CLARK WAS EFFICIENT UNTIL...

#greenscreen #basketball #womeninsport #WNBA #caitlinclark Caitlin Clark did so well until roughly a minute left. While critics often scrutinize her animated reactions toward officials, the narrative that frustration beat the Fever would have been irrelevant if not for the under minute mark in the 4th quarter. Matter of fact, Clark bounced back well from a previous rough shooting night. She put up 21 points and 7 assists, shooting an efficient 50% (9-of-18) from the field. For the most part, she kept her composure in a physical game, avoiding any technical fouls that would trigger a suspension. She also kept her errors remarkably low with only 2 turnovers in 35 minutes. Caitlin did her job… and so did Kara Lawson by detailing how Caitlin Clark’s emotions got the best of her during the most important part of the basketball game when her team ws only down by three. That lack of emotional regulation made a challenging late game situation much more complex due to a variety of errors by Clark late in the game. Lawson went on to explain how that is also part of the learning curve for young players. Typically we do not see constructive criticism from certain networks on this Olayer, but it was refreshing to see an objective and educational stance by a great coach and color analyst.
