As someone who grew up in Indiana & still lives here, the excitement for her being drafted & coming to play here is palpable... especially among young girls into sports. Everyone's talking about her, but those of us with daughters who play sports are really feeling her impact. Even the local suburbs of Indy are vying for her to live in their communities. There's multiple mayor's & local political figures putting out social media posts & local sports radio spots trying to entice her to pick their city to settle down in... there's not been this much excitement since Peyton Manning was drafted

Ms. Clarks’ Gifts and demeanor brought me back to this sport. I was raised in the outskirts of Los Angeles watching the clash of Titans Bird and MJ, then the Jordan era.. since then it was mediocre. I would tune in and watch Kobe and early Lebron , but only the highlights or last game clips at the finals. Then I stumbled upon a highlight reel of a pretty and humble brunette in a Hawkeye jersey, passing like MJ, assisting like Bird and draining shots from the parking lot like Curry on his best night. I thanked almighty God that moment for the gift he gave us ,of the splendor of hardwork and a dream in Caitlin Clark. There is hope in basketball and I am blessed to be alive to see it. Go Fever!! 🤒🙏🥰 Hawai’i is Watching.

I recall the publicity around women's soccer in the 1990s, drawing like 85,000 to the Rose Bowl then! Because women's soccer in the rest of world is still catching up 30 years later due to the horrendous sexism abroad, even in England and France. And Nancy Lopez in golf in the 1970s/80s. Also, I predict Clark will become more of a point guard, with fewer rebounds and layups, but more assists, steals, improved defense; and remember, she'll have much better teammates to feed who are bigger scoring threats, have more quickness, leaping ability, better hands to improve her assist numbers. As a comparison, consider the Balkan's NBA players who've made triple doubles the norm. They've upped their assist numbers as they've aged.

I'd take the under on points per game. She'll be a key contributor on the Fever but will also have some awesome teammates who present juicy targets for her passing. The Fever will perform far better having Caitlin focus on assists. And they'll figure that out in the first couple of practices. Luka Doncic averaged 21.2 ppg his rookie season. She'll have some big scoring nights but I'm thinking 16 points 11 assists per game. She is a very good free throw shooter. If she, like in the NCAA, continues to be aggressive going to the rim, she'll get a lot of points at the line.

The reality is revenue/ad dollars along with exposure are driven by men. And, no, I'm not a man hater. It's a fact that women's sports have been suppressed by men. What changed the tide in WBB collegiately was a short IG &/or TikTok video on the disparity of where women vs men were staying during the NCAA tournament along with merch received. It caused such outrage and gave much needed focus to the sport. The WNBA doesn't deserve the same salaries as the men. However, as the revenue and exposure grow so too, will the salaries. Thankful for breakout stars and the present attention given to women's sports in general.

@EetsBack I disagree. There's nuances the average person doesn't know. I'm no prodigy, I just want to improve the average. Stop blindly defending ignorance my guy.
As someone who grew up in Indiana & still lives here, the excitement for her being drafted & coming to play here is palpable... especially among young girls into sports. Everyone's talking about her, but those of us with daughters who play sports are really feeling her impact. Even the local suburbs of Indy are vying for her to live in their communities. There's multiple mayor's & local political figures putting out social media posts & local sports radio spots trying to entice her to pick their city to settle down in... there's not been this much excitement since Peyton Manning was drafted
I'm getting Caitlin Clark's Nike shoe as soon as I can!
@sulleys Let me know how much they cost when you get them. If you're going with Hawkeye shoes, expect $400+. I don't know what her Fever shoes will be.
she shoots three's
No you arent lol.
@@TheNichq pretty sure that's sarcasm or a very lost person.
Better than Lavar ball shoes
Ms. Clarks’ Gifts and demeanor brought me back to this sport. I was raised in the outskirts of Los Angeles watching the clash of Titans Bird and MJ, then the Jordan era.. since then it was mediocre. I would tune in and watch Kobe and early Lebron , but only the highlights or last game clips at the finals. Then I stumbled upon a highlight reel of a pretty and humble brunette in a Hawkeye jersey, passing like MJ, assisting like Bird and draining shots from the parking lot like Curry on his best night. I thanked almighty God that moment for the gift he gave us ,of the splendor of hardwork and a dream in Caitlin Clark. There is hope in basketball and I am blessed to be alive to see it. Go Fever!! 🤒🙏🥰 Hawai’i is Watching.
