WNBA Legend Sheryl Swoopes Has Changed Her Mind On Caitlin Clark
WNBA legend Sheryl Swoopes has been labeled as a huge Caitlin Clark hater due to her previous comments about the Indiana Fever star. Recently, however, she had a rather unexpected take about the 23-year-old playmaker. Swoopes has received plenty of backlash in the past for seemingly downplaying Clark’s impact on the Fever and the WNBA. Back in August 2024, she caught flak after she refused to give Clark credit for Indiana’s rise. The four-time WNBA champion was also criticized after defending former Chicago Sky guard Diamond DeShields for her cheap shot at Clark during a game. Interestingly, in a recent interview with ESPN posted on TikTok, Swoopes shared rare praise for Clark. Aside from highlighting how the addition of DeWanna Bonner, Natasha Howard and several others, as well as
the continued improvement of Aliyah Boston and return of Kelsey Mitchell, elevated the Fever to potential championship contenders, Swoopes also took notice of Clark’s offseason. “Can we talk about Kelsey Mitchell, who is just a walking bucket? How much stronger Caitlin got in the offseason, you know she was in the gym working on her game,” Swoopes stated. “This Indiana Fever team, they have put the pieces together in this offseason, and I’m excited to see what they’re going to do.”
For what it’s worth, several fans couldn’t help but notice the change in Sheryl Swoopes’ stance about Caitlin Clark, taking to the comment section of ESPNW’s post to chime in.
