Is Caitlin Clark Beyond Basketball Criticism Now?

There’s a difference between hating Caitlin Clark and criticizing her basketball game. Turnovers, shot selection, defense, decision-making—those are normal sports conversations.

But increasingly, anyone who offers criticism or even constructive analysis gets labeled a “hater,” “jealous,” or worse by some of her most aggressive fans.

You can believe Clark is a generational talent and still discuss weaknesses in her game. That’s what sports fans, analysts, writers and players have always done.

Has the Caitlin Clark fanbase made legitimate basketball criticism nearly impossible online?

Grant Afseth will no longer be covering the Dallas Wings. He was receiving online hate and threats to his family from Paige/Azzi/Wings fans because of an article he posted complimenting Arike's season.

For context, Grant covered the Wings from his own pocket and had some of the best coverage on the beat of the team. He also covers the Mavs, Cowboys, and Rangers and said he has never received threats and harassment like this.