DP is sounding like a girl dad. I love the enthusiasm.
Who came up with the trend to start referring to people by their initials.It's annoying.It needs to stop and needs to be talked about
@@michaelk9284But CC22 sounds catchy doesn’t it?
CC22 sounds like a battery code.
@@rossw5576 that’s true , my bad.
Appreciate the honesty! On point and accurate.
"Genius move"? Hey Nike, come hire me because I would've had you sign Caitlin's endorsement deal too.
😂😂
right? more like world's most obvious move
Nike can't send Clark jerseys until august at the earliest due to selling out of them last week...maybe nike will hire you.😂
Pretty low bar for what's considered genius these days. But here we are commenting, so the clickbait title did its job.
Yeah I was confused by the title. How is signing the most popular figure in women's basketball a "genius move"? Thats what Nike does, they sign popular sports stars. Thats like saying Doc Rivers made a "genius move" by starting Giannis. Like what else would you do if you're in that space? A genius move would be signing an unknown for cheap that turns out to be a star.
Im a dude and i want her shoe and jersey we are all in for caitlin
Love you Dan. Love that you and your crew are highlighting Women’s BB, women’s sports, the WNBA. A couple key points: 1. collegiately, Women’s BB players cannot enter the WNBA until they play 4 years, or age out @ 22. *Check recent comments from Gino. 2. WNBA play 40 games. There are still DRAMATIC salary disparities, however let’s keep context in the discussion. ❤
Draft Kings is the scourge of sports.
Legalizing online gambling in general is just a bad as legalizing marijuana.
Love this opportunity for CC!
The Sabrina 1s are really awesome imo
Caitlin Clark will reach a wealthier audience who has money to buy these expensive shoes and all her Merch.
Every mom with daughters who play basketball is going to buy.
@@dukelombardi4565yup. All those little girls at all her games. They’re all getting them for sure.
There is no audience for her to reach. No one watches the WNBA, and Clark isnt going to change that much at all.
And the not so wealthy ones will just get them for free with the 5 fingers discount. 👌🏼
@@bobbymoss6160 smoke-dectector Americans?
Do they make those in a men's 12?
😊I hope they do because I wear a size 12
I wear 15s! They’d better have extended sizes!
She should call her shoes CC3'S.
Get yourself a pair of “Logo 3s”
Brilliant. Literally brilliant. They better do this!
Wow, I thought I had some decent ideas for the name of the shoe, but you just won outright - no other submissions necessary! 🔥🔥
@@mcanqbOne hundred percent concur! 🔥🔥
Good name for her shoe. Well done. 👍
They would be smart to have a clothing line too. Bball shorts, tops, etc $$$ it will all sell
Dan, bloop bloop bloop's himself:🤣
I love this idea
Ummm...not just the women buying them, I will be. If for no other reason than to showcase them in my Hawkeye man cave 🖤💛
The ones that Caitlin has worn most of the time is a Kobe shoe. I went online hoping to buy a pair, but they're no less than $400, and I even saw a couple of places had them over $500. I ended up getting a Kevin Durant shoe for $100, and it's pretty similar to one of the many different shoes that Hawkeyes wear.
Its not a matter of if I will buy the shoes but of they are going to sell the shoes worldwide??
I’m in on those👟👟👟the LOGO 3’s!!
Thanks Dan ... you said the correct answer NO SEASON TICKETS = NO MONEY!
How the heck is is a genius move? It’s as obvious a move as there has ever been
CC's shoe will definitely outsell/outshine Sabrina's shoe. I hope the design is dope!
Im pretty sure I could have a shoe that outsells Sabrinas lol. Who the heck is buying womens basketball shoes?
