Clark's salary is expected to be just over $78,000 for the 2025 season." https://www.espn.com/wnba/story/_/id/43890753/agent-fever-caitlin-clark-wnba-players-deserve-higher-pay Edited February 18, 20251 yr by caulfield12
February 19, 20251 yr Author The hunt for Caitlin Clark rookie cards has the newest release of WNBA trading cards selling for higher prices than the NBA equivalent for the first time. On Feb. 12, Panini, which currently holds the exclusive trading card licenses for both leagues, released its flagship 2024 Prizm set for the WNBA. Even though the league’s 2024 season is long over, hobby boxes are presently selling for an average of around $1,200 each across retailers, according to Waxstat, which tracks sports card retail prices. Panini’s 2024-25 NBA Prizm set will be released on Feb. 19 and the average presale price of a hobby box is currently around $800, according to Waxstat. WNBA and NBA Prizm hobby boxes each contain 12 packs with 12 cards in each pack and a guarantee of two autographed cards per box. Hobby boxes of 2023 WNBA Prizm carried a suggested retail price of $150, which means the price of the latest release marks a 700 percent increase. https://sports.yahoo.com/caitlin-clark-rookie-card-chase-213105532.html

May 14, 2025May 14 Author On Monday, a WNBA fan shared on Reddit an email from the LA Sparks, stating the team is refunding all "season tickets so they can sell them for more money." "With interest in the WNBA growing at an accelerated pace, we are constantly analyzing and evaluating our business strategies and opportunities to enhance the fan experience," the email from Sparks senior vice president Jerry Murphy read. "To that end, we have determined that we need to make some adjustments, which will directly impact your account." Murphy continued by writing that the refunds will be coming in roughly three weeks. "We are working with our AXS ticketing partner to refund the full amount of your payment(s), directly to your original payment method. Refunds are typically processed within approximately 21 business days, depending on the credit card that was used for the purchase. All LA Sparks tickets are revocable licenses." yahoo.com/sports Edited May 14, 2025May 14 by caulfield12
May 20, 2025May 20 Author Saturday’s Sky-Fever WNBA regular season game averaged 2.7 million viewers on ABC, marking the largest WNBA regular season audience since Memorial Day 2000 and the league’s second-largest audience of any kind over that span — trailing only last year’s WNBA All-Star Game (3.44M). Compared to Fever-Liberty on ABC the opening Saturday of last season — Clark’s third career game — viewership increased more than 50 percent from 1.71 million. To put the number in perspective, it is just shy of the 2.8 million ABC averaged for its NBA Saturday Primetime package during the regular season and surpasses every Major League Baseball game so far this season — including an unusually strong Mets-Yankees game Sunday night that averaged 2.54 million on ESPN. https://www.sportsmediawatch.com/2025/05/fever-sky-viewership-milestone-wnba-regular-season-clark-reese/
