Jackie Young is all class.

[@swallman]

Ok I'm a fan of Miss Young now, what a classy move and completed unscripted which makes it so much better.

[@randallamirante3112]

. Me too

[@josephburkhalter5105]

Atta girl Jackie Young…….That took courage. Every act of kindness or good sportsmanship will probably get ticket sales up about 1-2 %. CC will make you all richer. Money talks and jealousy walks. Or maybe. Jealousy squlks and money walks. Think about it. Showing lousy attitude is a losing trait. Thank you Jackie Young. JoeB

[@quarterhorse9772]

That lady was showing sportsmanship and kindness. We need more players like her. I hope someone repays her kindness in some way.

[@CoffeeGordy-ze3hu]

I'm a Las Vegas Aces fan so it was very nice to see an Aces player to show the new star of the WNBA some love,

[@terryotoole6478]

Let's support Young !! Great stuff !! A true patriot of the WB !! ..

[@bushputz]

Thanks, Jackie. That moment of kindness should serve as an inspiration to all of us to be the best person we can be.

[@LaddGardner4]

Bad behavior is contagious, but acts of kindness and generosity like Jackie's move the needle in a big way, too. That was, for me, one of the highlights of a game played the way sports should be, beginning to end.

[@poetjunehardin2705]

I saw this and it warmed my heart ❤️❤️. This woman has class and should teach her colleagues. Jackie Young has earned my respect forever 🙏

[@daveufirst]

God bless the considerate like Jackie.

[@stellawynia9542]

The las Vegas aces are classy❤ way to go Aces total class❤

[@kathy0698]

Well...not ALL of them!

[@stevehardwick7285]

Since the Fever played against Taurasi and Griner, the hazing seems to be subsiding against Caitlin. She's still the number one focus on opposing team defenses and will be getting more pressure than anyone in the league, but the hazing and roughing up hopefully will cease.

[@KirkWilliamsIsBroken]

Nice work by Mrs. Young.

[@poetjunehardin2705]

Absolutely!!!

[@karaross4402]

Now that's what I like and wanna see. Not just for CC who has had it rough but for all players to be respectful and kind to each other. Competition is great but true kindness is even better. Class Act for sure by Young.

[@pennygoddard3100]

'Shocking"?? No. Not for those of us who have been around Jackie her entire life. :)

[@swallman]

For sure, zebras don't change striped so clearly this is who she is and who she has been.

[@poetjunehardin2705]

Players like her should be highlighted. I knew there was good people in the league. The nasty jealous ones were just louder

[@Carmine_Gallo]

The ACES are all class! Kate Martin couldn't have landed in a better place and I'm sure CC is happy for her 💯💯💯

[@user-rf6bq5tb7v]

Right? She seems so happy. Caitlyn is really getting screwed on the Fever. You can tell she’s very unhappy. She’s probably really struggling to be happy there. She’s obviously not welcome. That show they put on was all bullshit. They are changing her game and keeping her under the thumb. Ruining her. I still love Caitlin, but I freaking hate her teammates and Coach. I guess I expected them to embrace her instead of icing her out. Hateful coach and teammates.🤮

[@pcr517]

@@user-rf6bq5tb7v likely a stupid question (but new to WNBA) but why would anyone wanna be first pic if they go to the WORST team in the league? 🤷🏻‍♀️

[@user-rf6bq5tb7v]

@@pcr517 right? I think for most people it’s the money. The top 4 make the most. But in her case, I believe she wanted to go to the Fever to stay close to home. Near her family. I think they take care of her pretty much. She’s a Midwest girl and her support base is in Iowa, Indiana, Kansas and Minnesota. Plus she has a lucrative deal with Hyvee who only supports athletes in the Midwest. Also, Gainbridge, who owns the arena is paying her 500k a year….and she has other local sponsors in the Midwest. she could have gotten the Nike deal anywhere. But if that’s where her base supporters are, then the arenas will continue to sell out, whereas in other parts of the country might fade out…She might have preferred the Lynx as it’s only 4 hours from her home. ( that’s the Coach who hates her anyway, lol) But the WNBA doesn’t get to choose like the top guys in the NBA who can negotiate with teams…All said though, who could have predicted all of this hate? Hopefully it will die down after her Rookie year.

[@kateealer7]

The best part was that Young patted her on the back for encouragement. Back in the day when I ran DI in college, I always made sure to shake as many peoples' hands as I could after the race; that was how we were raised. We need to get back to that.