@@TheNichq You not knoweth of what you speak. Google "Why the Sabrina 1s are taking over the NBA shoe game" and you'll see that's it's actually one of the hottest shoes around, even in the men's game.
While running the grill at McDonald's is basically the same thing that Gordon Ramsey does...you shouldn't get paid the same.
Air Caitlin Clark brand.
She rocks❤
The NBA also has a 50 year head start on the WNBA - NBA began in 1946, WNBA in 1996.
Well all the other Auto Companies had a FAR bigger Head Start on Tesla. Now look a them. Women will drive just about all type Cars but most won't support the WNBA. Hence the Real Problem.
@@natureredux1957That's a great point. You ethered OP
Great point. One person making a dumb comparison owned nothing
@@natureredux1957 yea but tesla's only big in the US. Toyota and Honda are big every where
The salary shouldn't be the prize. The NIL is where the markets at.
If the WNBA start making money, they should share their profit with the players. Players should get a bigger cut of profit than 10%, without players, there wouldn't be a league.
i want the men's version of the shoe
CC wants to play in the Olympics. If they are smart they will add her to the team.
I agree with the 13.8 guy, because of the potential for pass first.
Many people are up in arms that A'ja Wilson doesn't have a shoe-- but we have to remember that CC has a MAJOR impact and audience on young women/daughters who want to wear this shoe for basketball. I think that A'ja needs a casual NIKE shoe for off court use-- I could see a lot of young women buying Clark's shoe for basketball games, but the older generation (who was there and watching before Clark came along) purchasing WIlson's casual kicks. Can we do both??
I’m hoping Caitlin’s visibility brings everybody to the WNBA so all these other ladies doing great things will finally start getting theirs as well.
A'ja Wilson has her own shoes too, it just not selling. May be she needs to work on her market visibility.
I'm a guy and I'd wear Caitin Clark shoes if they offered good looking men's size
Return your man card to the nearest Outdoor World.
@@bmrigs It's not like wearing a shirt or something. they're sneakers. I have a theory about wearing shoes that support women's sports. I think my man card is in good standing.
@@bmrigs LOL, tell me you are in insecure male without telling me you're an insecure male :D
@@332ARA Yep, he's clearly "not strong enough to be her man" ..or ANY strong woman's man. Good on ya!
@@bmrigs More men are cheering CC on then women. Men would by a CC shoe in men sizes.
happy for caitlin with all the endorsements. 🎉
Does DP understand that it’s not just women busting the Sabrina 1’s? There are NBA players wearing that shoe and many men have been buying them also.
Nike wise to corral CC before their competitors. Hopefully, HER shoe will be easily recognizable/flashy so girls would love to be seen in them walking or playing.
I’m a Sparks fan, and it sucks that Cameron Brink has no jersey yet.
I think it was the obvious thing. The genius thing was giving Sabrina her own line of shoes because that would appeal to Caitlin.
I’m not a shoe guy, but I had heard from many people that Sabrina’s shoe was one of the best things ever invented.
@@stuartu7150 Many of the NBA players love the Sabrina shoe. ESPN did a nice article on it. Because we can't post actual links, just Google "Why the Sabrina 1s are taking over the NBA shoe game" for the ESPN piece.
Get that BAG Caitlin! 💰💰
Here is the question, will CC even bother cashing her WNBA checks??
😂😂 It will be like Trump’s salary when he was president - donate the WNBA salary to charity.
You know she’s the type of person that will be extremely visible within the community and while I doubt she directly donates her checks, she will donate plenty in both time and money.
You know Nike has done some stupid stuff recently when people start calling what should be an obvious move “genius”
Well it doesn't take a Genius to sign one of hottest Sports Names currently.
DP talking truth: Put your money where your mouth is, if you don't like the look of CC22's contract.
because I don'y know, but, is it a "for sure" thing that CC is starting?? I haven't heard anything like that from Indiana...
Like Fevers coach has choice not to start her.
cant wait for her basketball shoes to drop. iam getting one. such a huge fan of her, she is the reason i started watching women college basketball and now about to start watching wnba because of her. but so sory for the other wnba teams cause iam only tuning in when her game is on.
