The Caitlin Clark Hate Is Getting Disgusting
Caitlin Clark has been one of the biggest celebrities in the sports world over the past year, and after back-to-back national championship appearances with Iowa, she was selected first in the WNBA Draft.
Of course, Clark became the number one hated player in the WNBA because of how great she was, and other players were jealous of her fame and success; this season, she was left off the Olympic team out of pure jealousy from all the players.
Clark has made the WNBA must-watch TV, and even though her season ended last week after being eliminated from the playoffs in two games, she still brought home some awards during the year.
The former Iowa star was named Rookie of the Year and was one vote away from being unanimous, but someone didn't vote for her.
The vote went to Chicago Sky's forward Angel Reese, who has had a nice season but didn't compare close to Clarks.

Clark set almost every record by a WNBA rookie, but one person didn't vote for her because they didn't want her to be unanimous Rookie of the Year out of pure hate.
The voter should never be allowed to vote on any WNBA awards again because they are clearly not voting on what the player does on the court, but more on how they feel about how they don't like the player.
It's time to accept that Clark is the WNBA and has carried the entire league this season, and if it weren't for her, nobody would have any interest.
The players, fans, and media should thank Clark for everything she has done for the league and not hate on her. Maybe next season, some of them will wake up and realize all the good she has brought to the league.
