Jason Whitlock from Blaze TV’s Fearless has called out New York Liberty players Breanna Stewart and Sabrina Ionescu for their disappointing performances in the WNBA Finals. Whitlock criticized them for ‘choking’ on the sport’s biggest stage, claiming that they actually set women’s basketball back.
He mentioned that despite the controversial refereeing decisions that favored Stewart and Ionescu’s team, it was evident that they couldn’t handle the pressure like Caitlin Clark. Whitlock highlighted that Stewart and Ionescu failed to perform when under the spotlight, delivering some of the worst championship game performances ever witnessed in the history of women’s basketball.
