WNBA GM's forgot all about Caitlin Clark and the the Fever as survey omits team from top mentions!

The WNBA GM survey has dropped, which is

a survey where they ask all of these

WNBA GMs questions like best players,

best coaches, best offseason moves, and

y'all

just get ready for a bit of a rant. from

the world.

>> Well, the GM survey has dropped and I'm

just going to say it straight out, the

disrespect

is just glaring. If you know, you know.

And I consider myself a pretty

level-headed commentator. I do glaze

players that I love. Caitlyn Clark being

one of them, Gabby Williams being

another one. and Raven Johnson is going

to get a whole bunch of glaze this

season hopefully. But I do feel as if

the league just kind of forgot about

Caitlyn Clark and forgot about this

whole idea that the league was turned

upside down upon her arrival. I do see

the league growing. I see it in a lot of

the things that I post on social media.

I see a lot of various engagement, but

the fact of the matter is Caitlyn Clark

is definitely a huge presence in this

league. Now, she did get injured last

season. So, I think that recent there's

a lot of recency bias, but it all starts

with the players that they choose to

highlight. And if you look at this

graphic, there is someone notably

absent. There's also an NBC promotion

for the league where they did choose

Paige Becker's uh Asia Wilson and

Sabrina Anescu. I didn't really say

anything about that because it's like,

you know, sometimes you do have to

highlight other players and whatnot, but

this does seem like just such a

consistent thing. And as soon as we get

into the actual answers in the survey, I

think you're gonna see what I mean. And

believe me, I do watch all of the WNBA

games. When I do post tweets, I post

about all of the players. I It doesn't I

don't even think about politics. I don't

think about any of that. I think about

what they do on the court. And I get

really excited. Like I got really

excited when Britney Grinder like was on

a heater in a preseason game. That just

to me was fun to watch because Britney

Grinder was obviously trying to prove a

point. I got really upset that Sabrina

Anescu went down and she's going to miss

some time after she rolled her ankle.

But I do think that there is so much

disregard for the Caitlyn Clark and the

Indiana Fever in general in this league.

And I don't exactly understand it. Let's

just go to some of the meat of it. Who

do you think is the best point guard in

the league? And Chelsea Gray received

73% of the votes from GMs, of which

Caitlyn Clark received 20%.

I I don't understand it. And Chelsea

Gray was an amazing point guard. The

things that she did in 2024, I wish that

everyone that is a fan now could have

been able to watch her. Sorry, not 2020,

2023. What she did in 2023. I wish that

everyone was able to see just what she

put down on the court. Unfortunately,

Chelsea Gray did go down with a big

injury and she returned in 2024 a lot

slower, definitely having to kick a lot

of rest off. And in 2025, her stats, she

was just a better shooting guard than a

point guard. That showed in the eye

test, that showed in stats. And there is

no way you can argue around that. In

Chelsea's best year in assists in the

league, she did get 7.3 assists per

game. That's what she averaged. And that

was in 2023. And upon Caitlyn Clark's

entry in her rookie season, Caitlyn

Clark not only broke the game assists in

the WNBA, she broke the overall total

assists in the entire for the entire

history of the WNBA. So, it's very hard

to argue that Chelsea Gray is a better

point guard than Caitlyn Clark. Even

last season with Caitlyn Clark only

playing 13 games. Caitlyn Clark averaged

more assists per game than Chelsea Gay's

best year, which was what did she get in

2025? She averaged 8.8 assists per game

with 8.5 total in her two seasons. But

she also did it while she was powering

through injuries. Imagine what would

have happened if she wasn't injured. The

recency bias in this is glaring. Last

season, Chelsea Gray did average 5.4

four assists. And I watched all of those

games and Chelsea Gray had a rough go of

it in the beginning of the season, but

she was able to get to that midi and

knock shots down. She could get a shot

off at the three in clutch moments.

She's Chelsea Gray is so clutch. Listen,

I'm of the opinion that Chelsea Gray at

one point was the best point guard in

the league. That was It's arguable. It's

arguable that Chelsea Gray was

definitely the best point guard in the

WNBA at one point. I do just think that

at this point, the torch has passed.

This is not being said from any hate.

It's just plain like undeniable. But

Caitlyn is not the only one that I feel

was massively overlooked as who is the

best shooting guard in the WNBA question

answer was Jackie Young, which okay,

that's arguable. But the number two

answer was Paige Beckers over Kelsey

Mitchell. But Kelsey Mitchell did get

all WNBA first team. She came fourth in

MVP voting. So, it's really weird to see

her under Paige Beckers in the shooting

guard position. I mean, even Jackie

Young got all WNBA second team last

season. There are a lot of things that

Paige and Kelsey had to do. They both

had to carry teams that were very hard.

But the fact is is that Kelsey Mitchell

carried a hospital squad to within five

within five minutes of being in the

finals game against the Aces. Paige

Beckers and the Dallas Wings did not get

anywhere near there. Now the I think the

argument might be that Paige Beckers got

19 points a game and Kelsey Mitchell got

17 point averaged 17 points a game last

season but I think it's like where you

carry your team and for that specific

reason I do feel that Kelsey Mitchell

was definitely slighted. Now this could

be marginal but it was only 13% of the

GMs that did say that Kelsey Mitchell

was the best shooting guard of the WNBA

and uh 20% for Paige and 27 for Jackie.

But I think that what happened to the

Indiana Fever last season with all of

these new people, Kelsey Mitchell kind

of like took on all of the scoring load.

And you can also argue that Paige took

on a lot of that, too. Well, listen,

let's move on from this because there is

so much more to talk about. Like Briana

Stewart has 27% of the MVP votes and her

season last season. I mean, that is that

was just like not in any sort of MVP

talks. Like how how is there 27% of I

just I just don't see it. There are nods

to a couple of votes for Caitlyn Clark

and Alicia Gray and last year it was

Nfisa Collier. I mean Nfisa Collier

isn't really mentioned here a lot, but

the only reason I see that as being okay

is because she will be missing a

significant part of the season. Other

than that, it's it's kind of like I I

haven't forgotten who Nisa Collier is

either. And as far as who they would

start a franchise with, the number one

answer was Paige Becker's by 33% where

Caitlyn got 20%. And again, I I feel

like the league is just forgetting the

trajectory that it catapulted into when

she entered the league. And I know that

Paige is being pushed heavily. You know,

she was just at the Met Gala, but the

Met Gala is not the type of thing that

Caitlyn I don't even think would go to

if she were invited. And she might very

well have been invited. I do think it's

interesting that 13% that said that they

would start a franchise around Dominique

Malonga, though. But it's like Stewie is

still receiving votes in this category

and I I I just don't think that it's her

time anymore. I mean, Stewie has I think

Stewie has gotten to the top of her

career and god, what a career Stewie

had. What a career for real. And she

looks great in preeason, but she is also

getting older. I mean, there were

definitely moments where I think that
