people didn't notice the game they're noticing it now well that's because of Caitlyn Clark not Angel Reese on August 30th 2024 Caitlyn Clark hit the court against the Chicago sky and left Angel Reese questioning her career choices Caitlyn didn't just leave her in the dust she broke a record that once again left the entire WNBA gasping and let's be real for a second is it just me or does it truly feel like breaking records has become as easy for Caitlyn as tying her sh sh as Smith said I love Caitlyn Clark she's been a guest on this show I think she's spectacular I'm the one that's been calling her the Steph Curry of women's basketball and she has done nothing to to to push that back I mean this this young lady is spectacular she's been great for women's basketball overall not just college basketball honestly I can't remember the last time we saw a WNBA season where a team wasn't smashing some kind of record every other game the wnba's cash flow right now could bankroll your great grandkids to live in absolute luxury but while we're busy popping champagne poor Angel's off somewhere crying her eyes out but before we get into the latest mind-blowing record Caitlyn Clark just smashed two days ago let's talk about why the Caitlyn Clark effect is driving fans absolutely wild since the Olympic break the Indiana Fever have been on a rampage like they found some secret sauce for winning they've racked up five wins out of their last six games leaving their opponents in the dust and their fans buzzing with excitement Caitlyn Clark is the reason why everybody has an opinion on what happened in that game it's Caitlyn Clark Caitlyn Clark has become the heartbeat of this team's insane comeback it seems like she's been playing in the league for years not just months game after game she's out there setting new records making the court her own personal playground she's flipping the script on what it means to be a rookie in the WNBA just look at that one game where she knocked down five three-pointers and dished out 12 assists and let's not forget she made history as the first rookie ever to drop at least 30 points and hand out 10 assists in a single game Kevin Clark is a hell of a player player for sure but I don't take disrespect lightly and she disrespected Alexis and My Girls South Carolina they still my SEC Girls too that yall not going to disrespect them either so I had I I wanted to pick her pocket but I I had a moment at the end of the game and that was just I was in my bag I was in my moment yeah and then there's her rivalry with Angel Reese which has been one of the most talked about rookie matchups this season but guess what Caitlyn's got the upper hand taking a three one lead in their four matchups so far She's Not Just winning she's outshining Reese every time proving that she's the top rookie in the league hands down but Caitlyn's impact isn't just on the scoreboard it's everywhere the Indiana fever's home games have turned into absolute mustsee events ticket price to see the rivals play are the most expensive for a WNBA game ever according to tick pic the cheapest seat to see the game cost around $250 with the most expensive ticket on sale for more than $9,000 the rematch comes on the heels of the Reese Clark rematch last Sunday which was the most watched WNBA game in 23 years according to CBS Sports attendance has shot up by a crazy 265 and it's not just about people showing up to watch B basketball they're coming to see Caitlyn Clark do her thing to witness greatness in the making the energy in those Arenas off the charts viewership for games featuring Caitlyn has skyrocketed by 200% now if you think Caitlyn Clark's on court dominance is the only thing Turning Heads wait until you hear what the loudest voice in sports Stephan Smith had to say about her and as we know when Stefan talks people scream back at him but either way he's got everyone's attention he straight up declared the WNBA is going to be happy when they push it past 200 million in terms of Revenue which they easily will do because Caitlyn Clark's mere existence has seen to that according to Stephan A the League's bank account is about to explode and it's all because of one rookie not just any rookie though Caitlyn Clark we're talking about a level of influence that's usually reserved for the likes of Michael Jordan or LeBron James but here we are with Stephan A Smith basically saying if she a wave her hand in Caitlyn Clark's face or in her face mimicking what Caitlyn Clark had done to numerous opponents she had slayed if Angel Reese had not done that angrew Reese would not have been a household name but here's where it gets interesting Stephan A's bold Proclamation doesn't just shine a spotlight on Caitlyn it also throws some serious shade on the rest of the league I mean if you take Caitlyn out of the picture what's left it's a harsh reality but it's true the League's fortunes are increasingly tied to one player and while that's great for Caitlyn it's got a sting a bit for everyone else especially when your name's Angel Reese Stephan A also threw a little gasoline on the fire of the growing rivalry between