\n

Caitlin Clark<\/a> is at the center of the WNBA universe for a reason: she’s the best.<\/p>\n

Names like A’ja Wilson<\/a> can challenge Clark on an MVP level, but at her position, no one can score and assist like Clark.<\/p>\n

Clark’s WNBA cohorts beg to differ, voting her the 11th-best guard in the league.<\/p>\n

CAITLIN CLARK’S PEERS MAKE IT CRYSTAL CLEAR THEY HATE HER WITH INSULTING ALL-STAR GAME VOTE<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Now it’s no secret that fellow WNBAers have been jealous of Clark’s popularity and appeal. The list was another example of the league-wide anti-Clark campaign.<\/p>\n

Take it from WNBA legend Candace Parker, who made the point while speaking with Clark’s Fever teammate<\/a>, Aliyah Boston.<\/p>\n

Parker went off on Clark’s 11th spot in the peer-voted survey, saying the league ought to quit being disrespectful to Clark and give her some flowers.<\/p>\n

She said, “It’s also kinda crazy. I wholeheartedly believe that there need to be some rules with the WNBA players, because this is getting out of hand. Caitlin Clark [being] voted 11th-best guard by WNBA players, that’s crazy.”<\/p>\n

Parker called out the insecurities that continue to poison the well in the WNBA, where too many players have chosen resentment over respect.<\/p>\n

The WNBA media is most guilty of this.<\/p>\n

“I think people need to look at themselves in the mirror and realize you’ve got some insecurities, if you’re sitting down and putting Caitlin Clark as the 11th-best guard.<\/p>\n

WNBA WANTS A BIGGER STORY THAN CAITLIN CLARK, BUT TV RATINGS KEEP POINTING BACK TO HER<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

“Y’all need to go to a therapist and figure out what childhood issues you have, ’cause if you’re sitting there, and looking at yourself in the mirror, and putting her at the 11th-best guard like c’mon.”<\/p>\n

Parker led a celebrated career with three championships, two MVP awards, a Finals MVP and Defensive Player of the Year honors. She was also a seven-time All-Star and two-time Olympic gold medalist.<\/p>\n

In Parker’s view, she would never have tried to launch an anti-campaign against some of the biggest stars from her days in the league.<\/p>\n

“When I sat down, as much as I did not like Diana Taurasi, there ain’t no way I’m not going to write her as an All-Star.”<\/p>\n

“As much as I did not like anyone on the Lynx because they used to whoop our a**, I’m not going to not put Maya Moore or Sylvia Fowles.”<\/p>\n

Fans account for 50% of the All-Star vote, while players and media each make up 25%.<\/p>\n

Heading into a Wednesday night matchup with the Sparks<\/a>, Clark is averaging 21.2 points, 8.2 assists, 4.0 rebounds and 0.8 steals in 30.8 minutes per game.<\/p>\n

Clark finished second overall in fan voting and earned a starting spot thanks to fans and the media, not her fellow players.<\/p>\n

To tamp down the Clark hype<\/a>, WNBA players, former players and media have aimed at the Fever guard, believing she’s been “overhyped,” disregarding the phenomenon that’s followed her since college.<\/p>\n

Her appeal should be championed, even if WNBA players don’t see it that way.<\/p>\n

Since Clark entered the WNBA, the league has shattered attendance and viewership records. The WNBA averaged 9,807 fans per game in 2024, a 48% jump from the previous season. Total attendance topped 2.35 million, sellouts skyrocketed from 45 to 154, and the league followed that by setting another single-season attendance record in 2025.<\/p>\n

She’s been rocket fuel for the league, the sparkplug behind the Fever alongside All-Stars Aliyah Boston and Kelsey Mitchell, and a solid leader in her own right.<\/p>\n

Clark’s most ardent supporters have called for her to switch leagues to really put a squeeze on the WNBA.<\/p>\n

Without Clark, the WNBA would be back to inventing promotional nights just to fill seats.<\/p>\n
