenon of women’s basketball, Cailtin Clark embodies the future of the WNBA and especially that of her franchise, the Indiana Fever. But nearly two months after her professional debut, the young player has released a worrying clarification…

Not a week goes by without talking about the WNBA and especially Caitlin Clark. Drafted first overall this spring after dropping a legendary college career, the point guard has literally blown up the media coverage of the women’s basketball league. She’s not the only one to have contributed to this of course, but the hype that has surrounded her for months is beyond comparison.

The former Iowa player has been on the WNBA court for six weeks now. It’s been a turbulent start, as she was at the heart of a controversy based on anti-white racism and was openly targeted by her opponents on the court. But judging by the nugget’s recent comments to journalists, it seems that she is not exactly supported within her own locker room…

But even so, your teammates aren’t willing to give you advice… The Fever roster may be young, but it does include players like Erica Wheeler and Damiris Dantas, who each have eight WNBA seasons under their belts. So they could teach Clark a lot during her rookie year…

They’re too busy hating her, it’s sad 🤦🏽‍♂️

Damn I feel bad for her 😕

Is Caitlin Clark totally lonely in the WNBA, including within her own team? We are entitled to ask the question after the words of the playmaker. Clearly, her debut at the professional level is really not easy…
