Caitlin Clark’s notoriety has led to a lot of negative reactions, with Dave Portnoy sharing his take on why she gets the treatment she does.
The WNBA left Caitlin Clark off their 30th anniversary poster, leading to strong fan reactions which considered it a disrespectful gesture to the athlete who’s popularized the WNBA to new heights.
Barstool Sports’ Dave Portnoy shares his theory on why the WNBA would do something like this to Clark.
On the Wake Up Barstool show, Portnoy made it clear that WNBA’s treatment of Clark reeks of ‘jealousy and hypocrisy,’ implying the league resents its biggest star because her popularity preceded the WNBA.
“No one has ever come into the league like she has, it’s jealousy, it’s hypocrisy, and just not knowing where your bread is **** ered… They don’t like that she has been crowned this queen of the league before she even showed up, and they want to make a point about it, and they continue to make a point about it.”
