Diana Taurasi sparked online reactions after news of Caitlin Clark’s debut in the WNBA.

Clark, the No. 1 pick in the WNBA draft, had a rough start to her WNBA career, shooting 30% and committing 13 turnovers in her first two games.

Taurasi, a veteran player, had previously commented that Clark would face a “reality check” playing against professional women, which some interpreted as criticism. However, Taurasi clarified that she was simply pointing out the natural adjustment period rookies face. Despite this, Taurasi’s comments sparked a heated debate online, with some defending her and others accusing her of being anti-Clark. Clark’s performance has been under scrutiny, with some questioning her ability to translate her college success to the WNBA level.

The situation has highlighted the challenges rookies face in the WNBA and the need for patience and understanding.