Clark is going to be huge for the next few months then fade off as the wnba is unwatchable
Be like Clark 😀
And people were complaining about her paltry salary. Sponsorships are where it’s at. Plus, think of the attention she’ll bring to the wnba.
That’s a deal for Nike. They know their numbers
I Ejit Corner, A'ja Wilson deserves a Nike Shoe too. Caitlin desrves her flowers. Burning Spear.
Caitlin Clark is to Angel Reese as Pat Boone is to Little Richard.
Genius move?? How about no brainer
Under Armor, Adidas and Puma can't compete with Nike's brand.
Nike is a basketball brand.
Nike is a $150 Billion Dollar Company they Rule the 🌎💸💰💲💵😅😂😆😁
So you support China then?
How about her Jersey you can’t get until oct.They messed up big time not having her jerseys ready by the thousands
CC is the GOAT. ❤️🏀❤️💯👍
Only clicked on this channel because of Caitlyn. Just this one time
Will Bomani, Jamelle, and Keith each buy a pair?
22.5.
I recall the publicity around women's soccer in the 1990s, drawing like 85,000 to the Rose Bowl then! Because women's soccer in the rest of world is still catching up 30 years later due to the horrendous sexism abroad, even in England and France. And Nancy Lopez in golf in the 1970s/80s. Also, I predict Clark will become more of a point guard, with fewer rebounds and layups, but more assists, steals, improved defense; and remember, she'll have much better teammates to feed who are bigger scoring threats, have more quickness, leaping ability, better hands to improve her assist numbers. As a comparison, consider the Balkan's NBA players who've made triple doubles the norm. They've upped their assist numbers as they've aged.
As much as I love Cait I don't think she alone will make the WNBA more relevant. But I think she "and" the rest of the top picks in her class -- Reese, Cardoso, Brink, Edwards -- can create some much needed rivalries between teams/cities that can spark sustainable, long-term interest.
The WNBA isnt watched because people just dont want to watch. The players dont really matter. Clark is a great player, but shes not that much better then the girls already in the league.
@@TheNichq Beg to disagree. By her very presence Clark is changing the WNBA. Tickets for all Fever games are already being sold out. I suspect video viewership will follow suit. One can argue whether it's sustainable and strong enough to fuel league expansion, because if the WNBA doesn't expand it will eventually die, but she is single-handedly boosting interest in the league to unprecedented heights.
@@TheNichqMy guess is you haven't watched her enough😊
12 teams vs 30+ like the argument is asinine.
I was hoping anyone would make a deal with her but Nike. I don't want my daughter seeing an add with her and possibly a man claiming to be woman. I said this on another video, the vets would be smart to support Clark maybe even give her extra space first year try to get more people watching hoping that fans stay, and they can cash in.
8-Figure endorsement. Serena Williams Signed a $40 Million deal with Nike in 2003. Sabrina Ionescu's deal was $24 Million. My guess for Caitlin? $50-75 Million.
"BLOOP BLOOP BLOOP" *end tape* 6:54
I'll take the over. I think Clark will average at least 22 ppg this season. And maybe 10 assists.
I want to get a pair for my wife as soon as possible
I'd take the under on points per game. She'll be a key contributor on the Fever but will also have some awesome teammates who present juicy targets for her passing. The Fever will perform far better having Caitlin focus on assists. And they'll figure that out in the first couple of practices. Luka Doncic averaged 21.2 ppg his rookie season. She'll have some big scoring nights but I'm thinking 16 points 11 assists per game. She is a very good free throw shooter. If she, like in the NCAA, continues to be aggressive going to the rim, she'll get a lot of points at the line.
A brilliant move for Nike. A woman can never have enough shoes! Every line and style of CC shoes will sell out worldwide.
I hope she considers shoe deals other than Nike
Turned down Adidas & Under Armor. She already had a deal with NIKE
After NIKE promoted her and courted her with those free shoes and stuffs in college? Yea, she is sticking with NIKE. Smart for NIKE started engaging with her early on.
Huge shoutout to all the kids making her shoes and shit!!
