Sorry, Big3 followers … WNBA coach Stephanie West believes you’ll NOT see Caitlin Clark within the 3-on-3 league this yr — this regardless of the plain temptation of Ice Cube‘s $5 MILLION supply.
The Connecticut Solar head coach informed Harvey and Charles on “TMZ Live” on Wednesday she feels the legacy Clark can construct within the WNBA will finally trump the Big3’s money when it comes time to decide.
In fact, Clark has yet to mull everything — she mentioned final week she desires to attend till Iowa’s run within the NCAA event involves an finish earlier than she chooses her subsequent transfer.
However, White — who performed 5 seasons within the WNBA earlier than turning into Solar coach in 2023 — mentioned if she have been in Clark’s sneakers … the choice could be a comparatively simple one — albeit one her pockets would not love.
“I’m kind of a purist,” she mentioned. “I love the WNBA. I probably would’ve chosen the WNBA as well and then I would’ve kicked myself financially for the rest of my career.”
No matter what determination Clark makes … White says she’s been great for the ladies’s recreation and girls’s sports activities usually.
And, get this … if when the Indiana Fever take Clark with the No. 1 general decide within the WNBA Draft — guess who might be on the opposing sideline in her first recreation?? Yup, none aside from White and the Solar!
Good luck, Coach!!!
