Caitlin Clark has yet to even play a game in the WNBA, but she’s already led to a surge in ticket and jersey sales, and it sounds like she just signed a massive endorsement deal that includes her own signature shoes.

According to a report from NBA insider Shams Charania of The Athletic on Wednesday night, Caitlin Clark is expected to sign an absolutely massive endorsement deal with Nike that will also include her own signature shoe line.

“Breaking: Indiana Fever’s Caitlin Clark – the No. 1 pick in the WNBA draft – is nearing a lucrative, eight-figure endorsement deal with Nike, per industry sources. Clark is set to receive her own signature Nike shoe,” Charania said in a post on X, the social media website that was formerly known as Twitter.

Obviously, this is some pretty insane news for Clark as she has quickly blossomed into one of the biggest sports stars on the planet, and it led to a lot of reactions on social media as a result.

Clark obviously led to a surge in interest in women’s college basketball, and it sounds like she’s doing the same thing at the professional level now that she is heading to the WNBA ranks.
