Caitlin Clark vs Juju who do you Draft and Why
- Thread starter becoolpt55

I would probably take Juju because she's taller and more athletic. But as Steph Curry has shown, a great shooter can make a whole team better, and Clark is that kind of shooter.
But Juju can do everything. I had to think about it, but not for long.

Because she plays great at multiple speeds. Even when she is playing slow
She is really hard to stop.

Juju is a 6-1 or 6-2 wing who is more athletic than Caitlin, and should have fewer defensive issues.
So the question is which woman's offensive game will translate to the W -- Clark is a brilliant passer, and if she's quick enough to get by some defenders, she'll be an offensive force. But if she isn't, she becomes a very good spot-up shooter.
Watkins may have to improver her perimeter shooting to become a big-time WNBA star, but everything else is in place, it appears -- and it's not like Juju is a bad shooter at this point.
It's a roll of the dice, to some extent, with any young player, and I'd be happy with both. But I would say Watkins' size and athleticism give her the long-term edge.

If I'm drafting the best, most athletic player, then I'm going with JuJu. But as the owner of a pro team that relies on attendance and ratings and flash, then I'm drafting Clark. Even now, JuJu is playing at an unbelievable level, but the nation is captivated by Clark.
USC isn't selling out opponent's arenas because crowds aren't flocking to see JuJu. Clark's swag is made for TV and the Pros. Plus, as Clay mentions, JuJu needs a better outside game and fans are drawn to long range, jack it up from anywhere shooters.
Personally, I'd rather watch Curry than LaBron, and the fact that Curry has the #1 selling jersey in the NBA seems to suggest others agree.

bandwagon fans... the states of louisana and south carolina arent impressed with clark.
Part of the reason why they aren't flocking to see Watkins is because the Pac-12 is retarded and the games are very rarely nationally televised. I think they've had 2-3 that haven't been on the pac-12 network. Hence more coverage for Clark, Page, and other great women's players.
Also part of the reason is Clark has a history that people can latch onto (have seen her do it for multiple years and a memorable March run). Juju is just starting out. I would think Juju develops a similar following by her junior year.
However, interest in college sports in LA is less than what the midwest is so that plays a factor too

Actually, people are flocking to see her games at USC. Attendance is way up, and she's just a freshman. It took Caitlin Clark four years.
The article in the new SI made me even more impressed with Watkins, and I'm even more certain she will eventually outshine Clark (who is a great player). Injuries could derail her, though, as they did to Cheryl Miller and Jacki Gemelos.

She now has a nutritionist at USC she needs that. You can see her struggling because she is not in good shape.
like I said before she can get better

I had a friend who went to the first UCLA/USC game that was sold out at Paully. There were just as many USC fans as UCLA and the first women's sellout in history. Now probably a lot had to do with both teams being ranked in the top 10, but that normally doesn't happen. She's creating a buzz in Socal and all I'm saying is that she's not getting thet exposure she COULD be getting if her team played on a national television schedule. It's a disservice to her and USC for the year they're having. Which is probably a reason everyone's leaving..lol
Juju also needs some BP skills work.

JuJu Watkins vs. Caitlin Clark stats comparison: How USC freshman could surpass Iowa star's all-time scoring mark | Sporting News
JuJu Watkins is making waves in Pasadena. And it's got some wondering whether she can surpass Caitlin Clark for the all-time NCAA scoring mark.
I just watched little bit of the 2nd quarter of the big ten title game. Clark sure does cry a lot
I love Clark but she is the darling so nobody will say that. Nebraska is giving Iowa a tough time.
That response sure sounds a lot like "What about Black on Black Crime. LeBron had nothing to do with this topic " 🤦🏿♂️
You know them warrior 'fans' always gotta bring LeBron into the conversation.
He is always crying although he has one of the best push offs in the game… and is twice as strong as the players he is complaining about
I didn't see LeBron mentioned anywhere in this post How did we segue to LeBron???
I don't mind whining. I get fouled everytime I miss a shot at 24 hour fitness. And I complain about it every time.
