With millions of fans tracking her every move since joining the WNBA as the first overall pick in the draft last month, Caitlin Clark is a generational talent that has the potential to elevate the league to new heights.

She also has a large following of detractors because when you’re exceptional at something and attract a lot of attention for it, depressed people online often take offense and will do and say anything to bring you down.

LeBron James, who is well aware of this, sent a message to Clark and others who were attacking her.

The Los Angeles Lakers star made it clear Caitlin Clark is the driving force behind the records being set across the WNBA.

“The one thing that I love that she is bringing to her sport: more people want to watch, more people want to tune in.” LeBron said to co-host JJ Reddick on the “Mind the Game” podcast. “Don’t get it twisted, don’t get it [expletive] up: Caitlin Clark is the reason why a lot of great things are going to happen for the WNBA.”

LeBron then shelled out some much-needed advice, which included her keeping her mouth shut.

“My advice to Caitlin, and my advice to anyone that comes in with this level of notoriety, out-of-this-world expectation, whatever the case may be, be a horse, man. The Kentucky Derby. Put your blinders on, go to work, show up to work, punch your clock in, prepare yourself, work on your game, work on your craft.

“Kind of keep your mouth shut and just learn from the vets. When they ask, voice your opinion if they want your opinion early because everybody is looking for you to say anything, and they’re gonna splice it and cut it and make it a negative thing.”

James, who was just out of high school, was hailed by many as the second coming of Michael Jordan when he joined the NBA as the first overall pick in the 2003 NBA draft. Under such pressure, most players would have given up, but LeBron was up to the challenge and went on to become one of the all-time greats.

Similar excitement surrounds Caitlin Clark, but instead of being compared to previous greats, she is virtually being put in a class by herself.

Since many believe Caitlin Clark has the talent to propel the WNBA to new heights, she is entering the league without being compared to anyone.

Caitlin Clark was an obvious choice at No. 1 overall for the Fever after leading Iowa to the National Championship Game in back-to-back seasons and winning two National Player of the Year awards in her collegiate career.

Through her first four WNBA games, all eyes have been on Clark, and she has been solid, averaging 17.0 points, 5.5 assists, and 4.0 rebounds per game.

However, the team is still 0-4 but has shown promise in the last two contests, where they fought hard to the end instead of being blown out like they were in the first two games.

VIDEO: Some Dude Just Dropped The Cold Hard Truth On Why All Of These NFL Prospects Are “Dating White Women”

Unless this is your first day in America, then you know race relations in this country dominate just everything, and that includes NBA and NFL drafts.

During the most recent NFL Draft in Detroit, social media was buzzing as athletes showed up to the red carpet event with their girlfriends and family. Many of the incoming NFL rookies were African-American and were spotted with white women, which has become the usual theme for years.

The same thing happens with the NBA Draft.

This year, the discourse on the NFL Draft and NBA Draft has gotten even louder as African-American women openly pondered why so many of the players never have a partner that is the same race as them.

One guy on TikTok decided to answer that question by revealing that the vast majority of his division-1 friends in college or headed to the league are dating or married to white women and explained why.

He stated that some of them had told him that their white girlfriend looked up to Taylor Swift while their girlfriend looked up to Megan The Stallion. He then states the guy asks how many white women he has seen doing the Megan Thee Stallion challenge as opposed to Black women.

He then dove into another story of a friend who relayed that his Black girlfriend started to request money from him as soon as she found out about his NIL money. She wanted her hair and nails done. He then added that the Black women would be upset if they went to places like Chipotle, and she demanded steak houses.

Commissioner Roger Goodell took the stage Thursday for the first round of the 2024 NFL Draft in Detroit, and many players showed up, ready to hear their names called.

Many women online noticed that some players in the NFL Draft who were Black did not have the same color girlfriend on their arm.

Some of those players included Caleb Williams, who hit the red carpet at the 2024 NFL Draft in Detroit with girlfriend Alina Thyregod by his side.

Washington wide receiver Rome Odunze showed up with girlfriend Alannah Davidson.

Penn State left tackle Olu Fashanu had his girlfriend blocked by his mom from interacting with him after he was selected.

Former NFL running back LeSean McCoy is getting dragged online for telling on NBA legend and Hall of Famer Dikembe Mutombo as he suggested the 57-year-old was stepping out on his wife around eight years ago.

Mutombo, an eight-time All-Star who played for 18 seasons, met his wife Rose in 1995 and married her shortly after.

Speaking on his ‘25/10Show’ podcast, McCoy recalled a story about meeting a female he described as a “baddie” in Atlanta who told him she was seeing the four-time Defensive Player of the Year, who would take her on trips to France.

He said: “She told me he not that type of dude, you know he take good care of me…He don’t take me shopping, he takes me to France. I was like who is the dude? Guess what she said his name was? Dikembe Mutombo. I was like you’re taking him over me? But I get it, yeah he’s taking you shopping from PJ to France, I said babe, keep him.”

Fans Rip LeSean McCoy For Mentioning Mutombo’s Name

Fans did not appreciate Shady namedropping Mutombo, especially given that the former NBA center has been happily married for nearly 30 years.

“1. This doesn’t violate bro code cuss that’s not his bro. 2. He violated man code cuss name dropping when the situation could hurt my home is nasty. 3. It’s nasty cuss he ain’t have to say a name at all,” one wrote.

“D. Jack told him early like bro you a house wrecker. He thought he was gon get cool points for finishing the story lmao,” another pointed out.

“you must not know his actual nickname is Shady McCoy…he will name-drop in a minute,” a third suggested.

Married or not, that’s some poor form from Shady.