her and Angel Reese we have to acknowledge what the hell is going on it's not something to hate it's something to appreciate go after Caitlyn Clark beat her down as much as you Poss possibly can get the best of her angel Reese go out there and win you understand it's not an accident that you waved your hand in front of her face when y'all beat them translation the jealousy is real and it's not going away anytime soon because just imagine being another top rookie and constantly hearing about how the League's future is riding on someone else's shoulders yeah that's got to feel pretty rough but here's the kicker despite all this attention all this hype Caitlyn Clark remains ridiculously grounded her response was refreshingly humble both of our teams are competing for playoff spots like that's our main focus that's a selfish thing to just care about an individual award and she would give you the same exact answer I'm sure she has given you the same exact answer so um for us like everybody can write that but our focus is on winning basketball games as simple as that seriously how do you not love that while Stephan A is out here placing the League's future on her shoulders Clark's just over here deflecting all that praise and shining the light on her team instead she's not caught up in the records or the accolades she's all about the wins and she's taking her team along for the ride it's rare to see that level of humility in an athlete who's being hyped up like she is most would be basking in the glory but not Caitlyn she's all about the bigger picture and just when you think the hype couldn't get any louder Here Comes Stephan A Smith with another one of his classic mic drop moments Caitlyn Clark is the Golden Goose and Angel Reese has figured out a way to Market herself and to be marketable and to some degree orbe it a small degree maybe utilize Caitlyn Clark's presence to pull it off this is not an insult this is acknowledging Angel Reese was smart that's not a crime now that's a pretty powerful observation and it cuts right to the core of what's going on in sports today leveraging someone else's Fame to boost your own profile in this era where every tweet smirk or side eye can go viral in seconds players like Angel Reese are getting Savvy about how they present themselves they figured out that it's not just about what happens on the court nope it's about how you play the game off the court too and Angel she's realized that Caitlyn Clark's rocket fueled rise can be a springboard for her own brand by engaging with Clark whether it's through Fierce competition a well-timed comment or a little side eye Reese is making sure she stays in the conversation right alongside Caitlyn it's a clever move because the more people talk about Clark the more they're talking about Reese too athletes know that in today's world controversy is a hot commodity the line between positive and negative attention is practically non-existent you don't have to be universally love to be marketable anymore in fact a little controversy can keep you right at the top of the news CLE and Angel Reese she's mastered this art but let's not get it twisted it's not just about riding someone else's W Dan Patrick who's seen it all in the world of sports broadcasting and is notoriously hard to impress hit the nail on the head when he said but there's nothing wrong with admitting that you watch a sport because of One Singular person Patrick didn't hold back either he laid it out plainly WNBA has been around a couple of decades and and people didn't notice the game they're noticing it now well that's because of Caitlyn Clark not Angel Reese that's got to sting especially for players like Reese who are trying to make a name for themselves in the league it's like working your whole life for something only to have someone else come along and steal the show but that's the reality check Patrick is offering despite all the talent and hard work across the WNBA it's Caitlyn Clark who's finally making people pay attention now I know you're on the edge of your seat just itching to hear about the latest record Caitlyn Clark pulled off so let's dive into it without any of those cringeworthy words of course so on August 30th 2024 Caitlyn Clark decided to throw her own personal fireworks show on the court and the numbers don't just speak for themselves they're practically shouting in what was her final regular season Showdown against her fellow rookie sensation Angel Reese Caitlyn decided to drop a career high 31 points just for fun and casual dished out 12 assists while she was at it oh and did I mention she led the Indiana Fever to a dominant 100 81 victory over the Chicago Sky her shooting was on fire she went 8 for 14 from the field and just to make things even more impressive she nailed five of nine from Beyond The Ark it's like she was out there with a sniper Precision but here's the thing Caitlyn isn't just about scoring those 12 assists that's it's her making sure her teammates shine too this game marked her 11th double double of the season and get this she's now the only player in WNBA history to have three games with at
