That's why I wasn't upset with what Diana Taurasi said. When you get to the professional level, some learning adjustments will be needed in any sport. I am pretty sure when CC started her college career she had to adjust to that level. I feel she will in this level also.
Clark also has one of the biggest targets on her back that any athlete or spectator has ever seen at any level in any sport. Shaq is the only other comparison off the top of my head. Every other team will pretty much ice her on defense and allow her teammates to score at will. It will be a great opportunity for her to become a great passer, because her opponents are going to try to hold her to 0 FG attempts every night. She is certainly hated by her peers.
20 points, Boston has 6 pts, CC has a weak tired team who stand around. Cc has to support this rag tag team.
Much respect for mentioning she would have adjusted to college... How many can say they heard of her after her 1st college season?
Yet people expect her to be great after her 1st pro game 😂 there's levels and she has a whole career just starting.
@@lanceraub-jq8ygGet over yourself. These grown women aren’t going to roll over and take it in the !!! for your girl. If that’s hate, ok.
@@lanceraub-jq8yg No that would be Angel Reese. Head on over to her page and see how many people are against her.
Thomas and Bonner are a power couple, literally
Bonner? Barely know her
Kudos to the rookies for coming in after a long season with no breaks.

Don't sleep on the Connecticut Sun!
They could be the team that could prevent a WNBA Finals rematch between the "Superteams" the New York Liberty and the Las Vegas Aces.
5:03 could care less about the TO's or the inefficiency. CC cannot allow herself to be caught asleep on defense like this. To be a star in this league you gotta play both ends.
That was crazy, lol. She's definitely used to being in college and playing one way.
She didn't play defense in college either
@@thelearner55 I saw some of her defensive attitudes that with Auriemma or Staley, the bench would have been the intermediate stop on the way to the locker rooms
She will never play defense. The other team probably scored 20 pts off of her turnover alone 😂
Steph Curry doesn't play defense 😆
Connecticut, as expected, a defensive beast 😤👏
Yea they are crazy good at defense. The fever were the Washington wizards last year so.. lol
Fever was outmatched , out disciplined, out hustled
Explains why they had two first round picks who were both leading their squads in the final four this year. They just need to survive the initial Clark effects and they’ll be okay
congrats DB on #5 all time!!
I think early on clark should focus on swinging the ball and establishing a pick and roll to herself more open shots
She'll be fine!
Aliyah Boston isn't a pick and roll player she a get on the block get it down low big so they have to figure out how to play. suceess is gonna take a minute for them. the WNBA is talented and as a someone that watches i been saying this 😂😂

Man, WNBA players are big and strong. Won't be easy for the slender Clark.
Tough first game for Clark. She’ll bounce back
Clark coming into the wnba still breaking records. Most turnovers in a debut with 10 😂😂 20 points 10 turnovers that’s a double double 🎉🥳
Caitlin Clark 32:27 Mins: 20Pts: 5FGM: 15FGA: 33.3%FG% top scorer😮
growing pains. Its alright. Just shrug it off and move on
Caytlyb clark made history by a rookie with a double double with her 10 turnovers
facts i want her to succeed but the fake fans got me needing to prove a point.. i watch WNBA she is going to have a hard time this year. the WNBA had a lot of talent and tough girls
Why isn't kelsey Mitchell getting more pt? She's better dribbler and scorer than Clark. She's 3rd leading scorer all time in women's college I believe. Her and Boston should be Indiana #1 and 2 options. And Clark 3rd. That is coach is concerned about winning vs crowd pleasing
@@taraatkins4823 facts i can tell you watch WNBA forreal
@@taraatkins4823It's a business 1st
@@taraatkins4823 She was injured, ankle, her minutes are limited. Which is the right decision, it's early in the season and the Fever will need her as healthy as possible all season long.
Wow this is much better than I remember the wnba. I watched the San Jose Lasers play in 1997 (?) and it was like watching a Junior High School basketball game. What I see here is a huge improvement.
This is an improvement? Nearly every shot was a layup they can't score unless they go off the glass. And don't even talk about the airball 3's. This is just as trash as I remember.
@@DaxSports1There were 17 3 pointers made this game. Both teams shot over 40% from 3 so not sure what you're talking about. Also these are both teams with big posts, so there are gonna be more layups. The Aces had an AWFUL game from 3 yesterday and there were still 21 made 3s between them and the Mercury. For reference, the Knicks vs Pacers game, which is a longer game and far more high-scoring had 24 made 3s.
@@DaxSports1no one is forcing you to watch the game. Nba is playing right now too you know. Go away and leave these professionals alone to do their jobs.
20 points on her professional debut is an excellent start for CC. Since people want to send me abuse, Larry Bird also had 10 turnovers in 1979 and he went on to be one of the greatest. CC is already the greatest NCAA player male or female, she’ll be fine at home with the fans behind her and with the pressure off now she’s made her debut. Sun look impressive, that Thomas player looked really good. Also worth a mention the arena was sold out because oh Clark. In my country we had live blogs on all our major news sites, on and off the court the Clark effect is in full effect.
Lot of jealousy around CC...already. Patriarchy likes to PIT womyn against womyn. She seems to NOT listen to that stuff. That will help her. I see a lot of people pointing OUT her "negatives" here...showing this misogyny. Like you said, Larry Bird had 10 turnovers in 1979. I will still root CC on...she has done a LOT for basketball and a lot to womyn's basketball. Brought a lot of attention to other players too, as she is a team player. Way to stand up for HER
Name another person who is the greatest in their respective sport to never win a championship?

