Caitlin Clark has put to bed a bunch of rumors about her and the Three-Point Contest, as well as the Olympics. She talked about it all, so let’s dive in and get the details.

As Caitlin Clark and her three teammates, Aliyah Boston and Kelsey Mitchell, get ready for the start of the WNBA All-Star Game, it’s clear this is going to be a different type of game. Coach Cheryl Miller has made it known that these women are looking to give the Olympic team a run for their money before they head off to Paris.

Caitlin Clark spoke with the media, and Angel Reese had some great things to say about her as well. Plus, I’ve got a Josh Barry update with the Panini card set to debut at the Brickyard 400. There’s a lot to unpack, so let’s roll the footage.

Caitlin Clark shared her admiration for Cheryl Miller, highlighting Miller’s contagious energy and passion for the game. Clark referred to Miller as “Coach,” a title Miller playfully deferred, saying it would be determined by her performance during the game.

Clark first met Miller after her junior year of college at the Honda Cup award in LA, and they have since developed a supportive relationship. Clark spoke highly of Miller’s contributions to women’s basketball and her impact as a coach, player, and person.

Aliyah Boston, another standout player, was also praised by Clark for her continuous improvement and leadership. Their chemistry on the court has only grown stronger with time, and they look forward to further developing their connection during this All-Star break.

Addressing the competitive nature of the upcoming game, Clark expects it to be intense, as Team USA prepares for the Olympics. Clark expressed excitement about being in Phoenix despite the heat, praising the city’s efforts in hosting the event and recognizing the dedication of the team’s owner in promoting women’s basketball.

When asked about her decision not to participate in the Three-Point Contest, Clark cited the need for rest. Having played basketball non-stop for a year, she felt it was important to take a break and focus on her mental health. She acknowledged the impressive field of shooters in the contest and expressed her support for them.

Clark emphasized the importance of mental health, especially as a professional athlete. She shared her own experiences with maintaining mental well-being and the value of seeking support from psychologists or sports psychologists.

In addition, Clark discussed her partnership with Nike, a brand she has been loyal to since childhood. She hinted at potential future releases but remained tight-lipped about specific details.

Finally, Cheryl Miller shared her excitement about coaching a team eager to challenge the Olympic team, highlighting the competitive spirit that will make the game thrilling to watch.
