It is a sport that is losing white viewership. The same thing happened in the late 70s. Bird was the Great White Hope that (along with Magic Johnson) saved the NBA from going under.
NBA people want a Caitlin Clark who can bring in viewers. Whether you work for the NBA or one of the sports media outlets, if the sport is what signs your check, you will spin these games in whatever way favors your cause.

Actually I think mens and women’s basketball may be gaining more white players the last couple of years. With the heavy emphasis on the 3’s, it has been an equalizer to a degree.

And the Bird/Magic thing was fantastic, but it started in college and then bled over to the NBA, where those two guys played for two of the premier, big-market teams in the league on opposite coasts.
It was a rivalry made in heaven -- and had nothing to do with race.
