Tensions rise in the WNBA as Napheesa Collier, Caitlin Clark, and Cathy Engelbert clash over leadership

Collier, Vice President of the WNBPA Executive Committee, didn't hold back in her postseason exit interview, accusing Engelbert of tone-deaf leadership and alleging behind-the-scenes comments that have ignited league-wide controversy.Engelbert's alleged "be grateful" remark sparks outrageCollier claimed Engelbert had said Caitlin Clark should be "grateful" for earning millions in endorsements, crediting the WNBA for giving her a platform. If true, the comment would suggest a dismissive view of Clark's individual marketability and a broader lack of appreciation for the athletes driving the league's current success. Engelbert has denied making such a statement, calling Collier's claims inaccurate in a press conference before the WNBA Finals.What followed has only deepened the divide. […]

Cathy Engelbert faces backlash as Caitlin Clark’s Nike deal highlights gender pay disparities

When Dave Portnoyrecently expressed outrage over Caitlin Clark's eight-year, $28 million Nike contract, he wasn't just criticizing a shoe deal. He saw it as emblematic of a deeper structural issue: that the WNBA, and its leadership, is failing to fully capitalize on its brightest stars."This is now," Portnoy said. "You have to take advantage of it now." He warned that "commissioners are always in the middle and commissioners are always going to take the brunt of what the owners don't want to feel."
