Caitlin Clark’s Unexpected Admission About WNBA Rookie Season...Decoding the secrets of the match is gradually revealed/dn

Indiana Fever superstar Caitlin Clark broke more than a few records during what turned out to be a sensational rookie campaign. There was perhaps none more impressive than the fact that she set the all-time WNBA record for the most assists in a single season — not only for a rookie but for all players regardless of tenure. In a recent “60 Minutes” interview, Clark was asked what was her signature moment of this iconic campaign. The 22-year-old gave an unexpected answer. “I remember we were in New York and Jonquel Jones set a good screen on me,” she said. “I actually popped my eardrum just on a screen. … it was a really good screen by JJ.”

As Clark said, this incident just speaks volumes of the physicality in the WNBA. What she didn’t say, though, is how her opponents seem to play a more physical game whenever they face her. To a certain extent, this speaks volumes of the respect they have for her game in that they will do anything and everything they can to stop her from doing her thing on the basketball court. It still hurts a lot, though.
