I agree, fans should not get involved with players of any team, for any reason.
That said, I do believe that other players are jealous of not just #CaitlinClark but of the other ‘24 rookies. #AngelReese #CameronBrink et al are being pushed around, because these players put butts in the seats and eyes on screens while getting paid handsomely to do so. And that getting paid part isn’t coming from the #WNBA (Clark’s salary is around $75k per season) but from endorsements.
