The WNBA’s Goose Is Laying Golden Eggs and They’re Beating It With a Bat – RedState
Caitlin Clark was not supposed to save the WNBA. But here we are. The second -year phenomenon of Iowa has become the league rescue buoy, and they put it in the ground like a rented mule. This week, she underwent a groin injury on a game devoid of meaning with the game already in hand, 12 seconds on the clock. Why was she still on the ground? Best question: why is it dealt with like any other jersey number instead of the reason why someone is attentive?
She is not only a basketball player. It is the economy. It is the note of notes. It is the closed window crowds. This is the reason why ESPN, ABC and even the White House began to pretend to worry about women’s basketball. And yet, the WNBA, in all its self -destructive wisdom, let her hack, struck and now bench – because they do not know how to protect their greatest asset.

It was not a ref. He was not a coach. It was Sophie Cunningham who finally said: enough. She checked JAPY Sheldon from Connecticut as if it was match 7 of the NHL final – made the fine, took the blow and won respect. You don’t have to love it. You just need to admit that it worked. Someone had to protect the only player in the league who really brings money through the door.
Does this help be a multi-sport athlete?
Ask Sophie Cunningham, who has not only helped her secondary school basketball team win three consecutive state titles, but also played volleyball and kicked the school’s football team.#IndianaFeverbasketball pic.twitter.com/vjxw6vkgdm– Scott Young 🏈 (@ coachyoung15) June 19, 2025
Cunningham does the work of the League for this – and she knows it. It has become de facto efficiency of a broken system where star players are mutilated in broad daylight while referees have shrugged and spying like trained seals.

Let the act fall. The so-called “physical game” does not concern tenacity. This is envy. These are players and coaches who want the spotlight that Clark commands, the approvals she draws and the crowd she attracts. So they decided to try the humble – injuring her.
But here is the friction: if Clark goes down, the whole card house goes with her. Ticket of ticket prices. TV notes fall. Merch Sales Flatline. It is not only his future at stake – it’s the league.
Do you think that ABC negotiations next season will be fine if Clark is sitting in street clothes for half the season? Do you think Nike will cough money in money if their marquee name is wrapped in ice packs on the bench? Do you think fans will continue to buy seats that are too expensive to see bench players shoot bricks?
Michael Jordan’s agent David Falk, urges Caitlin Clark to get involved in the negotiations of the WNBA CBA

Be real. Each elbow launched on Caitlin Clark is another rinsed dollar from the already shallow pocket of the WNBA.
It is not a special treatment. This is common sense. You do not let your MVP take cheap photos in time of waste. You do not let your biggest print explode by jealous players. You do not leave the only player that the whole league rolls on Limp out of the field, because a hacking had to make a statement.
And if the WNBA does not wake up before the next CBA, the players who are aiming for it will know what the real pain looks like – when there is no more money to make, there are no more fans and there is no longer a future to negotiate.
Clark is not the problem. It is the miracle. But the miracles do not last if you trample them in hard wood every two evenings. Sophie Cunningham understands it. Maybe the rest of the league will catch up – before it is too late.
