Caitlin Clark says that guarding A’ja Wilson is virtually impossible, and honestly, in her explanation, there wasn’t a single lie.

“It’s fun to watch…everybody in the league knows you can’t guard it. You basically just live with what she’s going to do to you every single night. It’s just — you contain it as best you can…”
