Clark has said "No" to Project B, and we already know she won't be playing in Unrivaled League. Clark brought eyes to the W. Who then, will bring eyes to Project B? Here's Ben with some reaction to Clark not playing in Project B.

Fever protected list is going to have 4 easy calls, and one that will be cause for some debate.

CC
Mitchell
Boston
Hull

After that it becomes a matter of preference and if you think they'll get undrafted if left unprotected.

I like Timpson's upside and ability to run the floor, so I'd go with her. her being on an affordable rookie contract helps w/ salary cap implications as well.

He was referencing the complaints when Clark was on the cover of Time and others that the league should have been the cover story and not its ONE TRUE transcendent player.......

After Caitlin was named TIME Magazine’s Athlete of the Year a year ago, Mystics co-owner Sheila Johnson appeared on “CNN Sport” and asked, “Why couldn’t they have put the whole WNBA on that cover?....The WNBA is the league of the year because of all the talent that we have....Because when you just keep singling out one player, it creates hard feelings.”

Johnson said she wanted to be "diplomatic about it...while also admitting that it is the structure of the way media plays out race. I've seen so many players of color that are equally as talented and they never got the recognition that they should have, and I think right now it is time for that to happen."

Did anyone let Sheila know that it's "ATHLETE of the year". Not League of the year or "everyone's a winner this year".
