    The answer is pretty simple. If you are asking the question, "How do we make someone a superstar," the answer is they probably won't be.

    The reason she's not more famous is because people are trying to make her the next Caitlin Clark, but the "next" rarely reaches the levels of the original. A big part of her online fandom consists of people trying to use her as an antagonist to Clark, which they can use for their agendas, that's why there are so many more "fans" online than butts in the seats. They say she would already dominate the wnba, wild expectations, which cause a lot of pressure for her, last game looked like she crumbled under that pressure. Fame needs to grow organically or else it's not sustainable. It's too early for the hype that people try to create for her, and people rarely like the athlete thaz's being pushed by a machine to be the next star.

    Juju is a great player. But I watched the UFC-Notre Dame game. Hannah Hidalgo is better. You can disagree, but from my perspective her game is faster - she’s more engaging - she’s more fun to watch. Hidalgo isn’t Clark - nobody currently playing on any level college and above is. But people keep pushing Juju and I don’t think it’s fair to her because her style of game is just not as dynamic as Clark’s. No biographical story is gonna change that. Clark is the generational player and I don’t see anybody coming along for years who can come close to the electricity she’s throwing out.

    Y’all so desperate and delusional. Juju is playing worse this year, especially from 3. She’s not going to lead the nation in scoring or assists this year when CC, as a sophomore, was the first and only woman to do it. Juju’s game is electric to ballers and long time fans. CC had pro ballers, long time fans, and new casual fans on the edge of their seats long before her junior year. You not knowing about CC is meaningless. You’re one person. So what? IOWA was the #1 viewed game of each round in the 2023 NCAA tournament for a reason while LSU was in the least viewed game until they played IOWA.

      💯 that’s because she’s a generational talent- some just can’t get that through their thick skull. Juju isn’t a generational talent. She’s good and got some skills…. Nice mid range and can get to the cup etc.. but her game doesn’t translate generational why? Because she doesn’t bring anything we haven’t seen before.
      What young lady we ever saw shooting 28’ ft shots and making them consistently? Sabrina Inescou can do it at times but that’s it.
      She brings something different to the women’s game. Period

    Caitlin Clark was always going to be huge. Angel inserted herself for the ride. Just before that LSU / Iowa Championship game, Caitlin had just put up back to back 40 pt games, one of which was a triple double and against undefeated South Carolina. Angel Reese taunting her or not, Caitlin would have the same stardom she has now.

    The question is: what extra do you bring to the table? Candace Parker can dunk, Britney Griner can dunk, and Caitlin Clark can shoot logo 3s and pass the ball through a needle hole..
    We have great normal players like A'ja Wilson, Breanna Stewart, and others. So what makes Juju different from them and others? Nothing. How can i root for you if you're not better than A'ja?

And there are others like them in WNBA. I like their games, but I don't root for them. You need something special, something different. If you can't dunk, shoot logo 3s.

      A'ja has won defensive player of the yr & has been MVP 3 times or so. Pheesa has won DPOY & is the offensive powerhouse on her team.

    She's not 100% right, she's 100% wrong. She in fact contradicted herself when she said that she didn't really know much about Caitlin Clark until the Angel Reese incident, then said that was the pivotal moment that launched Caitlin's notoriety.
    It's obvious to anyone that knows anything (even new WNBA fans) that Caitlin was a phenom while she was still in High School and was being fawned over by NBA players.
    Somebody needs to tell Samaria that just because "she" didn't know about CC before the display of horrible sportsmanship by Reese (who Clark CRUSHED in the box score in that game), that doesn't mean that the rest of the women's basketball world didn't know exactly who CC was.
    I knew this channel was going to milk the bad reaction they got to the Reese/Clark comparison video. They know it's not a valid argument, but they're going to run with it as long as they can and this is why journalism is dead today and commentary gets more attention.

    There're many ways to become a superstar, prescribed methods tend to fail. Melo SBall was shown to the world via reality TV, while Lillard was chilled & being a franchise player in Portland. Different personalities.

  • @KemperFi13
    @KemperFi13 26 дней назад +2

    JuJu being reserved or chill has nothing to do with her popularity or lack thereof. HVL and Angel are more loud and boisterous than CC for example but that don’t make them more famous or popular. That perspective is garbage. Melo was never as famous as Lebron because his game wasnt fun to watch and rarely translated to winning basketball. Not because of his personality. Bottom line, CC went to an underdog program, was shooting logo 3’s, breaking the all-time scoring record in the process while finishing 3rd all-time in assists, while looking like she should be a bench player which all captured the attention of the casual fan.

    The question at the end has already been answered. Despite all the self promotion of talentless no-class players like Angel Reese and Aja Wilson, the fans HAVE already spoken.
    They have already chosen Caitlin Clark as the new face of the new WNBA and the young players coming up after her are looking at her as the example and not repeating the mistakes of the las class. Reese and her ilk are the last of the WNBA "Squad". They're done. No more flashiness, no more pomp & circumstance, from now on, whoever wants their arenas filled, they better bring the skills to pay the bills and they BETTER be able to play ball because the fans are fed up with the drama.
    Caitlin has set the torch and is lighting the way for talented players to be seen and appreciated now.
    Everybody else can get the bozack.

    She has a story; she comes from a family of activists and chose to stay close to the community. That's the story. If you live in the United States and your story is not about interrupting the power structure or someone has offended Ms. Ann, you are not going to have much of a story to perk up the plantation mentality, folks. Stories only get told if they are racially charged and biased. JUJU will never be a story in the context of the protagonist, hero, and antagonist villain. Sorry that books have been written and milked. There is no shero to defeat besides those storylines types don't pop up every season. Go find a white girl headed for shero status hopeful from some small rural town in the midwest that the dominant society can rally around to prove their shero is superior and that JUJU is inferior and then have JUJU smoke her by 17 and deny her ascension to the basketball thrown then you will get your story. The only problem is that the ship has already sailed and has no sequel.
