Caitlin Clark has been a major player in women’s basketball since her college days, and her debut campaign with the Indiana Fever has been no different. Despite having a fantastic all-around game, her shooting ability is what really makes her stand out. Even while she might not be the most effective player, her long-range shooting prowess is very astounding.

With his nearly superhuman ability to drain deep shots, Clark has demonstrated step-backs and side-steps way beyond the arc. Many questioned if she could play at this caliber in the WNBA, but she has definitely dispelled her doubters.

Clark’s long-range shooting has been so good that it has even surpassed some of the NBA’s best players in that area. She outperforms players like Klay Thompson, Luka Doncic, and Steph Curry.

In comparison, Curry only made 26% of his shots from 30 feet or beyond, while Clark is shooting about 35%. This presents a compelling argument for Clark even though it doesn’t prove that she is a superior shooter or that her range is greater than Curry’s. Although the size difference with the ball should be taken into account, Clark’s incredible accomplishment shouldn’t be diminished.

Fun fact: Caitlin Clark has been more accurate from 30+ feet this season than Steph Curry, Klay Thompson, and Luka Doncic#WNBA

REPORT: New York Knicks’ Star Forward OG Anunoby’s Initial Bidding Price Skyrockets Amid Contract Negotiations

The 2023-24 season has been a season of improvement for the Knicks. After years of failure to reach the playoffs, the NY franchise made back-to-back appearances in the postseason for the first time since 2013. In the off-season the team wants to move forward and the first step to that starts with OG Anunoby’s contract.

The Knicks forward is entering the final year of his contract with the Knicks which he signed with his previous team, the Raptors. Anunoby has a player option in his contract and he can easily ditch the $19 million and hit free agency because he can surely have a better offer elsewhere. To stave off that situation, the Knicks are ready to sign him to a long-term contract. According to Brian Windhorst, a $ 35 million per year deal can be the starting rate for the Briton’s services.

The fee was projected to be $30 million but now with free agency approaching the price jumped quite a bit. However, it won’t be a problem for the Knicks as they’re well below the second apron of luxury tax. With a cap space of -$65 million, even with Anunoby’s new deal, the Knicks can avoid any penalties according to the Collective Bargaining Agreement.

More so, the franchise values the Knicks’ input. In the absence of Julius Randle, Anunoby became a stalwart alongside Josh Hart in the frontcourt.

Looking Back at OG Anunoby’s Season

Since his move from the Raptors in December, Anunoby made himself at home in New York. Scoring 3 20+ point games in the second half of the regular season, Anunoby made himself aligned with the common goal of chasing the title.