[@poetjunehardin2705]

Now that's class. She should teach a class and invite the league

[@padraicmorgan6127]

I watched the game and all the aces players embraced CC. they showed their professionalism well done,

[@poetjunehardin2705]

Don't agree. A PR move because of feedback from the fans. Ms Young was authentic and spontaneous 😊

[@user-uk6fj2qs3f]

Jackie has always been quiet and sweet laid back etc so this doesn’t shock me coming from her in fact.. a true class act if you will!! but you’re right so many more players should be treating her like this and not like she’s a foreign spy trying to infiltrate the game! I mean the hate CC has garnered from the W as a whole is just down right embarrassing! When her name is mentioned the response should only be “CC is amazing, so glad to have the added attention that comes with her and I wish her the best, can’t wait to watch what she does!” Vs we’ve sold out arenas and games, every game we sell out, there’s other players who are better, idk what all the hype is about, she’s not that good, she’s got a reality check coming! Do you see the difference?? Exactly!! Good job Jackie for rising above! 👏 👏 pray to see more of it!!!

[@poetjunehardin2705]

She now has fans who appreciate more than her skills. She proves that character lives on when your athletic abilities end!! 💪

[@poetjunehardin2705]

I'm now a fan of Ms Young and will always remember her name 🤗

[@rudyyarbrough5122]

Don't forget the Aces player who cursed CC after CC swatted her on the ear. After her teammates saw that CC had batted away a rebounding ball from hitting her in the back of her head, she and her teammates came onto the court and apologized to CC for their rudeness. Maybe the ice is melting.

[@waynejrice]

That was against Phoenix, not Las Vegas.

[@poetjunehardin2705]

OH we haven't forgotten. Ms Jackie Young is showing them all up and making them all look very small! Fans have great memories

[@Andysworld365]

When the Fever miss the playoffs, the true effect will be felt throughout this league. Hopefully the league sees this and addresses the poor coaching CC has and influences change. I was very happy to see Jackie Young showing a positive gesture toward CC. I hope more players show grace toward each other. Fantastic leadership from the vet Jackie Young. Actually, it was a great game vs the Champs. Alot of class was showcased on that court! Want to see more unity, and sportsmanship, that sells!

[@leeboy7139]

I think there is a lot less animosity towards Clark these past couple of weeks from current players. Even Lexi Brown gave her flowers. Brown stated Clark is number 1 on the scouting reports after saying not very complimentary things previously. The scouting videos are the proof the veterans needed to realize Clark is the real deal. I think Reese is the real deal too!. And I bet at least twice as many people know who Aja Wilson is now due to the attention the rookies are bringing into the league.

[@jeannepritchard2543]

What makes you think fever will miss the playoffs the two teams that can beat them to the playoffs has to play three more games than the fever does so odds are fever makes the playoffs

[@DM-uz9pw]

Kelley Plum was joking around with her too during the game

[@twistedarm]

This is without doubt the finest article I've read so far. Spot on! 100% accurate on All points! I hope all the WNBA players will follow Ms. Young's lead and be more supportive of CC's contributions to the game. Sell out crowds, needing bigger buildings, planes rather than buses to travel in, CC's talents are on full display, new fans growing day by day, what does this mean? Larger profits, healthier salaries for coaches, managers, players, everyone benefits from her popularity. I am impressed with the amount of time CC takes signing autographs, giving souvenirs to the young fans. That will pay off in future benefits as time goes along. Signing autographs is a long forgotten tradition in professional sports these days, I am excited CC is reviving this lost tradition. It is sorely needed to reconnect with the next generation of fans. JWD !

[@RoyHobbs-pj5rw]

That's how popularity spreads. Good video.

[@thelmaalmaden8131]

Love Young!

[@LeoCullen-ly6ed]

Respect and sportsmanship, congratulations Jackie Young.

[@wandasewell]

I so enjoyed seeing that act of kindness by Jackie Young! Kindness does go along way!

[@Terry_1111]

Great sportsmanship by Jackie Young! Love this!

[@jamesrhettjr.3026]

I enjoyed this episode. ❤ Thanks for posting it.

[@user-cv2ew7lz1z]

She is an awesome person for real she has my respect for she could have just kept playing but showing kindness like this proves she is human and has respect towards others and she is an awesome woman! So much kindness of this Lady ! Unbelievable Sportsmanship she is a Basketball superstar sportsmanship!! I have a lot of respect for her to Miss Young is a true person that we fans love to see on the court !! She has a lovely ❤!! And I pray she does very well in this Sport too for that was so amazing to show that king of respect!! She is a awesome example for young women to look up too and be like her for she is true Sportsmanship ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@ronpickens2396]

What a wonderful gesture. I live in Las Vegas in route for the aces. This was amazing

[@bobbylee9727]

Jackie Young's team mate is Kate Martin and the Aces team have such respect for the hard working and likable Katie that they are starting to like and respect CC more. Hopefully, this story will be seen by other WNBA players.

