Caitlin Clark is officially the only player in WNBA history to record multiple games with over 20 points and 10 assists. She has shattered expectations by reaching an all-time record of 12 games hitting those marks, and she accomplished this incredible milestone in just 57 career games
And also leads the league in turnovers and sits lower in the standings than Angel Reese and the Dream.

5.3 vs 5.0. 😱😱😱😱

You're going off a 3 and 4 game sample size.
Lil' fella knows the window is closing as CC is getting her mojo back, whilst Angel keeps dribbling the ball off her leg and bricking layups. Let him have May.

I hope for the sake of the WNBA that Clark gets her mojo back. Would hate to see Angel get another championship before her.

You think if Clark went 1v1000 against 1000 Reeses she would win?

She has a long road ahead of her to continue to lead the league, but I have faith she will be up to the challenge.
I doubt she has an 8 turnover game again this season. I bet she regresses back to her average of around 3 by the all star break.

I think White is a good coach taking the blame for CC and KMs poor early shooting. And unless she's signing off on roster moves, she's not the one that didn't go out a proper backup for Boston.

If Clark/KM even shoot 40% they could be 4-0 right now and no one would give one shid about SW.

Biggest criticism is that white is not building an offensive flow that fully embraces CC’s abilities. White - up until this year - has prioritized veteran players and limiting CC’s creativity. I see a little more looseness with CC’s play so far this year but there’s been a butting of heads since CC arrived

You should have more faith in her.

Unless you are banking on them cutting her minutes, which you might be right about.

She got that team to massively overachieve last season given injuries etc.

I'm gonna go ahead and give her the benefit of a doubt.

Seems like a good coach to me.

Part of that is Kelsey Mitchell and being tied to her.

Kelsey has never met a ball she would pass.

75% of the time KM gets the ball she holds on to it too long and has to put up a shot when she could have easily passed it off for a better look.
And she hardly ever passes it back to CC22 when she does give it up.

KM averaging 1.5 assists per game is crazy.
