Stephen A. Smith suggests support for federal investigation into WNBA for treatment of Caitlin Clark
Stephen A. Smith responded to a recent opinion piece by the Wall Street Journal that called for a government investigation into the WNBA for the controversial handling of physical plays against superstar Caitlin Clark. The Wall Street Journal piece titled "The WNBA and Caitlin Clark's Civil Rights" drew mixed reactions this week after it argued that Clark has been subject to a hostile workplace due to how referees have called physical plays against her dating back her rookie season in 2024. The piece called for a federal probe into "potential civil rights violations." Smith suggested support for a potential investigation. "I'm not here saying the case will be won by the government if it gets to the points. I'm saying they have a case, they have an argument," Smith said of the idea during an episode of his show on Tuesday. Smith also suggested President Donald Trump could use such an investigation to solidify support among his followers. "Do we doubt that at his discretion, at his disposal, if he finds this to be an issue that is politically expedient to him, that Trump won't use this to feed his base?" Smith said. "If [Clark] is seen to be physically getting abused on the basketball court in a way that is such a clear and flagrant discrepancy compared to what happens to others, that that man is not going to say something? "You don't think Catilin Clark could become an issue of national, potentially international, and definitely federal proportions?" Smith cited recent agreements by Columbia University and Harvard University with Trump's administration to settle alleged civil rights violations against Jewish students and employees as a comparison for a potential probe into the WNBA's treatment of Clark. "If the Trump administration can settle with Columbia for a $221 million settlement over what's taken place on a campus, you think you can definitively rule out what kind of noise could be made if the WNBA continues to allow this treatment of Caitlin Clark?" Smith said. Clark's teammate, Fever star Sophie Cunningham, has been one of the most vocal critics of the WNBA players and referees in the physical treatment of Clark and how it is handled. Cunningam revealed how her former team, the Phoenix Mercury, planned to play Clark during the phenom's rookie season in 2024. Cunningham played her first five seasons in Phoenix before leaving to join the Fever this past offseason. "You have seen players in our league try to, like, toughen up Caitlin… Even when I wasn't on her team, I know the talks that Phoenix had in the locker room, like, 'No, we're going to show her what the W really is,' and I get it to a certain extent, and every rookie coming into the league, that's how you're going to treat 'em, but there's just more for her," Cunningham said on her podcast last week. "And now being on her team and seeing it, I'm like, 'What are people doing?' Actually, it's just too much. It's too much. I'm over it, and if I think it's too much, it's probably too much." Cunningham was on the other side of the situation when she started a fight to defend Clark during a game against the Connecticut Sun earlier this season. Cunningham said that after the game, Clark exclaimed "finally!" in the locker room. "In the locker room, she goes, I think she's like, 'Finally!'" Cunningham said. "But I think it kind of had our team together as a whole. Everyone was like, 'We do have to protect eachother.'" The scuffle went down in Connecticut on June 17, when Cunningham committed a hard foul on Sun guard Jacy Sheldon. Sheldon poked Clark in the eye earlier in the game, and then fellow Sun player Marina Mabrey shoved Clark to the ground. Cunningham previously called out referees just days after the June 17 fight while speaking to reporters, for not protecting Clark, when she had to first address the fight publicly. "During that, it was just part of the game. I think the refs had a lot to do with that. It was a build-up for a couple years now of them just not protecting the star player of the WNBA," Cunningham said. "At the end of the day, I'm going to protect my teammates. That's what I do."

Lynx's Napheesa Collier assisted off court after scary collision vs. Aces
The post Lynx's Napheesa Collier assisted off court after scary collision vs. Aces appeared first on ClutchPoints. The Minnesota Lynx were riding high throughout their game against the Las Vegas Aces until the end of the third quarter, when their star player and this year's top league MVP hopeful Napheesa Collier collapsed to the court in pain. Collier needed help to stand and support to walk to the locker room from the athletic trainers. Collier was a victim of friendly fire after accidentally colliding with teammate Alanna Smith while trying to extend the team's 43-point lead over the Aces, seriously rolling her ankle at the end of the fastbreak attempt. The Lynx later reported that Collier's injury was to her right ankle and ruled her out for the remainder of the game. Collier's impact on not only her fellow Lynx team members but WNBA players as a whole was on full display, as both benches emptied to check on Collier while she was down on the court. Aces star A'ja Wilson, and Collier's Olympic teammate, was one of those who came to the Lynx superstar's aid. Fans might be able to breathe a sigh of relief since Collier was physically able to walk off the court, meaning her injury could look worse than it was. However, at this crucial point in the 2025 WNBA season, the Lynx may want to prioritize caution so that they have Collier back at full strength before the playoffs begin. Collier came into the Aces matchup averaging 23.8 points, 7.7 rebounds, 3.4 assists, 1.8 steals, and 1.7 blocks on 53.7% shooting. Her MVP bid most likely won't be at risk if she has to miss an extended amount of time, but Minnesota's quest for championship redemption after last year's loss to the New York Liberty would take a major hit if Collier can't bring 100% of herself to the game.

Paige Bueckers matches WNBA legend with another impressive feat
The post Paige Bueckers matches WNBA legend with another impressive feat appeared first on ClutchPoints. Paige Bueckers already has her name all over the WNBA's history books. Bueckers has racked up milestone after milestone, putting together a first-year campaign that's rivaled only by Indiana Fever star Caitlin Clark. The Dallas Wings star rookie's performance in their narrow 88-85 loss was no exception, as Bueckers surpassed legend Cynthia Cooper to become the fastest player to the 400-point, 100-assist mark in the W. Bueckers and Cooper both reached the feat in 22 games, proving that the young UConn alum has earned her way into being discussed among the game's elites. The 23-year-old made history in a different way within the same contest, passing basketball icon Sue Bird as the rookie with the second-most 15-point, five-assist contests in WNBA history. Only Clark sits above Bueckers with 30 total. The game between the Wings and Dream was a back-and-forth battle that saw multiple lead changes and deadlocks before Naz Hillmon drilled a game-winning 3-pointer with 2.6 seconds left to seal Atlanta's victory. Bueckers scored nine of her 21 points in the final five minutes. Bueckers' go-ahead corner three at 2:36 gave Dallas a brief lead, only for the Dream to answer immediately before Hillmon's final blow. That marked Bueckers' 11th 20-point game of the season in just 21 appearances, placing her among the most prolific rookie scorers in recent history. The 23-year-old isn't just stacking stats — she ranks among league leaders in scoring and assists. Despite being a rookie, she is the only first-year player this season to rank in the top 10 in points, assists, and steals per game. Bueckers' averages sit at 18.3 points, 5.5 assists, and nearly two steals per outing, all while shooting efficiently from the field and the free throw line. The Wings had a close one slip through their fingers, but Bueckers delivered yet again. Her ability to produce in crunch time earned her praise from both teammates and coaches, and despite the loss, her mark on the rookie record books shines through even when Dallas struggles.
