“Not only should you have known that Caitlin Clark was going to be a star, you should have prepared for it,” Dakich mentioned. “You should have said, ‘Look, this is what is getting ready to happen, so, let’s do everything to enhance.’
“Meaning, let’s be certain she’s on the Olympic staff. Let’s ensure that different (WNBA) ladies are good sufficient to not be morons to her. But that didn’t occur, they usually must [go] by all of this rubbish. All of this c–p, and (WNBA Commissioner) Cathy Engelbert didn’t perceive it.”

Dakich said he was told the WNBA wasn’t looking to “improve” the product but rather “defend” it.
“You had this twister hit, and also you weren’t prepared. You had this twister hit, and also you didn’t improve. Your insecurity shined brightly. But regardless of all that, Caitlin Clark, the WNBA and Angel Reese have grown.”
Dakich added that the Paris Olympics gold medal game would have been appointment-watching television if Clark was in the game.
