Caitlin Clark has been on and off the news for her outstanding contribution to the sport since her days in Iowa. Her brilliance on the hardwood made many fans who followed her to the WNBA expect the point guard to achieve bigger feats. As the 2024 Paris Olympics is approaching, hoop enthusiasts expected her name to be in the women’s basketball team, but shockingly, she wouldn’t even be considered for it.

As Shams Charania of The Athletic reports, Clark will miss the opportunity to be among the talented women’s basketball athletes who will represent Team USA on the Olympic stage this year.

The star players who will reportedly be added to the roster are Liberty’s Sabrina Ionescu and Breanna Stewart, Aces’ teammates Kelsey Plum, Chelsea Gray, A’ja Wilson and Jackie Young, Mercury’s Diana Taurasi, Brittney Griner and Kahleah Copper, Lynx’s Napheesa Collier, Storm’s Jewell Loyd and Sun’s Alyssa Thomas.

Clark has just stepped foot in the league and still has a long way to go, whereas, the above-mentioned players have proved their worth consistently game after game.

Although things were not looking as smooth in the league for the 22-year-old guard, she finally delivered a stellar performance, leading the Fever to an 85-83 victory.

 

Caitlin Clark Shines to Achieve Historic Feat

Caitlin Clark came under scrutiny for failing to showcase her true potential in the league, but the rookie kept her calm and waited until Friday night to drop a massive attack on the Washington Mystics.

Clark shot seven buckets from the 3-point range etching her name alongside former WNBA player Crystal Robinson as the only rookies to have hit so many shots from downtown in their first season. That was not all, she even broke franchise champion Tamika Catchings’ 2002 record of threes in a game (6) to become the record holder for the Fever.

The 6-footer guard finished with 30 points, 8 rebounds and 6 assists in the win, joining hands with Sabrina Ionescu as the two players who had a 30-5-5 stat line in their rookie season.


Their third win would boost the Indiana Fever after losing 9 games this season on the flip side, the Mystics have still not tasted success in 11 games.

The 2024 NBA playoffs saw the breakthrough of a superstar in Minnesota Timberwolves’ Anthony Edwards. The 22-year-old guard took the postseason by storm after monstrous performances against the Suns and the Nuggets. Despite his brilliance, the Minnesota side failed to clinch an NBA Finals spot, falling to the Mavs in the WCF.

After the playoffs, Ant-Man took shots at multiple of his critics through an Adidas ad promoting his new shoe line. Among those who faced the blunt of the force of Anthony Edwards’ diss was rapper Cam’ron, who has now taken weapons in arms to counter. In a latest diss track, Cam’ron rhymed, “F**k wrong with Ant man? Gave him his props, homie got love from me. New commercial, y’all ain’t got love for me?”

In the commercial, Anthony Edwards was keeping receipts for his critics. Carmelo Anthony’s quote was mentioned in it, and so was Cam’ron, who said that Edwards is an All-Star but not a superstar yet. This led to the Timberwolves man saying, “F**k buddy.”

Adidas recently launched Anthony Edwards’ signature shoe line, AE 1, which has taken over the market with its slick design. But for Edwards to take a shot at Cam’ron was not something the rapper expected after giving him his props. He knows exactly who to blame for this situation between him and Edwards as he opens up about the ongoing fiasco.