Props to Caitlan for equalling suns team history attendance in one game. She is KING, Goat and she doesn't travel, flop or charge or whine like Lechina has made a career doing
The great white hope made history in turnovers.

Give Caitlin and Boston some time, they will mature and The Fever will start winning more and more.
Both ladies are new, Boston just one year in, CC22 first year.

Yea yea yea
Boston is already mature. She’s a beast on the court.
the whole team needs to click. not just CC.
CC isn’t the team. She’s out there for threes but no one wants to admit that her making threes isn’t going to win the game. Defense wins games. Cc scored 40 points in college only to lose then as well.
Does anyone know why this game and the aces game last night aren’t a part of the league pass?
Can’t wait to see DT vs CC
We all knew this would happen to CC, So let’s talk about Alyssa Thomas triple double. WOW, she showed up and showed out and got the WIN. Personally I like talking about WINNERS AND NOT losers. 😀

Welcome to the WNBA, Caitlin Clark.🏀
Thanks for posting highlights 👍.
This Indiana team needs a major adjustment. Three games are enough to realize how to win games with these new talents...
10 TO is insane
I had to go and follow that Carrington girl! This year my first time watching the W. I’m a Caitlin fan and a fan of all these rookies but the way she locked up Caitlin had me lit. And she look good doing it
My first wnba highlight I watched fully. Subscribed ✅
Looking forward to seeing Angel Reese, Cardoso, Diana Taurasi (I heard she’s the GOAT), Aja, shoot Skylar Diggens (I forgot all about her 🤦🏾♂️). Yea man, I’m excited for this season. First time watching. I’ve heard about this league…now I’m watching 👀🎥🤳🏾
I watched the mercury vs aces game yesterday and Wilson, Plum and Taurasi were on FIRE
Yeah, a lot of people were saying these WNBA players are big and Caitlin looked small.
This is the worst game of Caitlyn Clark i've watched so far with her commiting 10 TOs. But with 20 pts in just her 1st game with the pros, it still looks amazing to me.. ❤from🇵🇭
Damn 10 TO...Common girl!
Would say she's a common girl...
this is an indiana fever team that are playing together for the first time in the wnba,it is going to take some time for them to gel and they will get better playing as a team in due time.this first game of the season the fever was playing good basketball for the first few minutes of the first quater and then the experience of the suns took over.boston did not play that well ,she only had four points in 29 minutes she has to play better than this if the fever is going to win games.
Clark is already sizzling in her first game despite the TO's. She'll only get better.
Sizzling? She was as hot as an igloo in this game . No defensive presence and 11 turnovers?
@@Meh4991z Defensive presence? 😂 if that's what you expected here then you are a fool.
@@Meh4991z😂😂😂
I wanna see Cardoso, Reese and CC play in one floor soon
Diana Taurasi wasn't wrong.
After one game? Don't be dense
@@JasonWilliams-um2nt yes, after one game... you guys can't call her goat and then make excuses. DT nor Swoopes was wrong that their is a transition at first. There were those who were rookies before her that had better 1st season games.
20 points after one is still amazing...Jordan scored 16 points in his first game
@@Lorenzojones46Did Jordan have 10 turnovers?
@@Lorenzojones46 not amazing for a supposed goat. how many shots did it take to get those points? anyone know the FG%?
😮 Bonner looks like KD with that mid range
"On May 20, 2018, in her WNBA career debut, A'ja Wilson scored 14 points along with 10 rebounds in a 101-65 loss to the Connecticut Sun." - Wikipedia
But Aja wasn't supposed to be the GOAT 🙂
Caitlyn Double Double was off points and TURNOVERS 😂
She will be better next game ❤
You left out the 10 turnovers part. Oh wait…
And here y’all go 🤦🏾♂️. You CC fans are so delusional and annoying af. Y’all got a lot to learn and will be in for a rude awakening
Scoring those points were not an easy feat for a debut.
Caitlyn is still pretty awesome!
Someone had a TRIPLE DOUBLE!!!
I hope it gets at least a footnote...
Alyssa Thomas AT
