LeBron James Doesn’t Hold Back Thoughts On Caitlin Clark
The WNBA continues to set viewership and attendance records after a massive influx of fans to the sport.
Many would say Caitlin Clark is the reason there are more eyeballs on the WNBA than ever before. Count Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James among those who believe Clark is the driving force behind the records being set across the WNBA.
“The one thing that I love that she is bringing to her sport: more people want to watch, more people want to tune in.” LeBron said to co-host JJ Redick on the “Mind the Game” podcast. “Don’t get it twisted, don’t get it [expletive] up: Caitlin Clark is the reason why a lot of great things are going to happen for the WNBA.”
He didn’t just give Clark her flowers, though. The future Hall of Famer who’s been in the NBA for over half of his life also dolled out some advice for the young rookie.
“My advice to Caitlin, and my advice to anyone that comes in with this level of notoriety, out-of-this-world expectation, whatever the case may be, be a horse, man. The Kentucky Derby. Put your blinders on, go to work, show up to work, punch your clock in, prepare yourself, work on your game, work on your craft.
“Kind of keep your mouth shut and just learn from the vets. When they ask, voice your opinion if they want your opinion early because everybody is looking for you to say anything and they’re gonna splice it and cut it and make it a negative thing.”
Clark and the Fever are off to an 0-4 start, but will look to end their losing streak tonight against the Seattle Storm.
Can the Fever find their first win?
