LeBron James, as the leader that he is in the basketball community, recently spoke out on the numerous controversies surrounding Caitlin Clark, asking observers not to overwhelm her.
A defense that does not pass muster with some…
LeBron James is much more than a great basketball player, he is also a great leader for a part of American society.
While athletes have often been confined to exploits on the field, the King has decided to emancipate himself and express himself on all the subjects that are close to his heart, even the most thorny on a social or political level.
And in this WNBA season, the No. 23 of the Lakers necessarily took a close look at the performances of Caitlin Clark.
After a stormy start, he notably asked the spectators not to insult her and not to put her at the heart of all the debates, even though she is only a young woman in a world of adults.
An outing that did not go down well with some, as evidenced by the reaction of the controversial Umar Johnson.
LeBron James massacred for his support of Caitlin Clark
LeBron James, in the face of the Caitlin Clark controversy, told the black women who make up the league to sit back and relax, because Clark would be the reason the WNBA is getting this attention.
She’s the reason there’s more money, more fans in the stands. I don’t agree with him! But he doesn’t see that, thanks to Angel Reese, tickets sold for Chicago matches have quadrupled?!
Why isn’t anyone talking about the Angel Reese effect?!
People aren’t interested in her because of Caitlin Clark, that’s not true.
People love her for who she is! And as far as I know, she was the one who beat Iowa two years ago for the NCAA title!
The reason the media isn’t talking about her is because they can’t forgive her for beating Clark in that final. She derailed the hype train.
But that year, the refs robbed South Carolina in the semifinal. Hold up ! If a player breathed too hard on Clark, it was a foul.
Conversely, USC received no whistle under the other basket.
After this flight, everyone thought that Caitlin Clark would quietly win a title.
But no, Reese and LSU stepped in between. America does not forgive them.
For the famous Umar Johnson, who is for the emancipation of the African-American community, LeBron James’ attitude towards Caitlin Clark can be taken as a betrayal.
The King only highlighted CC’s contribution to the WNBA, and not that of Angel Reese, who is just as important in the revolution that is taking place.
LeBron James wanted to defend Caitlin Clark against numerous attacks, which earned him criticism. Indeed, Umar Johnson and others would have liked him to be also involved in talking about Angel Reese.
