There is something wrong those who criticize Ms. Clark. What has she done to deserve harsh words thrown her way? Oh, oh, we forgot that she is White and has privilege – even she admits it. But others have no right to flagrantly attack her on the court.

The latest diatribe against Ms. Clark comes from the co-owner of the Washington Mystics, who took issue with Clark being named the “Athlete of the Year.” Sheila Johnson said, “by chosing Clark, it could bring division among players.”

In actuality, people like her, by barking up the wrong tree, can prevoke animosity among players. This in turn will cause backlash on the court, possibly leading to Clark being a target of competitors and perhaps her own teammates.

We at the NBTP salute Clark for her athletic prowess while entertaining us in 2024. CONGRATULATIONS!
