>Caitlin Clark is one of the most polarizing players to ever step on the hardwood in WNBA history. Despite that, Clark seems to face a new form of disrespect every now and then.

>If being targeted by brutal fouls wasn’t enough, a new controversy has stemmed from the Indiana Fever superstar’s ranking among the top WNBA stars ahead of the 2026 All-Star Game.

A key reason behind it is that Clark was voted the 11th-best guard in the league by her WNBA peers.

>Upon seeing that, Christine Brennan, author of ‘On Her Game: Caitlin Clark and the Revolution in Women’s Sports,’ expressed her surprise over the disrespect that the Fever star faces.

>“Caitlin Clark is 2nd in the WNBA in assists per game and T-4th in points per game. A year ago, her fellow players ranked her as the 9th best guard in the league,” Brennan wrote on X.

>She added, “This year, they dropped her to 11th. This really is one of the most interesting stories I’ve ever covered.”

>No offense to Bueckers and Miles, they are solid players, but in no way have they surpassed Clark by such a huge margin in the WNBA.
