If that is the rule (leg extended outside the shoulder width) then I agree it should have been called a kick. Again, the league and the refs need to lean into CC. It is the only way forward for them. And I don't love that that's the case, as a guy who is anti-Iowa and not a big fan of CC for various reasons, but it's a fact. I mean, they could continue to treat her like she's just another player and not a g.o.a.t. level prospect the likes of which the WNBA has never seen (she isn't) but it will be at their own detriment. They can try again in a few years when Juju Watkins comes out.
Didn’t the wnba start in the 90’s? Theyve been through like 10 of these superstars. It’s women’s basketball in the summer. There’s a cap that even if reached isn’t very high.
