Following years of widespread media neglect of women’s basketball, the arrival of hooper Caitlin Clark to the WNBA has brought a rush of new attention to the sport. And unfortunately that has spawned some cringeworthy commentary — by men, in particular. Now that Clark's playing in the league, it’s seemingly become de rigeur for men of the sporting commentariat to signal their support for the WNBA not just with gushing praise for Clark but by diminishing her competitors.
' He's not wrong that Clark's popularity is a boon for the league, but his eagerness to take unnamed critics to task struck me as odd. And when a take is touted by the right-wing sports media platform Outkick — as James' Clark comments were — it's worth looking into why that is. 'I’m rooting for Caitlin because I’ve been in that seat before, I’ve walked that road before,” James said, going on to compare Clark to his son LeBron James Jr.
