"While Caitlin is fantastic and I think she's going to have an incredible career in the WNBA, there were women who were worthy of coverage prior to her, and I will not be silenced when it comes to that." Basketball analyst, host, ESPN reporter, and NY Knicks Radio analyst Monica NcNutt breaks down her viral debate with Stephen A. Smith about Caitlin Clark and the WNBA and discusses the larger underlying issues of gender, race, and class that impact the way people talk about women’s basketball. She and Jon Stewart discuss the WNBA’s journey to this moment of boosted popularity, and what new fans of the league should know about the women who have spent the last 30 years building it. #DailyShow #WNBA #MonicaMcNutt

There were girls worthy of coverage before Clark, according to Monica but they weren’t covered because nobody cared. Nobody can explain the “it factor” but Tiger Woods has it, Jordan has it, Ali had it, Beyoncé has it. Taylor Swift has it. Telling us that other athletes or the sport deserve this attention isn’t how this works. Some people get a disproportionate amount of attention or they propel a sport because they have something that compels us to watch or care about them. That person in female basketball is Caitlin, love it or hate it.

@@nucnuc7591 Here's the thing. I believe you when you say those words. The issue is that some of CC's fandom (again, not you) are absolutely disparaging the people that have come before Caitlin as an effort to build her up, which is unnecessary. Whatever you're reason is for loving Caitlin, have it, but there's no need to down those before her. If you like Caitlin's skill on the court, you'll find that there are in fact women that have been doing it at or better than Caitlin's level now and before, outside of her range. Caitlin's range is absolutely special. That's the point that's Monica is making and it's a direct response to the people I mentioned earlier in this comment, not you.

Well Indiana's home attendance is up by 72.5%. DC has been averaging 4k fans this season and Clark's away game in DC drew over 20k... such an increase that DC had to move the game to a bigger venue to accommodate them. She's bringing more eyes to the sport than there have ever been before. WNBA players have been very vocal about wanting better pay, and the way that is accomplished is through attendance, league revenue and generally increased interest. Clark has been an incredible boon to the league. It seems flat out ridiculous for people to discredit the popularity Caitlyn has brought while simultaneously demanding the benefits that increased popularity brings. She may not be the best player in the league right now, but she's EASILY the most lucrative.

@keithgupton9349 3 месяца назад

The Las Vegas Ace have sold out 15 of their 20 home games. That has absolutely nothing to do with CC . CC isn't the savoir of the WNBA.

There is a difference, and unsportsmanlike behavior is not making the game better…that is my preference. As a coach in youth sports I always pushed fast, aggressive tactics, but never tolerated unsportsmanlike behavior from my players.

@alvinjohnson2402 3 месяца назад

Many of the WNBA players do not complain about the money. A few did and the media blew it up like all the women wanted more money! Just like how they are blowing up CC like she's MJ. She needs to rest, get stronger, add a midrange shot, dribble too high (always getting a turnover), and work on going left(which is her Achilles heel)Teams know she doesn't shoot well going left!! BUT she's an uncanny passer.

@@JCChavz Agreed. She was wrong in many ways. Stewart and Monica are completely missing the point. They are acting like Clark is the first white star in WNBA. Many of the best players are white...Stewart, Bird, Turasi, to name a few. But all of a sudden, it is now a "race" thing. Clark broke a ton of college records and was playing like Seth Curry. How stars are treated transcends multiple other sports. For example, remember Michael Jordan and the "Jordan Rules". Remember how David Stern started cracking down on the physicality of the sport to protect stars.

@@MrNodeeeI think you are actually proving her point. Literally all great players like MJ and even Curry went through tough play when they got into the pros. CC in reality needs this experience to make her better. Right now she’s ranked as the 6th best rookie in her class.

Have you watched the WNBA? Are you even remotely familiar with Monica's accomplishments, involvement, and knowledge of the sport? And do you seriously think that was "assault"? haha. Do you watch sports at all? Maybe I watch too much ice hockey, but that was a simple body check. Honestly, after watching the video again, Caitlin oversold. haha. That was equivalent to a small push. To even remotely claim that as "assault" is asinine, and it shows that you are ignorant to how the women play in the WNBA.

@treborkroy5280 3 месяца назад

@jcsjapan 3 месяца назад

@@treborkroy5280 That was a body check. Nothing more. Have you ever been hit by one? I have hundreds of times. They don't hurt that much. They have the equivalence of a medium-strength push, which is absolutely not assault. Physically assault is defined as violence use of force to inflict pain, such as a punch, kick, or other strike. Pushing and body checking are part of contact sports, and last I checked, basketball is a contact sport. As I said in my first response, if you have ever watched the WNBA, they are much more aggressive than the NBA, as Monica pointed out in the interview. For you to see it any other way shows ignorance or only a concern for Ms Clark, which potentially opens up a different can of worms.

Jon, It would help if you saw and understood what transpired. Chennedy Carter walked over in a non-play moment and knocked Caitlin Clark to the ground.
