Clay Travis Show: WNBA Anthem Controversy Erupts, Jalen Hurts Health Scare & France Riots Rock NBA

 

The WNBA is facing fresh controversy after reports that both Finals teams left the court during the national anthem, and Clay Travis is calling out the league for what he sees as another self-inflicted disaster. Clay breaks down the national anthem controversy, the treatment of Caitlin Clark and Sophie Cunningham, and why he believes identity politics continues to alienate potential WNBA fans.

Meanwhile, Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts is reportedly sidelined for the remainder of the NFL season following a serious health scare involving blood clots in his lungs. Clay questions whether Hurts should have been cleared to play and examines the responsibility NFL teams have to protect their players.

Plus, violent riots and widespread destruction in France spark a fierce debate about Western civilization, while San Antonio Spurs star Victor Wembanyama faces criticism from Clay over a social media post interpreted as supporting the unrest. Clay also discusses the backlash surrounding women's sports activist Jennifer Sey, the Kansas basketball eligibility controversy, President Donald Trump's endorsement of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, and his Monday Night Football prediction for the San Francisco 49ers versus the Washington Commanders.
