Yeah shes a great shooter. If she got to shoot primarily catch and shoot 3s I bet she shoots upper 40s from 3. But shes routinely nailing logo 3s, off the dribble 3s, step backs etc. [Reply]

Yeah pushing around a smaller team that has no size. She's not gonna get away with bully ball in the pros. She has to develop an outside shot and post game. She'll probably fine as a defensive specialist. But very likely she goes from being hot shit to being just a player early on. [Reply]

Yup for the same reason Edey may not be a lottery pick despite dominating in college. Clark is a surefire WNBA superstar and I can't imagine who would think otherwise. [Reply]

Yep, she probably should stay in college and ride the endrsement gravy train as long as possible. If she is not a super star in the WNBA those deals will start drying up. [Reply]

Not a chance. WNBA needs her to have a green light and bring in the fans. The memo will go to whoever drafts her to let her run the show. She is and will be the biggest drawing card they will have. [Reply]

She was great against South Carolina who are a huge team and she went toe to toe with Kamilla Cardosa who is the best center in the game and will be drafted top four. So your notion isn't fair. She's Kawhi imo. Great both ways. [Reply]

The notion is fair and it is rational. Given what she could to for a teams brand and her college productivity she would be easily a top 3 pick. And yet shes barely projected in the top 10. I've looked at several mock drafts just to confirm and no one has her top 4 let alone top 5.
She is great on defense and as a rebounder. Which means scouts don't like her offensive game which goes against your idea that she's great both ways [Reply]
