This was not pretty.
The WNBA is a trainwreck. They finally have a star that people want to watch and the players go crazy with hate and jealousy.
Today Caitlin Clark was assaulted during a game with the Chicago team in the WNBA.
ASSAULT!

Many believe that Clark is the only reason they watch the WNBA.
The cheap shots on Caitlin Clark are an embarrassment for the WNBA. This player should be suspended.
Clark is the only reason I’m even watching a WNBA game right now. What a joke. pic.twitter.com/iUagyHYgLK

Today was the Indiana Fever’s 7th sellout of the season. Clark’s team is leading the league in attendance.

Clark is leading the WNBA in total points and assist points combined. Her numbers are more than 100 points more than any other rookie.
Clark’s games at the WNBA are the most watched WNBA games on ESPN and ABC ever.
Clark is bringing an estimated $100 million to the league and this is how the women respond.
This play by the WNBA team in Jersey was not called a foul.
Never seen a savior of a league get treated like this https://t.co/TXNEd4umbl

This assault in another game was not called a penalty. The woman nearly knocked Clark’s head off.
I invested $100,000 into WNBA stocks just before Caitlin Clark was drafted, thinking she would take this eye sore of a stud league to the next level. 5 games into her career & I’m pulling my investments. This league is beyond saving. No foul calls on assault & battery. Cooked. pic.twitter.com/GhSygLTZXa
