‘The Caitlin Clark thing is over’: Radio personality does not hold back

Indiana Fever guard Caitlin Clark (22) gets the crowd excited Saturday, May 9, 2026, during the second half of the Fever’s season opener game at Gainbridge Fieldhouse in Indianapolis. The Dallas Wings defeated the Indiana Fever, 107-104.

Caitlin Clark is the biggest star the WNBA has ever seen, but she has admittedly struggled over the past several games she’s played. One sports media personality seems to think that’s a sign that Clark’s dominance is “over.”

On Saturday, Clark returned to the WNBA court for the first time since an injury ended her second season in the league, sidelining her for the bulk of the team’s games last year. While Clark did put up 20 points in her return, she struggled by her standards, turning the ball over five times and going just 2-of-9 from beyond the three-point arc.

In fact, Clark’s struggles from behind the three-point line are not limited to one game. In her last eight WNBA games, she has made just 9 of 58 three-point attempts, which works out to just 15.5% from beyond the arc. That’s not just bad by her standards, it’s bad by anyone’s standards.

Most fans and media members expect that the shooting slump is exactly that – a slump that she’ll eventually overcome. After all, she was the most prolific three-point shooter in NCAA history at the college level and set a number of three-point shooting records in her rookie season in the WNBA.

It would seem far more likely that the past eight games were the outlier rather than the previous five years of her collegiate and professional career, not to mention the fact that she was named the MVP of the FIBA Women’s World Cup Qualifying Tournament back in March. However, not everyone seems to see it that way.

Philly radio host and current co-host of The Craig Carton Show, Tyrone Johnson, did not hold back on Tuesday afternoon as he unleashed an absolutely scorching take about Clark and her recent struggles. Johnson boldly claimed that Clark’s dominance is “over,” claiming that her fame is comparable to that of former New York Knicks star Jeremy Lin, who famously had about two weeks of dominance back in 2012.
