Her being white definitely plays a part in her popularity but it’s more so how unique her style of play is. You can’t market layups. You can market step back 35’ers.

If a female could ever dunk with style I think that would also become the biggest thing in women’s basketball

NO shite, it’s also the reason former, and current players feel the need to say exactly that. Is it her fault that more people are following the WNBA because of her success? If anything, anyone involved with the WNBA should be kissing the arse of the current draft class. Instead of riding that high people are trying to bring it down because of jealousy and if it keeps up this time next year nobody will give two shits about the WNBA, just like it’s always been.
