Caitlin Clark Hypes 'Unguardable' A'ja Wilson Before Aces-Fever: 'Pretty Incredible'

Clark, Wilson Face Off in Aces-Fever Semifinal Clash

Caitlin Clark, the Iowa Hawkeyes star and projected No. 1 pick in the 2023 WNBA Draft, heaped praise on Las Vegas Aces superstar A'ja Wilson ahead of their highly anticipated semifinal clash in the Commissioner's Cup.

"A'ja is unguardable," Clark said. "She's so strong, so athletic, and she can score from anywhere on the court. It's going to be a challenge, but I'm excited for it."

Wilson's Dominance in the Paint

Wilson has been a force for the Aces this season, averaging 19.5 points, 10.2 rebounds, and 2.1 blocks per game. She has led the Aces to the best record in the WNBA and is a leading candidate for the league's MVP award.

Clark acknowledged Wilson's dominance in the paint but expressed confidence in her team's ability to slow her down.

Fever's Defensive Game Plan

The Fever will likely employ a combination of double-teaming and physical play in an attempt to neutralize Wilson's impact. Clark emphasized the importance of teamwork and communication in executing their defensive game plan.

"We're going to have to work together as a team," Clark said. "We need to stay disciplined and communicate on defense. We can't let her get easy baskets."

Clark's Skill Set and Potential

While Wilson is widely regarded as the best player in the WNBA, Clark is considered one of the most promising young talents in the league. The 6-foot-1 guard is known for her exceptional ball-handling, shooting, and court vision.

Clark's performance against Wilson in this semifinal showdown will be a valuable measuring stick for her development and potential as a future star in the WNBA.
