To be honest, Im not really on social media.
I dont read that, Clark said.This is my job.
My job is to compete and play basketball every single day.
My job is just to continue to show up and help this team get better.
Were fighting for our first win.
Thats my main focus.
Reese said the Skys latest win wasnt because of one player on our charter flight.
No less than Lakers starLeBron Jameshas chimed in to defend Clark.
Do yall know what that means?
That means theyre not that good, he said.
Im rooting for Caitlin because Ive been in that seat before.
Ive walked that road before.
I hope she kills.
I hope Aliyah Boston does amazing.
I hope they do great.
The one thing that I love that shes bringing to her sport more people want to watch.
More people want to tune in.
I saw, for the first time, they had a chartered plane.
For the first time in their league history, they flew private.
That should be celebrated in its own right.
Her Fever jersey also set records on Fanatics shortly after she was drafted.
