JuJu Watkins declared better than an NBA star by renowned former player on YouTube

JuJu Watkins is one of the NCAA’s most talented players. Her moves and plays have made her a key asset for the Trojans. She is often compared to some of the biggest stars in both the NBA and the WNBA.

JuJu Watkins’ journey with her team has established her as one of the favorites. She’s also a player to fear—someone opponents don’t want to lose sight of. Likewise, her stats are the best proof of her talent. However, now a former NFL player asserts that the girl is better than one of the most recognized stars in the WNBA.

JuJu Watkins: The prodigy of the Trojans

Players know talent when they see it. In this case, it was Cam Newton, former Heisman Trophy winner, who spotted the exceptional ability of JuJu Watkins. Newton made it clear by declaring that the USC Trojans’ prodigy is a “greater player” than another very talented WNBA athlete.

For Newton, JuJu Watkins is better than Indiana Fever’s Caitlin Clark, who was an unstoppable force for Iowa Hawkeyes during her collegiate career. According to Newton’s statement, both are exceptional, but it’s Watkins who takes the lead.

To support his claim about JuJu Watkins, Newton looks at the stats she has achieved in her college career. He compares the numbers of both athletes, emphasizing that the Trojans’ star surpasses Clark’s two-year total.

Let’s not forget that JuJu Watkins has scored 1,684 points in 65 games so far—compared to the 1,662 points Caitlin Clark scored in 62 games.

Focused on Winning

Last November, Watkins became the fastest player in USC women’s basketball history to reach 1,000 points—a feat she achieved in just 38 games.

Moreover, JuJu Watkins’ accomplishments are her best calling card. She recently earned the AP All-American award for the second consecutive year. While the accolades for Trojans’ number 12 are well-deserved, Watkins keeps her feet firmly on the ground. She emphasized that all the stats are simply a byproduct of her focus on winning, not achieving individual records.
