Patrick Bet-David Slams Brittney Griner Over Alleged Slur Against Caitlin Clark
Entrepreneur and commentator Patrick Bet-David delivered a viral, scathing critique of WNBA star Brittney Griner, accusing her of “disrespect, hypocrisy, and cowardice” after alleged slurs aimed at rookie sensation Caitlin Clark. His explosive remarks on the live “PBD Podcast” ignited a heated debate across sports and political circles.
“You want equality? Then show some damn character. You don’t bully the one player saving your league,” Bet-David declared. “That’s cowardice.”
The controversy erupted following unverified sideline footage hinting Griner used a derogatory term toward Clark during a Fever vs. Mercury game. While the WNBA hasn’t confirmed the clip, critics argue this reflects targeted hostility, deepening tension in the league.
Bet-David condemned the WNBA’s silence and double standards:
“If roles were reversed and Clark said something like that, it would be front page everywhere… You either protect your stars or lose your fans.”
Griner remains silent, while Clark focuses on basketball, ignoring the drama. Fans responded fiercely online, trending hashtags like #GrinerOut and #StandWithClark.
This incident exposes a growing divide in the WNBA — between traditional veterans and the rising star redefining the league’s future.
“This isn’t just sports anymore,” Bet-David concluded. “This is a mirror — and the WNBA doesn’t like what it sees.”
