A video of the same was posted on X by YouTuber Nicole’s View. The video listed the differences in the conference despite both stars having amassed the same respect in their NCAA career. It also brought forth the point that since both stars committed, the tickets for the Fever and the Sky games have skyrocketed. Hence, Reese and Clark are doing somewhat similar service for the WNBA.
“Caitlin is the #1 pick and her team is banking on her. Chicago Sky organization probably doesn’t really care about the team in general,” one user commented. The fan pointed out the fact that Clark was the top pick in this year’s WNBA draft. And given her NCAA popularity the Fever is banking on her to rebuild the team. The fan was also quick to express that the Chicago team doesn’t care about their players.

Notably, Reese finished as one of the best players for the Louisiana State University Lady Tigers. She had taken on the onus of bringing her team glory in 2022-23 season.