☀️ The world got to see how damn tough Sun are.
😬 I want Alyssa Thomas to win MVP SO BAD.
🪴 CC will grow but folks owe Swoopes and DT apologies. 😌
🤔 Indy’s defense will determine if they make the playoffs or not.
😇 Welcome back Bri Jones.
👍👍 DiJonai and Harris got bigger roles.
Yea Thomas is mega underrated and the sun's defense is top tier. Let's not forget the fever are the Washington wizards of the WNBA lol
never got anything going in that game. they never had a chance
This is my first time watching Caitlin play...not too bad. Her awareness on defense needs major work tho. I notice she has a habit of turning her back and taking her eyes off her opponent quite often. As well as not hustling back on D after a turnover. But her offense is pretty fire. She's like that one player you choose to be on your team in a pickup game to score all the points but be mad cuz they can't play D 😂
Hmmm seems like CC found it tough. Not in control, waiting a lot, not fast back to defend. Doesn’t seem a PG but her shot release is good, sure, like the guys.
You do realize the fever are the Washington wizards if the NBA right? The sun's are literally the best women's defensive team
Some of yall acting like in her first game, CC was playing South Dakota State, Connecticut was a title contender last... she will be fine... adjustment period still in effect... btw I ain't a CC fangirl... I'm a W fangirl... go gamecocks
Carrington the best rookie!❤
Caitlin Clark = 🐐 we here love you 22
7:53 Meme worthy
Go Fever! Go Caitlin! ❤👩🏀 #wnba #fever #caitlinclark #whitemamba
With a big crowd actually at the game, love the cheers and noise that just wasn't there until now! Now it feels like a game! Not boring...
The Fever coach have her work cut out for her... it's just too many things to focus on.They 'll get it together eventually.
The people i saw in the comments on another video were saying Indiana’s coach should be fired. MFs really don’t know basketball.
Exactly everything that coach pointed out about her bad habits showed in this highlights
No one has taught Boston BASIC post defense. She's on her toes, giving room, tiptoeing backwards...The exact OPPOSITE of how you're supposed to do it! Should be heavy or your feet, giving no room, pushing forwards in the gaps. Terrible coaching!
@_________________________7050 but was the rookie of year last season unlike the hype machine who looks lost of defense
Goes to show how awful the league must be. Surely you agree with me after seeing her post defense - no one has coached her@@oneone3983
so people watched these highlights more than the champions lol and still people wanna act like this one girl isnt all that
Clark gonna have to be more than just a 3pt shooter .. she gotta play inside out.. develop a middy , it’ll open up better 3pt attempts for her.
There's no way Fever is winning the season, but I wish Clark the best in her career! I hope she finds her footing, soon. Personally, I think the stronger teams this season are still the Aces, New York Liberty, Mystics and Mercury. Suns also started off super strong. Let's see.
Mystics trash yo
This is where Caitlin will be exposed :) if she doesn't learn to play defense and too much turnover.
Only came to see CC. 10 turnovers is crazy tho 😭
Fever kept up with them throughout 3 quarters then i dont know what happened
I know it's only one game but somebody put this comment in a time capsule and see how it ages.
Disclaimer: The #Fever is my B team #goliberty
Okay, CC got game no doubt about it but she shouldn't be pressed to be the savior of the FEVER because the W is trying to make her the savior of the league. In my world she would lead the second unit until mid-season but I'm sure the endorsement dealers would be throwing fits watching her sit and learn how to do her thing on the next level from the bench. With that said
1)To not capitalize on the dual scoring powers of AB and Nylassa Smith upfront as #1 and #2 options is insane.(if those two are fed the rock consistently not only will they produce but they will also wear down the opposing defenses which will prevent teams from double teaming CC)
