🧨 “ONLY NINE?” – CAITLIN CLARK IS HIGHLY UNRATED BY HER COLLEAGUES, AND THE ENTIRE WNBA IS DIVIDED OVER IT!
👀 A curious opening – makes the reader unable to take their eyes off:
She brought the WNBA to millions of new audiences.
She broke records in revenue, television, social media—and made the world talk about the league like never before.
But in the eyes of her own teammates – Caitlin Clark is just… the 9th ranked defender?
The shocking internal poll results have just been revealed – and it’s sending the fan community into a frenzy:
Is this a fair assessment or hidden jealousy between generations?
🗳️ The brutal truth: Clark wasn’t in the top 5 guards voted by WNBA players
In an internal survey of WNBA players published by The Facility , Caitlin Clark – the hottest rookie in the league – ranked only 9th on the list of the best guards currently.
Fans were stunned.
Media was shocked.
And social media immediately exploded with controversy.
How could a rookie leading All-Star votes, breaking all engagement records, not even make it into the top 5 of his own position?
🧨 Angry fans: “This is jealousy disguised as professional criticism!”
As soon as the results were announced, hashtags like #DisrespectToClark , #WNBABias , and #LetHerPlay trended on Twitter/X and TikTok.
Some reactions from fans:
“Nobody said Clark had to be number one. But behind eight other people, when she’s pulling the whole league up? It doesn’t make sense.”
“Many veteran players are clearly uncomfortable with Caitlin’s spotlight.”
“They are punishing her for being loved.”
🤐 From inside the tournament: No one said it, but everyone felt it
Some anonymous sources from within the football teams said:
“There are many people in the locker room who feel that Clark has been over-hyped by the media. And that top 10 list is a way to ‘put her back in her place’.”
Which makes the question all the more poignant:
Is this a competency ranking – or an emotional response?
🧠 Is it fair to judge a rookie by the standards of a veteran superstar?
Many experts say: Caitlin Clark is stuck in the expectation paradox .
If she scores high: “She is selfish.”
If she passes the ball a lot: “She is not decisive enough.”
If she makes a mistake: “As expected, not up to par.”
If she plays well: “Who doesn’t play well with the media behind them.”
No rookie has ever faced the kind of media pressure and public scrutiny that Caitlin Clark has – and that may have made her a hidden target for being “taken down.”
💬 What does Caitlin Clark say about this?
As usual, Clark kept quiet.
She didn’t react to the poll results.
Instead, she continued to score points, lead plays, and win the hearts of millions of fans.
And perhaps, that was the only answer she needed.
🧠 Conclusion: Expert judgment – or jealous verdict?
There will always be people who don’t like you when you stand out.
But in professional sports, when jealousy disguises itself as objective judgment , it doesn’t just hurt the individual — it reflects on the instability within the entire league.
Caitlin Clark doesn’t have to be the best.
But if she’s the one who’s suffered the most – that’s a title no one should have.
