Would you draft Caitlin Clark (NBA)

[Knightro]

I absolutely think Clark could defeat a large number of NBA players in a 3PT contest or in a skills contest.

But she’d be completely unplayable in an actual NBA game.

[BadMofoPimp]

Does anyone think she could play defense better than Jett?

[Last Guardian]

Shooting is fine...she'd also be the single biggest defensive liability in history

Worst than trae?

Yes. (but not by much)

Correct. Even if she could physically keep up with the men, which all indications would indicate she could not, the ball she's used her entire life is completely different. Could she adapt to it? Maybe? I honestly don't know. But I think it would probably take her quite a while to do so, and no NBA team is going to take a flyer on her and wait several years for her to do so.

Lol she couldn't even play on a d1 men's team let alone the nba

To be fair, the very last pick in the draft wouldn't be a bad place to spend the pick. No she shouldn't make it in the NBA. I do think eventually a woman will come along and make it. It's a possible thing. This could be where it starts.

That being said though, it doesn't look like she is competing with men NCAA. Which is where we could at least draw an apples to apples for potential.

You do realize two women have been drafted already in the nba right?

I would of said lebron and kyle lowry, but that works too

[The Effect]

Cmon guys, shes 6' 155lbs....... that alone would pretty much prevent her from making it to the nba, hell trae young is 165 and would body her all day long at "only" 10lbs more

Add in the strength of all the other PG, the speed of all other PGs ........Theres no way she could compete.....And im not saying that as a bad thing. Shes alot of fun to watch, and might be the ONLY reason id ever watch a WNBA game, but shes not an NBA caliber player
