Caitlin Clark and Other Major Blunders Force WNBA Podcast Host to Demand “Revamping” in Latest Rant

Caitlin Clark had an incredible rookie season, breaking numerous records and earning the well-deserved Rookie of the Year honors. Despite her outstanding performance, there are concerns about whether she is receiving the recognition and respect she deserves from the WNBA, especially on social media. Numerous errors from the league’s social media team have only amplified these concerns, prompting digital creator Rachel DeMita to call for a change.

DeMita recently addressed the ongoing issue in a video on her YouTube channel, highlighting the WNBA’s repeated failures in delivering error-free social media content, particularly when it comes to Caitlin Clark.

She pointed out various mistakes made by the league’s media team, starting with misspelling Clark’s name as “Cailtin” on the All-WNBA First Team graphics. These inaccuracies, including underreporting Clark’s assist count, have sparked backlash among fans and the community.

The recent mix-up during “Assist Week,” where a highlight pass from a previous season was recognized as the top assist of 2024, further fueled the criticism. The WNBA’s decision to prioritize a play from Chelsea Gray over Clark, who holds the all-time assist record as a rookie, was met with disappointment from fans.

Amid accusations of oversight from the WNBA, the Indiana Fever took it upon themselves to highlight Clark’s achievements. They shared her record-breaking stats on social media and compiled a video of her top assists, echoing DeMita’s sentiment for greater recognition.
