All-Star Voting Backlash: Clark Gets the Cold Shoulder
The WNBA’s All-Star voting just threw gasoline on the fire. ESPN legend Linda Cohn didn’t hold back, calling the players’ ballot—where Caitlin Clark ranked 11th—"stupidity" straight up. Clark’s been lighting it up (20.3 PPG, 6.2 APG), but the league’s old guard ain’t bending. Meanwhile, Kelsey Plum, who’s averaging 19.8 PPG and 5.1 APG, got snubbed too. The message? The WNBA’s still playing politics, and the fans are pissed.
Aces on the Ropes, Fever Flex Without Clark
Las Vegas got handed their fifth straight L—this time to Indiana, 84-68—without A’ja Wilson (ankle). The Aces are 1-5 in their last six, and Angel Reese isn’t sweating it: "We’ll be stronger for it." Meanwhile, the Fever dropped 84 without Clark (back injury), proving they’re more than a one-woman show. Vegas is 3.5-point dogs tonight against Dallas, and the books are loving the under (152.5).
Plum’s Swimsuit Pic Steals the Show
Kelsey Plum’s black swimsuit photo broke the internet—because when you’re averaging 20 PPG and getting snubbed, you gotta remind the league what they’re missing. The ex-Huskies star’s been on fire, but the All-Star snub’s a joke. Plum’s response? Let the stats—and the pics—do the talking.
Sunday’s Best Bets: Fever vs. Aces, Wings Look Sharp
- Fever vs. Aces (7:30 PM ET): Vegas is 3.5-point dogs at home, but without Wilson, they’re vulnerable. Indiana’s bench stepped up last game (22 points), and the under (152.5) looks golden.
- Wings vs. Tempo: Dallas is rolling (6-2 in last 8) and 11-point favorites against Toronto. Arike Ogunbowale’s 24.1 PPG is carrying them, and the over (155.5) is tempting.
Bottom line: The WNBA’s got drama, snubs, and underdogs rising. Place your bets—just don’t expect the All-Star vote to make sense.
