Caitlin Clark is receiving major praise as the Indiana Fever continue their strong two thousand twenty-six season, and one analyst has now compared her to two of the biggest legends in basketball history.
Colin Cowherd recently praised Clark on The Herd, saying, "She is Steph Curry, but with a little bit of a Michael Jordan mindset."
Cowherd pointed to Clark's approach to the game, saying she is focused on basketball and avoids getting pulled into the controversies surrounding the WNBA.
"All business, all basketball," he said.
Cowherd also praised Indiana's offense, calling it the best in WNBA history because of Clark's impact.
He highlighted her league-leading eight point three assists per game, her twenty-two point one points per game, and her ability to stretch defenses with her shooting range.
Clark has continued to produce despite the constant attention surrounding her and the league, helping the Fever reach their highest regular season win total in franchise history.
She is also receiving growing MVP attention as the playoffs approach.
Cowherd emphasized that Clark has not allowed the off-court drama to distract her from her performance, saying, "She's not driving the controversy like Michael Jordan.
She's all business."
Clark is averaging twenty-two point one points, eight point three assists, and three point eight rebounds per game this season, giving Indiana the league's most dangerous offensive attacks.
With the playoffs now just a month away, the Fever are entering an important stretch, and Clark's ability to maintain this level could determine how far they go.
Her combination of long-range shooting, play-making, and scoring has made her one of the most difficult players in the league to defend.
While her approach away from the controversy has also earned attention.
The Fever's next matchup is against the Connecticut Sun on August twenty-eighth at Gainbridge Fieldhouse.
As Indiana continues its push toward the postseason, Clark's performances will remain one of the biggest storylines in the WNBA.
