Caitlin Clark's entry into the world of professional basketball has brought on a flurry of new attention and hot takes.

Basketball analyst Isis Young, a former Syracuse standout and current college basketball and WNBA color commentator, joins Brent Axe on Syracuse Sports to make sense of it all.

Does the WNBA have an obligation to protect Clark or are a lot of people just overreacting to some veteran players sending a message to a rookie? How will all the added attention Clark is bringing to the game eventually aid the league?

Axe and Young also talk about if former SU star Dyaisha Fair will get another opportunity in the WNBA, her view of Coach Felisha Legette-Jack's approach in leading Syracuse women's basketball and preview the NBA Finals between the Boston Celtics and Dallas Mavericks.
