The US women’s basketball selection committee released an official statement in June, a few days after the media reported that they had left the most dynamic and popular female athlete in the world today, Caitlin Clark, from the Olympic roster.
The league broke the news after Caitlin Clark drained seven 3-point shots, scored 30 points, led in assists, and filled the 20,000-seat arena in Washington, DC, the night before the news broke. Clark put in the clinic. No problem.
Clark broke all attendance records in the first half of the season – No Matter.
Clark leads the league in 3-point shooting when selected for Olympic team – No problem.
Clark brought MILLIONS of new fans to the league for the first time – No problem.
Clark is the funnest basketball player right now – No problem.
This is not enough to anger, this jealous woman to put Clark on the Olympic team where he belongs.
The world is waiting for Caitlin Clark to play in the Paris Olympics, the WNBA brass is giving the USA and the world the middle finger.
Caitlin Clark, who owns all major college scoring records in history and led the NCAA in assists this year, was not selected for the Olympic team.
The five women excluded from the 2024 Olympics are Seimone Augustus, Dawn Staley (centre), Jennifer Rizzotti, Delisha Milton-Jones, Bethany Donaphin and angry Olympic women’s coach Cheryl Reeve.
The WNBA brass obviously hates the fans. He finds Caitlin Clark fans ugly and unacceptable. And he decided to punish all of America for loving Caitlin.
The WNBA has not commented on the decision or defended the league’s most popular player.
The woman couldn’t publicly admit why she banned Caitlin from the Olympics. First, they emphasize that Caitlin lacks the experience and talent of other women.
Then, the lie quickly became apparent. When the decision is made:
- Caitlin Clark leads the league in 3-point shooting.
- Caitlin Clark is in the top 8 in the league in scoring.
- Caitlin Clark is in the top 3 in the league in assists.
Caitlin Clark’s stats were better than any other woman selected for the team.
Clark is one of only three WNBA players to rank in the top 20 in points, rebounds, assists, steals, and blocks per game.
Catilin Clark’s stats now put her at the top of every guard selected to the Olympic team.
And, Caitlin Clark is the 4th most popular athlete – male or female – in the world today behind only LeBron James, Tiger Woods, and Steph Curry.

On the first day of women’s basketball at the Olympics, the US women’s team drew the smallest crowd by a wide margin. The US women led by angry Caitlin-heart coach Cheryl Reeve only had 13,500 fans at the game.
The US women’s basketball team drew the smallest crowd among its opening games at the Olympics. Who could see this coming after USA Basketball decided not to bring Caitlin Clark to Paris?

Teams are struggling to sell tickets for Sunday’s games. Without Caitlin Clark it is not so easy to fill the seat.
They should even include “special offers” to sell seats.
Then on Wednesday the US team only drew 12,437 fans. This is another shame.
The US women’s basketball league may be the most popular game at this year’s Olympics. But the angry woman couldn’t shake her pride.
So instead of filling the stadium with Caitlin Clark – they go back to 12,000 fans every game.
That’s what happens when you hate your fans. He also starts rejecting you.
Women’s basketball also lost TENS OF BILLIONS in revenue by blocking Caitlin from the game. What a loss.
What a massive failure.
