Caitlin Clark and Angel Reese are overpaid with their new $70K-plus WNBA contracts and critics are trying to give them a sense of entitlement, like retired soccer star Megan Rapinoe, according to conservative sports commentator Jason Whitlock. 

Clark and Reese were arguably the two biggest stars in women's college basketball this past season, with unprecedented ratings coming to the sport. 

Clark and Iowa's final three games of the NCAA Tournament, including an Elite Eight matchup against Reese's LSU squad, each set the record for the most-watch women's college basketball game of all-time. 

Still, some are unpleased with Clark's rookie-year contract with the Indiana Fever of around $76,000, and Reese's $73,000 deal with the Chicago Sky. 

Whitlock warns that Clark and Reese giving the impression they're owed something would be horrible for them.
