Sorry, Big3 followers … WNBA coach Stephanie West believes you’ll NOT see Caitlin Clark within the 3-on-3 league this 12 months — this regardless of the apparent temptation of Ice Dice‘s $5 MILLION supply.
The Connecticut Solar head coach informed Harvey and Charles on “TMZ Live” on Wednesday she feels the legacy Clark can construct within the WNBA will in the end trump the Big3’s money when it comes time to decide.
After all, Clark has but to mull all the pieces — she stated final week she desires to attend till Iowa’s run within the NCAA match involves an finish earlier than she chooses her subsequent transfer.
However, White — who performed 5 seasons within the WNBA earlier than changing into Solar coach in 2023 — stated if she have been in Clark’s sneakers … the choice can be a comparatively simple one — albeit one her pockets would not love.
“I’m kind of a purist,” she stated. “I love the WNBA. I probably would’ve chosen the WNBA as well and then I would’ve kicked myself financially for the rest of my career.”
No matter what choice Clark makes … White says she’s been great for the ladies’s recreation and girls’s sports activities typically.
And, get this … if when the Indiana Fever take Clark with the No. 1 total choose within the WNBA Draft — guess who can be on the opposing sideline in her first recreation?? Yup, none apart from White and the Solar!
Good luck, Coach!!!
