Coin flip determines whether the NBA or WBNBA ball is used. Lets call it a game to 11, single point per basket.

The victor would be Viktor 11-0.
Wemby without a doubt. 7'-4" with a 9'-7" standing reach and 8' wingspan could cover for him if Clark drives by him trying to get to the basket. She's a phenomenal shooter from deep but again his length would make it real difficult for her to score.
I don't think she gets shutout but I also don't think it would be close.

only reason she wouldn't get skunked is because Wemby would probably let her score once
11-2 and it would take about 3 minutes
she'd get more shots blocked than ones she actually got off

Gobble.
BTW, if we're talking full court, I got Caitlin all the way.
Gobble.
Is this like a tortoise and the hare question? Because in reality, the hare always wins the race.
Same here. She gets around him and it is an easy bucket.
go ahead Caitlin, pull up from 3 and see what happens
Andrew Wiggins (pictured) is 6'8"
then Wemby would gain possession and score within 10-15 seconds
it would be a quick death

That is impressive!
If wemby took it seriously she wouldn’t get a shot off. And she wouldn’t get a rebound.
This Caitlin thing is out of control. She has average speed and is a decent shooter. Those who think she can beat Wemby up and down the court are seriously mistaken. I’ve seen him play, he doesn’t struggle to keep up with NBA players let alone a girl with average speed.
This is Wembanyama standing next to 5-10 Tremont Waters who is just 2 inches shorter than Caitlin Clark. She's crafty enough to get her shot off but each one would be extremely contested every single time.

It’s just our forum member who changes his user name on a regular basis asking silly questions again.
Here he's guarding Chris Paul who is the same height as Caitlin Clark.

Here's 6-1 Dennis Schroeder trying to guard VW.

Wemby just needs to take one normal step (for him) into the paint and he would have free reign to score over her everytime.

for those who think Wemby is just a big oaf with no handle
if they played to 100 and he spotted her 90 points he'd still win
please just stop it lol

Every shooter in this video is Clark's height or taller. Forget asking who wins between the two, a better question would be How many untouched shots would Clark get up against Wemby?

Using this photo. Maybe if she drove to the basket between his legs and layed it up, by the time he turned around the basket would of been made. So she might get one basket.😀
Wemby and it wouldnt be close. Hes not the typical fat slow big man of the past. Now if she played like 300 pound Zion shed have a chance if she ran around a lot early and just exhausted him. Even he would just back her down at will so just need to get him so tired he doesnt want to anymore
Wisconsin 2-6 against the SEC since 2007
I didn't even read any replies
Just a quick LOL is all that needs to be said
I like Caitlin, I think most of us here feel the same way. But frankly, the worst player in the NBA would still own her in any one on one contest.
This is absolutely, positively, without question, my final post in this thread. I won't come back in this thread even for a decent amount of money.
um, Clark woudnt get a shot off.
years ago, I think in the 90s, there was a one on one game between a retired Dr. J and retired Kareem. Kareem is noticably taller/longer than erving. some thought that dr j's superior ball handling and quickness would rule the day. nope. Kareem doubled him up like 42-21 or something like that. it wasnt even close. you can still watch it on youtube i believe.
the outcome would be even worse with victor vs. clark.
George Brett, Roger Clemens and Tommy Brady.
But they always return to the thread. It is like a Hitchcock thriller. But even more addictive.
Waiting for dinner to finish cooking, looked up the Spurs record. This giant of offense and defense led his team to a scintillating 22-60 record.
Clark is a better 11-14 with the Fever.
NBA is not baseball where your star appears every ninth at bat. I mean the pics are dramatic, but pretty much every midget player was on a better record team.
