Indiana Fever superstar Caitlin Clark has WNBA legend Candace Parker in her corner.

Ahead of the 2026 WNBA All-Star game, Indiana Fever superstar Caitlin Clark’s rank by her peers has become a major talking point.

She was voted as the 11th-best guard in her conference, which stirred up a lot of controversy. While some defended that rank, others mostly called it out, including former WNBA star Candace Parker.

Candace Parker calls out insecure WNBA players over Caitlin Clark

During a recent episode of the ‘Post Moves’ podcast with Aliyah Boston, Parker addressed Clark being ranked as the 11th-best guard ahead of the WNBA All-Star game.

“I wholeheartedly believe that there need to be some rules with the WNBA players, because this is getting out of hand. Caitlin Clark voted 11th-best guard by WNBA players? That’s crazy,” Parker said.

She added, “I think people need to look at themselves in the mirror and realize, man, you got some insecurities.

“If you’re sitting down and putting in Caitlin Clark as the 11th best guard, y’all need to go to the therapist and figure out what childhood issues you have.”

Clark, being the undisputed most popular player in the league, doesn’t seem to sit well with other WNBA stars.

But legends like Parker are still defending her, which signals that the Fever star still demands a lot of respect from the right people.
