After her spectacular college basketball career with Iowa, Caitlin Clark arrived in the WNBA to revolutionize the league. Although Indiana Fever were the ‘winners’ with that historic No.1 overall pick, the reality is that economically all the teams have gained significant benefits.

However, the effect on the court seems to be quite the opposite. Most of her opponents have shown excessive physicality, which seems to indicate some resentment towards the star’s popularity.

The latest episode of this occurred when Chennedy Carter, in a play without the ball in dispute, violently struck Caitlin Clark in the game between Indiana Fever and the Chicago Sky.

In what could reinforce the theory that Caitlin Clark doesn’t seem to be liked among her rivals, when Chennedy Carter struck the rookie, Angel Reese, her great adversary in college basketball with LSU, stood up and clearly applauded the aggression. By the way, Chennedy ‘thanked’ that gesture from Reese during all her replies on Threads.

The interesting thing about the situation is that, thanks to Clark’s arrival, the players have had great benefits such as prime-time TV schedules and private flights. Therefore, millions of fans don’t understand how they can go beyond the rules to try to stop Caitlin.
