7. I don't get why Clark is the target of so much animosity from the other players in the league.

It seems to go beyond the normal animosity of opponents in high-level competition. I get that there are a lot of racist assholes out there, but CC can't control their behavior. She's bringing more viewers to the league, which will bring in more revenue, which will allow every player in the league to earn a lot more money. I'm not even a Fever fan. I'm a Liberty fan (as you could probably guess from my avatar). Yes, my hatred towards the Indiana Pacers and Reggie Miller extends to resentment for having to praise a player in the women's game from Indiana.
