If I wanted to, I could make this video an hour long, but I’ll keep it brief. Cheryl Swoops, one of the greatest WNBA players of all time, appears to be somewhat threatened by Caitlin Clark’s rise. Clark broke Swoops’ record for most points in a single NCAA tournament and achieved several historic milestones, including the first 40-point triple-double in tournament history. Her accomplishments have been remarkable, including surpassing Kelsey Plum’s all-time college career points record.

Some argue that breaking records should be done within the same timeframe as the original record-holder, but that’s a flawed perspective. Clark’s achievements were done in fewer games and with greater efficiency. Despite initial criticisms and doubts about her dominance in the WNBA, Clark has proven herself with strong performances, particularly after the Olympic break.

The debate around Rookie of the Year between Clark and Angel Reese is ongoing, but Clark’s recent performances and her impact on the Fever’s standings suggest she’s ahead. She’s had impressive games, including a recent 31-point game against the Chicago Sky, and she’s shown significant support from fans even in opposing territories.

There’s been some controversy, such as Swoops’ recent comments on her podcast and a perceived slight from Team USA, which only adds to the tension. The debate over Rookie of the Year and MVP candidacy continues, and it’s clear that Caitlin Clark is making a strong case for herself.
