NBA All Star Roasts Sheryl Swoope Over Harsh Caitlin Clark Comments Ahead of First WNBA Playoff Game
NBA All-Star Roasts Cheryl Swoops Over Criticism of Caitlyn Clark Ahead of Playoffs
An NBA All-Star recently called out Cheryl Swoops for her critical comments about rookie Caitlyn Clark, who has been nothing short of spectacular this season. As the 2024 WNBA regular season comes to a close and the playoffs approach, it’s clear that Clark of the Indiana Fever has made a significant impact, boasting one of the best rookie seasons in league history. She set remarkable attendance records, including the highest attendance in WNBA history during her final game.
Despite her achievements, Swoops expressed skepticism about Clark’s dominance in the league, a statement that sparked backlash in the sports community. In response to Swoops’ remarks, NBA All-Star Dejounte Murray took to Instagram, sharing his disbelief and using a string of laughing emojis to highlight how absurd it is for anyone to downplay Clark’s achievements.
Murray pointed out that Clark finished fourth in the MVP voting, solidifying her status as a strong contender for Rookie of the Year. Notably, she averaged more points per game in scoring and assists than the eventual MVP, A’ja Wilson. While not everyone may be a fan of Clark, Murray emphasized the importance of recognizing her outstanding performance, especially for a rookie. He made it clear to Swoops that credit is due where it’s deserved.