[@mgt2010fla]

That reminds me of how catchers and home plate umpires have each other's back! As long as there are no runners on base, an ump will walk the ball out to the pitcher if the catcher gets hit by the wild pitch. This gives the catcher a couple of moments to "walk it off"! The catcher does the same thing if the ump gets hit! Nothing is said, it's just automatic. Classy!

[@windbreaker57]

I'd be honored to meet Ms. Young's parents. Without a doubt, they must be very decent decent folks.

[@scottasbj]

One of those moments that could change the entire tone of race issues in the country. God, please! United we stand, divided we fall.

[@mcconn746]

Jackie, you got a lot of fans that day...me for one. Keep up the good work. We just want to watch good basketball. Hopefully you broke the cycle of hate mongering.

[@user-ql8wn2ot6w]

Jackie young has become my second most favorite player in the WNBA….

[@jackvoss1527]

That’s classy

[@annettemalaski1967]

Ms. Young! Your class shows as bright as the night lights of Vegas!

[@SoberchildofGod]

This was awesome to see, everyone wins in love and kindness ❤

[@indyford3531]

The ticket sales show she is the one that is responsible for the fan's interest! I am watching it now bc of C.C.

[@andrewthompson6192]

Excellent commentary post - 1000% agreed ! Caitlin Clark and the Fever played their best game against the LV Aces, keeping pace with the best team in the league - WNBA Champions, but was out performed by the LV Aces absolute awesome play making dominance by Aja Wilson and Kelsey Plum, particularly in the 4th Quarter when the Fever seemed to run out of juice. The LV Aces aren't the best team in the league for nothing, ala Michael Jordon, Scotty Pippen - The Chicago Bulls More than the LV Aces players dominance of the game, what I really liked about the LV Aces was their professionalism and respect for the other team. In one moment when Caitlin Clark was tying her shoes to take a breather after a hard fall, LV Ace Jackie Young joined in helping Caitlin Clark by tying her shoes aside Caitlin Clark .. showing class, true professional respect for the other team, in direct contrast to Chicago Sky's trash taking hate, personal verbal and physical on court assault attacks against Caitlin Clark The LV Aces are not just the best team in the league, but their also the most professional team who pays respect for their competition, is why Caitlin Clark fans pays their admiration respect to the LV Aces in return. LV Aces are a Class Act !

[@user-cp7ek8xf8p]

That's so cool, Jackie not only has shown Caitlyn human kindness it also shows sportsmen ship and that she has Class!!!

[@Sandy-xb1jp]

Class act. Maybe it will catch on when Jackie gets recognized for it.

[@williamking7112]

What a classy move by a superstar. I am glad there was a huge crowd to see the Aces play. They are my best team to watch. I hope the Jackie Young shirts fly off the shelf in Vegas.

[@joannebies3879]

I wish I could’ve act with the grace at her age that CC exudes. Heck I wish I acted like her now… many moons from my 20’s. I must say I love Jackie’s gesture. I see more and more little gestures. However the way Diana Turisa acted towards CC, made my day. I’m not exaggerating. I put out a lot of video comments about DT and the other jealous players. But I’ve been in Diana’s shoes with new people coming into my company, good ones, that were in line to replace us. It’s normal. But I know the feelings. I’d like to say I acted like DT. I didn’t and not for good reasons. I had too much pride to let anyone see any jealousy. It wasn’t done for good reasons. Back to CC and DT showing respect. The place I’m really surprised and mad at are how the coaches are acting. It’s despicable. They’re supposed to show the players what good sportsmanship is about. Kudos Jackie once again,

[@sheckyfeinstein]

Good sportsmanship. How refreshing.

[@staceyorwan2008]

JACKIE IS THE EXAMPLE ❤❤

[@mikethompson7613]

Jackie is a true professional

Great video! Thank you. ❤

TWO THUMBS UP ,A HISTORIC MOMENT FOR SPORTSMANSHIP.

[@patricksutton4393]

young did that on her own not worried about the rebutal by the wnba players

[@user-tv2rp5iz2s]

Indeed, there are a lot of good eggs in the WNBA. I bet there are more of this kind than the jealous type.

[@stealthbomber2127]

They have not showed it so far.

