Will Kelsey Mitchell’s Signing be Career Motivated or Politically Motivated or Both ?
In my opinion, if Kelsey Mitchell is thinking of building wealth, a legacy in the WNBA, and having a rewarding career she would stay in Indiana for many reasons.
She has loving fan base in Indiana with sold-out crowds and millions of eyes on her every game.
On another team, she might not have the great ball distribution and defensive breakdowns that CC causes and creates.
She is already loved and appreciated in Indiana, what if her new team has bad chemistry or coaching and the new fans turn on her ?
Indiana has record breaking crowds and record breaking TV audiences that mean more merch sales and endorsement opportunities...
To me her decision seems like a no brainer...
Unless she makes her decision about politics
What has me worried about this, is that her very last repost on Twitter is from a BLM activist
Of course there's nothing wrong with that, everyone is entitled to their views.
But, if you look at this person's posts, they constantly praise A'ja and Kelsey, and support the WNBA, which is totally commendable, but even though this person seems to be an Indiana fan, they have never posted anything positive about CC
I just hope Kelsey makes the decision that makes her happy
I also wish Sports was separate from politics
A place where we can just come together and enjoy excellence without worrying about what their opinions are
