She can always do like most women and do OF if she needs more money.

Do you seriously want an OnlyFans of Caitlin Clark?

TFH•2 months

Well frick no. I don’t OF anybody. There’s free porn all over the net.

ALhunter•2 months

I wouldn't subscribe but I'm sure there are plenty that would.

Well, that's a shame, but with the popularity of some of these new girls going into the league that may eventually change a bit. Those college eyeballs may follow them this time to the WNBA and soon may turn a profit.

Shaq4prez•2 months

Why is that a shame? There is no revenue to pay them more. The NBA supports the WNBA financially. As a business owner, if you have a product that is consumed in low volume, you dont make as much as the store down the street that has the product everyone wants.

cajunmud•2 months

That's why I said IF their college eyeballs follow them. It would mean more ticket sales and more fans watching on TV. The network can charge more to advertisers and the league can ask for more money from the network, while the players get a small rev share plus NBA subsidies. More money floats all boats.

no one really wants to watch females disgrace the game of basketball at the professional level

denvertiger•2 months

I dunno...we watch LSU's men's team do it 30x/ year at the college level with pretty awful regularity

Waverunner•2 months

She will make 10X via social media and corporate ads combined..... TV contracts are the revenue source for professional athletes........It is a business. Take the emotion out of it.......

Frankly, WNBA players making a single dollar are still over paid. The WNBA loses money. The only reason it even exists is for BS diversity and inclusion feel good reasons. It is a shitty product with zero following,

Caitlin Clark, Angel Reese, etc. will lose their following over time, not because they are not great players, but because the WNBA is a joke.

Timeoday•2 months

Wow, I had no idea they got paid that much? Does that Griner dude from Baylor still play in the WNBA or did his criminal episode in Russia cause the WNBA to release him?

CR4090•2 months

Not shocking. The league does not make money!

WhoDatNC•2 months

If they paid players what people think they are worth vs what they actually bring in the league would have folded numerous years ago.

TheRouxGuru•2 months

You’re not making any sense right now. Nobody except their moms and some feminists who haven't watched a lick of this garbage think they’re worth big money

WhoDatNC•2 months

That would be exactly my point.

cbree88•2 months

Your reading comprehension is failing you, bro

Nosevens•2 months

Wait , didn’t Clark get a 5 million dollar offer from Ice Cubes league ?

Clark14•2 months

Is that big money for that activity? If that’s top pay how can the lower group afford to participate.

Basura Blanco•2 months

It is a league subsidized by the NBA to attract more female fans to the game in general. It is nothing but a marketing ploy like billboards and cheerleaders.

ALhunter•2 months

Ironically the largest WNBA demographic is middle aged men who like fundamental basketball.

JakeFromStateFarm•2 months

It’s only shocking until you realize the WNBA as a whole loses about $10 million a year every year. She’s lucky they’re able to pay her at all.

SomeLSUguy•2 months

Technically the WNBA doesn't pay them... they are subsidized by the NBA. But you are right, she is lucky to be get paid what she is getting paid.

KennabraTiger•2 months

She should’ve joined Big 3

Willie Stroker•2 months

Plus personal trainer, gym membership, dietician, health coverage…

lsutigersFTW•2 months

I make more than what she will make in her first two years combined

ALhunter•2 months

This isn't the brag you think it is... nobody cares what you make

lsutigersFTW•1 month

Sorry you’re a poor

biglego•1 month

Wow dude you’re rich

Sevensblue•2 months

Look no one gives a crap about the WNBA. Not a big ticket so salary represents that not hard to see

CanebreakCajun•2 months

She should have taken Ice Cubes $5 million. The WNBA is counting on this crop of women's college basketball stars to bring their tv ratings with them. But no one cares about the WNBA. They care about their schools. They may get some to follow Clark, Reese, etc., but it won't be enough to effect any major changes in tv deals. I'd like to see them make more, but the economics are not there.

ALhunter•2 months

She'll make more from endorsements.

Klark Kent•2 months

and that’s completely subsidized by the NBA.

SOL2•2 months

She's better than Pete and he made more than that 50 years ago

Spelt it rong•2 months

Look everyone! It's a moron!

thesneakypelican•1 month

Are you fricking high?

RockoRou•2 months

She could make half of that working "fast food" in California.
