Sheryl Swoopes Fired from WNBA Broadcast for HATING on Caitlin Clark—Stephen A. Smith EXPLODES!
In a recent WNBA broadcast, Sheryl Swoopes faced significant backlash after being removed from the commentary team due to her controversial comments about rising star Caitlin Clark. During the game, Swoopes expressed open criticism, claiming that Clark, at 25 years old, had an unfair advantage over younger players, despite the fact that Clark is actually 22. Furthermore, Swoopes exaggerated Clark’s shooting, inaccurately stating she takes 40 shots per game when the real number is closer to 19.
This isn’t the first time Swoopes has taken issue with Clark, often downplaying her accomplishments and questioning whether her skills would translate to the WNBA. Yet, Clark’s impressive rookie season, filled with record-breaking performances, has proven otherwise. Despite this, Swoopes has continued to support players like Diamond DeShields, who recently received racist threats after a flagrant foul against Clark.
Stephen A. Smith, a well-known sports commentator, publicly called out Swoopes, accusing her of bias and reminding her of Clark’s undeniable impact on the WNBA. Clark has not only driven up viewership and attendance but has also inspired the next generation of female athletes, making her a transformative figure in the league. Despite Swoopes’ criticism, it’s clear that Caitlin Clark is on a path to greatness, rewriting WNBA history and silencing her detractors with her performance on the court.