I mean she played for iowa who is all nike... not sure she's just gonna up and change
Dude i want caitlin anything. Shes the biggest thing in the womens world period
Not genius. It was inevitable.
I wouldn't buy a glass of water from Nike if I was in the desert.
Calm down, cupcake
How come?
Nike is evil
I don’t like Nike either, but I’m buying this shoe.
Evil company
This contract is actually a Bargain the amount of free press they got just for signing her is already Paid off, and if she brings the WNBA to any new heights in popularity will be even cheaper i hope her agent got a percentage deal on there somehow
Bro NBA mascots make more than the highest paid WNBA player. The Denver Nuggets mascot makes 650K per year. CC salary 76K
I just can't see woman supporting enough to make a significant deference
The reality is revenue/ad dollars along with exposure are driven by men. And, no, I'm not a man hater. It's a fact that women's sports have been suppressed by men. What changed the tide in WBB collegiately was a short IG &/or TikTok video on the disparity of where women vs men were staying during the NCAA tournament along with merch received. It caused such outrage and gave much needed focus to the sport. The WNBA doesn't deserve the same salaries as the men. However, as the revenue and exposure grow so too, will the salaries. Thankful for breakout stars and the present attention given to women's sports in general.
That over under would make her a top 5 scorer in the league in 2023. Im taking the under. Shes gonna be great but remember Kelsey Plum was also a great scorer. Took her some time to break in the league
Nike wasn’t genius enough to have jerseys made in advance. If you order a jersey now it won’t be available until the end of August.
I'll stick with my Jordans!
Funny how one girl shooting 3's can motivate people to buy shit.
NBL: wNBA vs mNBA wNBA regular season is 40 games. mNBA regular season is 82 games. (‘Simpleton’ math says average wNBA salary should a bit less than half the average mNBA salary, but there are some other relevant factors.) wNBA 2023 regular season total attendance- 1,587,488 mNBA 2023 regular season total attendance- 22,538,518 wNBA 2023 regular season total revenue- 200 million dollars mNBA 2023 regular season total revenue- 10.58 billion dollars As good as Catlin Clark is she still not good enough to rescue the wNBA from relative obscurity. Adopt a wNBA veteran for only $18.99 a month.
Does Caitlin get a cut of the shoe sales, like Jordan does?
Her mother works in finance world and manage her finance and dad is a VP in some agriculture company, they better know how to negotiate a contract.
The black wnba players will now be so jealous now
If Sabrina Ionescu is the current best selling nike women's 🏀 brand shoe before Caitlin Clark who was the best selling nike shoe in men's 🏀 before Michael Jordan
Giving CCP-Nike too much credit, it’s a no brainer business decision.
The Jersey CC has been seen with yesterday was unbelievably bland. Have the children work on that Nike. Keep the stock relevant.
Diana Taurasi should NOT be on the 2024 Olympic team. She was injured 15 games last year. Has had enough opportunities to go in previous years. She is ruining her reputation being so narcissistic that she deserves it over younger healthier better athletes.
Yeah they gotta try to bring the straits back in. The Lia Thomas shoe isnt selling well. Not is the DWadeDaughter2 shoes....
Tiger was set for life before hitting his first professional tee shot. It worked out..because he was exactly as good if not better than any expectations on him. I wish endorsement talk with be on hold until she actually competes professionally. What if she really struggles against these other pro players, much differently than against her college peers?
NCAA is a professional organization if everything but name only. she's gotten the contract based on popularity, not performance.
Caitlin's Nike contract allows her to not have to play overseas to make actual money. Good for her. I'm curious how many men will buy and wear her shoe. It's probably going to be a lot.
can it be a genius move if it’s a no brainer?
Nike has zero Clark jerseys available until the season is over...good planning...😂
Under
Why not, a young woman like Caitlin Clark, is probably a once in a generation type phenomenon. She brought an interest into women’s college basketball, yet alone actually breaking scoring records. Nike signing her and releasing a shoe with her name on it, bang bringing it out, and if they do the advertising right, Nike will be making money.
They better get the shoes out before Christmas, many little girls and even boys who have been watching her play probably want one under the tree.
