    Skip Bayless Compares Caitlin Clark to LeBron James in Fiery WNBA All-Star Rant

    By Grant Young,

    1 day ago

    The 2024 WNBA All-Star Game is just a few hours away, and hype has never been higher for this exciting contest between the world's best female basketball players.

    A big reason for the hype is that rookie sensation Caitlin Clark is taking part in the game; as is fellow rookie Angel Reese.

    Given that these two women are among the biggest stars in the sport, a ton of eyeballs will be in Phoenix this evening to see them competing together.

    But Skip Bayless is still stuck on one of Clark's past decisions.

    Bayless went on an X rant Saturday about how Clark declined to participate in the WNBA Three-Point Contest.

    "Surprised & disappointed Caitlin Clark didn't participate in last night's 3-Point Contest. She is the "Steph Curry of women's basketball." But she said she has played for a year straight and that it's hard to just show up and shoot off a rack. LeBronesque w the Dunk Contest," Bayless posted on X.

    Bayless is referring to the fact that James has never participated in the NBA Dunk Contest.

    Although Clark did promise yesterday that she'd eventually compete in the contest at some point.

    Perhaps Bayless missed that part.
