Taurasi’s comment not only felt weird for the moment but also misguided. We recently saw Emmanuel Acho face criticism for suggesting Reese’s personality invited negativity, even though the media, not her peers, labeled her the villain. Taurasi’s “wave bye-bye to your career” remark only seems to amplify that narrative.
Reese is a rising star soon to join the WNBA, which would only seem to benefit from the increased viewership that the women’s college game has seen in 2024. Perhaps Taurasi intended her remark to be a playful jab, mirroring Reese’s actions towards opponents, but is that really in her job description?
While personal preference towards Reese exists, taking a not-so-subtle shot at her after her emotional response to abuse undermines efforts to promote a supportive environment in women’s basketball.

I don't think the women of the WNBA understand just yet. Caitlin Clark doesn't need the WNBA, the WNBA needs. Caitlin Clark ❗❕❕❕❗

Women would rather destroy each other than watch another woman rise in the spotlight all by herself.

This is why WNBA is not that popular. A lot of the players come across as petty and irritable
-
Why is Diana Taurasi out of all people being jealous and petty for??? She been in the WNBA for what 20 years? She won championships in both college and WNBA and is known as a basketball great! She should be happy someone like Clark is going to the WNBA and bring more fans to watch their games to bring more attention to the league. It’s wild these WNBA players are showing everyone who they really are, jealous, petty, hypocritical and clueless athletes

Larry Bird didn't win the NCAA championship, he came out okay.

Taurasi has exposed herself to millions of people as a petty, immature, loser.

Women’s jealousy towards eachother will forever be their downfall

If I were her, I'd go play overseas. The WNBA would be crying. They'd be begging her to come back.

Most people cannot even name a WNBA player, but everyone knows who Caitlyn Clark is.

It's called "jealousy"

I'm a man ,I tell you this. The only reason why I will watch the WNBA is to see what Catlin C. does.

My African mom who lives in London has heard of Carlin Clark and has seen a couple highlights. They’re really stopping themselves from getting a real bag over some jealousy. Sad.

Let’s be so proud of men constant support and appreciation for Caitlin Clark - so great
-
These former and current WNBA players are JEALOUS of Catlin Clarks notoriety, fame and the money she is making.

They're upset because they're getting older and are jealous of a new wave of terrific young players. Not a very becoming look.

Cant figure out why WNBA players would hate a likeable straight white girl who focuses on playing basketball and entertaining fans instead of preaching identity politics…
