Jemele Hill argues Caitlin Clark's prominence in women's college basketball is partly due to her being white, noting the media covers her more than players of color like A’ja Wilson and Aliyah Boston.
Hill feels this disparity isn't just about on-court performance but also racial bias, as black athletes seem to need extra factors beyond their game to receive similar attention.
Critics counter that media coverage follows public interest and viewership, pointing out Clark's significant draw and impact on women's basketball's popularity.