[@poetjunehardin2705]

The nasty jealous ones were just louder. There are those in the league who are happy Caitlin has arrived 😊

[@pjw1016]

I’m buying a Jackie Young jersey.

[@jimbintz2424]

Caitlin Clark is Susanna Hoffs, the rest of the rookie class is the Bangles. Know your history WNBA.

[@poetjunehardin2705]

BOOM 💥🤯

[@user-be1tj1fw2r]

I love 💕💕🌺 this. It's human kindness n all should have this.

[@hood_TheJoker]

very very classy...

[@poetjunehardin2705]

Indeed

[@edwardsullivan5481]

IMO the league is coming around and embracing the gift horse. The initial resentments or bitterness has withered while being replaced with a Clark inspired commonality of enjoyment.

[@pencilsandlight1318]

Sportsmanship is an old fashion concept. Perhaps it will catch on again.

[@erutherford]

I'm not sure if it's "basic human decency". I imagine that if I was on the court and someone fell down [that wasn't obviously seriously injured] I would play on UNLESS I had something to do with the fall. I would assume that the player in this case is classier than I am and for me to recognize that it would seem like a substantial act IMHO.

[@honeykin7890]

Amen!

[@petekraus7818]

Maybe there's hope for the league after all.

[@jdaniels1313]

The day I became a Jackie Young fan...

[@marcleblanc6293]

Another class player.....too bad they are far and few between in WNBA.

[@patricksutton4393]

now dont get carried away the league is not involeing one player has showen she wants to help the league grow how will thatresibste through the keague we will see

[@patricksutton4393]

a bold move by a bold person i tip my ht to you there are some fecent players around but can they change the league for future players

[@adarogers8591]

Look . Who the hell even saw wnba on KZbin much less cable. They should stop hating and get that bag ,thats women's basketball needs. They did it with Jordan Kobe and a lot of rookies who can get the owner paid . The owner gets paid ,you get paid. Y'all ain't gonna break her spirit. Was it her skin or her skills that got her there . All players know what it takes to get there. She use that hate as fuel, keep hating 😂😂😂

[@ozgoodphotos]

It’s a shame when someone does something any decent person would do is “breaking news”. Perhaps it’s just unusual in the WNBA.

[@arlypaulmigueldamuy5221]

I love Jackie Young. If only "woke" A'ja Wilson acted the same, the WNBA would be much better.

[@iamshebeeloloindigenous]

A'ja is all class! What exactly are you? Try and enjoy the game instead of showing your disdain for everyone except CC. CC is a phenomenal player but you don't hear us with the negativity. It's time to move on. Peace to your mind 😊

[@poetjunehardin2705]

Absolutely right 👍

[@bobbylilly3816]

🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

[@dfitzerl]

Why shocking? You guys must cease this Caitlin narrative

[@aaronblackford981]

Your actually wrong imo. The crap she’s getting is racism. That’s worse to me. However I haven’t ever watch a single game besides KZbin clips until CC. It wasn’t bc of racism on my part. I love my football and basketball teams. Even none are true home teams as I live in middle of many but no where. Even my closest nba team is thunder, it’s still not my team. Keep going CC

[@uaeio]

That’s your unsubstantiated interpretation about shoe laces. Video clearly shows that the game was stopped. .

[@kenpeters9807]

You used the word “incredible athletes”. What planet are you from? Want to see incredible athletes: look at the NBA and NHL. I think CC will bring,incredible athletes TO the WNBA!

[@wbazile]

Why is it shocking?

[@ArdeeCee1013]

obviously you know nothing

[@Wyatt-by5wp]

NOAH! Your video is crappy because you chose to make it this way. This brings me back to when I was the remote and antenna for our B/W TV. Then you chose to show 4 or 6 photos six times. NOAH!!! NO SOUP (subscription) FOR YOU!!!

[@feistygrandma2636]

I think the media is missing Caitlin Clark's head up, and that's a shame, because nobody is jealous of Caitlin Clark but they don't like Angel Reese so they drive in taking a clock to the nails, that's what it's all about, I love angel Reese and Caitlin Clark but I look at WNBA because of Angel Reese 🏀👠 period, now when I saw Caitlin Clark hit them threes from way downtown I said she's the female Steph Curry 🏀 it's her 3's for me, but she was doing sneaky stuff to Angel Reese off camera and Angel Reese call herself on camera lol 🤣😂🤣🤣

[@therealmvp232]

She fell on her knees . No need to baby her like she’s a toddler.

[@biggootz]

You obviously haven't been paying attention to what's been going on if think she has been treated like a toddler.

[@Letstieoneon3194]
