The Caitlin Clark<\/a> Hate Tour rolled on this week in the WNBA, and the Fever star didn’t even have to take a fist to the throat this time.<\/p>\n

This one, however, may somehow hurt even more.<\/p>\n

According to her peers, Clark is the 11th-best guard in the league. That’s right. Eleven! The 24-year-old was voted as a starter in the July 25 All-Star game, but the breakdown of how the league, media, and fans voted raised some eyebrows.<\/p>\n

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

The fans voted Clark as the second-best guard in the league, behind Paige Bueckers<\/a>. That’s fair.<\/p>\n

The media voted Clark as the third-best guard in the league. Again, pretty fair.<\/p>\n

Her fellow WNBA players, amazingly, ranked her 11th, which is somehow worse than last year when they put her ninth.<\/p>\n

The WNBA All-Star Game<\/a> vote counts fans at 50%, while players and media each receive a 25% share of the ballot.<\/p>\n

What a time to be alive:<\/p>\n

It’s pretty clear that the WNBA hates Caitlin Clark<\/p>\n

It’s just incredible. This really is one of the most fascinating things I’ve ever covered, and I’ve been doing this for more than a decade now.<\/p>\n

They really hate her, don’t they? REALLY hate her. It’s remarkable, especially given she has made these scornful women<\/a> richer than they ever thought possible. A rising tide lifts all boats, right?<\/p>\n

Wrong, apparently.<\/p>\n

There is no world that exists where Caitlin Clark is the 11th-best guard in the WNBA. It’s not possible.<\/p>\n

CAITLIN CLARK BREAKS WNBA ASSISTS RECORD TO A CHORUS OF BOOS AS VALKYRIES SPOIL THE MILESTONE<\/a><\/p>\n

I’ve watched the games<\/a>. I’ve suffered through them. Most of the league is awful. Angel Reese misses shots so easy at times, I think she’s faking it. I don’t mean to shoot a stray at Angel Reese, but seriously, some of her highlights are so bad, you’d think it’s AI.<\/p>\n

No, they don’t play the same position. I get it. My point is, though, that it just feels different when you watch Clark play than when you watch the rest of the league. It’s why she’s so polarizing. And by the way, she’s having a good season, especially given she missed most of last year with a dozen different injuries.<\/p>\n

She’s currently second in the WNBA in assists-per-game (8.2) and tied for fourth in points-per-game (21.2). I know very little about basketball, but those are two pretty important stats for a guard, right?<\/p>\n

Scoring the basketball and distributing it. Two things that are VITAL for a guard to be good at, and Clark is among the best in both categories.<\/p>\n

Yet, her peers voted her the 11th-best guard in the league? OK. Sure thing.<\/p>\n