2)Start AB at the 4 spot and let her cook !! (AB has dominated the power forward spot at every level her whole life where she has shown she can post up, face the basket, shoot from outside the paint, spin moves, etc) Why limit her at center when she has displayed so much versatility already? And if AB is going to be the center then bring back Emily Engstler to hold down the 4 spot.
3)Starting CC at the 2 and Wheeler at the point is very intelligent if CC "HAS TO START". When Wheeler needs a break bring in Mitchell at the 2 and slide CC to the point. If CC needs a rest you got Hull, Berger, etc(as mentioned earlier if the plan is to feature the 2 front court stars CC can't be doubled, she can either drill the open jumper while at the 2 or drive with the option to dish as point but she would never be double teamed)
4) If the Fever succumb to economic politics instead of basketball IQ there won't be much accomplished this season. If AB, and Smith average 25ppg each alongside 10ppg from Wheeler 15ppg from Mitchell and 16ppg/13apg from CC #Feverbb is playoff bound and fans will witness her greatness because true stars elevate their teams but if CC produces 35ppg/8apg like the W wants and her current teammates are paid to just force feed and watch her it will be detrimental. Only Nike and ESPN benefit from that.
Imo CC is more of a role player and they can use her like ray Allan other than that she is a 6th man player and shouldn't start
🧡🧡
Clark gonna be just fine.
Caitlin Clark Amazing,WNBA Is Back,so Cool😎
I think it'll be better to bring CC off the bench for now let her see the mistakes and learn from the vets .
As expected ... and could be seen that Brionna was a little rusty after the lost last season. And Fever completely changed a system that was starting to work really well last year because of CC, and it's a mess. Kelsey needs to fully recover and the Fever start playing like last year and CC complements that, not this. Well, let's see ... the fact is that the start of the season is really difficult for the Fever.
A first pancake is by a ball.
Hopefully the fever can get less turnovers.
7:49
Don't panic CC fans... remember she has an adjustment period per the vets... plus she just made a long ncaa torney run... she will be fine... they need time to learn each as teammates... trust me... she will be fine as the season goes along...
only 40 games, any lost counts more % compared to nba
@@skatedurr I mean what are you expecting from the fever? They aint making no championship run... so what exactly is your point about the % of 40 games
The Fever should not have drafted CC if they had no intention of leveraging her talent.
CC needs to run point, they more ball movement, & they need to be running effective screens.
Watch what happens when they hire a coach who will leverage the all time NCAA leader in points + assists.
That was a coaching embarrassment.
these women are nice 🔥🔥🔥 Suns defense is A1

While Caitlin is stretching the court with two defenders on her, her own teammates are SIDE BY SIDE PLAYING PATTYCAKE and a third teammate is close by those two.
Wnba more like GYATTTnba
Obviously Bonner is a great player but could the Fever not have tried to defend her a little better? Seemed like they didn’t even challenge her.
AB did not play well. cc will get better.

Man! Nobody wanna watch FEVER!!! Show Chicago Sky!
they got slapped
Clark might struggle in the WNBA, she's thin and smallest on the court, she will need to heft up. She's also slower.
02:15 - Poor Spacing
04:10 - Brutal turnover, up court sloppy
You're saying all that after one game? 😂 OK.
This the wnba all teams played this way this how the lowlights came about and why people been saying why this ish is on tv and still exist
Zero Reb and only 3 assists isn’t gonna cut it😂
I can't believe no one mentions the main reason why she played badly: she's been with the team 20 days! draft was just a month ago is literally impossible to come out and transform a bad team into a good one in 20 days. She looked lost specially on defense, you can see that this team as a whole was not ready and she suffers it. The GOAT MJ took many years to send the Bulls into the playoffs, she will be adjusting and show her greatness but she and the team needs time
