Clark can not be a nash/Stockton type because she cannot dribble, her IQ is low.
And she isn't a facilitator.
Yep or at least an arm's reach PnR finisher! That's why it never as good of a play as it is in the NBAI just realized it's so hard to run a pick and roll without a lob threat. You'll get a million turnovers passing thru arms and legs
My personal comp for Clark is Trae Young if she had LeMelo Ball body and athleticism if she was a dude. She can pass her ass off, run the PnR and really attack the paint but she can't run an offense for shyt and while her awareness is exceptional her feel for the game is lacking. She's just another Harden like Trae and Luka. It's just that big Harden, Luka is the best of them all.Clark can not be a nash/Stockton type because she cannot dribble, her IQ is low.

Her best attribute is supposed to be her shooting and she isn't exceptional at that.
If you are a shooter you can shoot at any level in any situation. She hasn't shown that.
What I'm seeing from her in the last 2 games is her playing more under control... More on the cautious side. And the games have been closer without one player having a teams worth of turnovers.
But you can't have your point guard playing cautious like that.
Shes gonna have to get in the gym in the office season, if she gets an off season, and add more to her bag.
Her handles aren't comparable to Trae at all. She's also severely lacking a good quick first step. But her playmaking ability is already top tier in the league. And if she gets hot from those deep 3s she creates a gravity where it opens alot of space and opportunity for others to score. There's other good shooters in the league but no one is doing that which is why she gets picked up full court. Watching her she moves in a way an NBA player does with less athleticism which is part of the initial appeal. Aja Wilson has similar movements with a little more athleticism.My personal comp for Clark is Trae Young if she had LeMelo Ball body and athleticism if she was a dude.

Damn...Some of you are straight haters....Coming to a conclusion on a rookie who has played through the toughest opening stretch of games in WNBA history...
"she can't dribble"
"her IQ is low"
"she isn't a facilitator"
"She can't shoot"
Kiki without thinking twice and trade Smith for a big wingIf the fever ends up with the #1 pick again, do they go after paige or kiki???
Clark's comparison is literally Sabrina Ionescu. They have the same rookie numbers so far, love shooting threes and are average defenders.
On the game though, Sparks fumbled an easy win. Lexie was chucking shots, Nurse had looks but couldn't hit and Brink was in foul trouble. Jackson & Hamby were the only ones who could've saved the game, but it was too late. Also, Curt needs to put Jackson in the starting 5 and let her/Brink be a Kobe/Shaq duo.
Much different scenario though
* Sabrina only played 3 games as a rookie
* 2 of the 3 teams Sabrina faced as a rookie were garbage defensively
* Sabrina had time to train/rest before her rookie season due to her senior season coming to a premature end (covid)
* Clark has had no rest and is playing a brutal schedule to start the season
* Clark has faced S.Curry level of defense
The comparison is good but the scenario is much different.
We got a lot of games today
