Could Caitlyn Clark compete with D1 men?
I am very late to the Caitlyn Clark story but now that I am paying attention... wow! If a single player can prop up a league/WNBA, she may have enough "it" to bring that league to the same level of fandom as she has for college hoops.
It go me wondering - could she be a competitive player on a D1 men's team? Put another way, I she at least better and more talented than the worst player on the worst NCAA tournament team? Again, I am very late to appreciate her greatness and am looking forward to watching her from this point on - but, could she make a mean's squad? With her shooting range, I would think it's not impossible even with her major size and weight/strength disadvantage. Thoughts??

I'm going to guess the answer is no. The size, strength, and speed gap would be significant, and there'd be a learning curve as she adjusted to shooting a full-size basketball.

It takes nothing at all away from her, but not a chance in the world. It's as much of a fantasy as the notion that Conor McGregor had a chance against Floyd Mayweather. She's not even a very good defender against women. She couldn't possibly cover a man.
