What a moronic take. Today must be amateur day. Clark is liked because she's a generational talent and is fun to watch. Her passing game is something never before seen in the womens game. Period. Cunningham is now liked because she took up for her last year. Period. She's been in the league forever, so it didn't just take off after several years because of looks. Some hate Clark because she's good and they hate it that she's good because they don't like her for an obvious reason that I won't go into.
You are correct and we ALL see it.

You are deluded if you don’t believe that looks play a HUGE part in Cunningham’s outsized popularity level. And also if you believe those two would be just as popular without the straight white midwestern all american girls image.

You’re right that Clark is a great player. But she certainly ain’t as good as Aja Wilson. Wilson is about to win her record 5th MVP and will likely one day be remembered as the greatest player ever. If it were just about merit, she’d easily be the most famous player in the word. But instead Clark is far more famous, gets far more media coverage, and is paid WAY more endorsement money than Wilson.

Why do you suppose that is?
You are correct that A Wilson is a great player. so is Clark.
Clark and Cunningham are famous because they are fan favorites. And they are good ball players.
Maybe A Wilson is in her own right but these Fever players aren’t racist. To me the obvious envy and jealousy of their success is being rewarded by questionable calls and rough play by players who can’t do what Clark does at least. Bottom Line. Success breeds success and they have accomplished that.

The WNBA could've stopped so much of the negative attention weeks/months ago. All they need to do is what women's tennis, the IOC and the NCAA have done. But they haven't or won't.

Any publicity is evidently good publicity.
