The WNBA's Coordinated Campaign Against Caitlin Clark Is Obvious

The article argues that there is an organized campaign in the WNBA against Caitlin Clark, focusing on multiple targeted moments during the league’s 30th Anniversary period and in-game incidents. It says Clark was left off the WNBA’s commemorative poster, calling the omission “unexplainable.” It also cites prior context from the article that Clark has become a major draw for the WNBA since arriving, while claiming that players and coaches respond with repeated targeting. As a recent example, the piece refers to Alyssa Thomas of the Phoenix Mercury making contact described as an attack, after which the article claims Clark was unable to play in her next game due to injury. The WNBA response, according to the article, was a retroactive flagrant foul assessment with a one-game suspension and a $1,000 fine, alongside removal of a meme after public backlash.
