Players like Cameron Brink of the Los Angeles Sparks, Angel Reese of the Chicago Sky, and, of course, Caitlin Clark of the Indiana Fever have made the 2024 rookie draft class the most talked-about in recent memory.

The Warriors’ senior forward Draymond Green was quick to offer Clark and the rookie class flowers for being a bright new light for the W, but Green thinks the WNBA should have taken advantage of the opportunity to promote A’ja Wilson, the center for the Las Vegas Aces, years ago.

Thаt Cаitlin Clаrk is аbsоlutely fаntаstic is nоt sоmething I аm clаiming. Green stаted оn his pоdcаst “The Drаymоnd Green Shоw” thаt if оne wаnted his оpiniоn, they cоuld аsk а’jа Wilsоn. When it cоmes tо the WNBа, а’jа Wilsоn is secоnd tо nоne. I dоn’t think it’s just Cаitlin Clаrk; а’jа Wilsоn is fаntаstic, tоо. аll I see when I think оf аmericа is а’jа Wilsоn. Frоm humble beginnings in а twо-pаrent hоme, this yоung Blаck girl оvercаme insurmоuntаble оbstаcles tо becоme the mоst legendаry plаyer in WNBа histоry. Tо be cоmpletely hоnest, I feel thаt wаy.

I believe A’ja Wilson has as much potential as any WNBA player, but you need to find a way to promote her. So, I’m not going to pretend that Caitlin Clark hasn’t contributed to the WNBA. Yes, she has, that is false. In other words, she will keep on. My presumption is incorrect; it’s not only her. You have A’Ja Wilson, who is as marketable as anybody, sitting on a WNBA gold mine that you haven’t yet discovered how to exploit. It’s not my fault. A’Ja has a lot of highly marketable qualities.After a stellar career at South Carolina, 27-year-old Wilson was the first overall pick by the Las Vegas Golden Knights in the 2018 WNBA Draft. After seven seasons and 195 games, her averages are 20.1 points, 8.8 rebounds, 2.1 assists, and 1.8 blocks on 49.1% shooting.

When it comes to rebounds per game, 2-point field goals, and 2-point field goal attempts, the 6-foot-4 big is now atop the league.

She was named WNBA Most Valuable Player twice and Defensive Player of the Year for two years in a row, in addition to winning Rookie of the Year in 2018.

The two-time WNBA champion and 2020 Olympic gold winner is displaying no signs of slowing down either, with an average of 26.5 points, 12.5 rebounds, 2.7 assists, and 2.8 blocks in six games this season on a 48.4 percent shooting clip.

Despite Wilsоn’s undeniаble brilliаnce, the impаct оf Clаrk hаs аttrаcted recоrd-breаking viewership аcrоss the cоuntry, even thоugh she jоined the leаgue six yeаrs аgо.

Things haven’t gone swimmingly for Clark since she joined the WNBA. The standout rookie, who went first overall to Indiana, is averaging 15.6 points, 35.7 percent from the field, 29.7 percent from outside the arc, 5.1 rebounds, and 6.4 assists per game.

Although her production has not been the only subject of the headlines surrounding her. Opposing veterans have roughed up Clark and questioned her value to the WNBA in online writings.

The league can applaud Clark and a number of other rookies for attracting new viewers, even though Green thinks the W blew a marketing chance with Wilson. And they’re still tuning in, whether to see Clark’s pinpoint shooting or Wilson’s dominance in the paint. Everyone benefits from that.
