Caitlin Clark Drives WNBA Popularity with Record Views

Let me take you on the WNBA, 3.32 million people. It peaked at 3.8 million people for the most watched game with Sky and Fever. What were your takeaways with that? I mean, once again, there she is, Caitlin Clarke. Don't tell me it's not a coincidence. Every game she's in, it's the most viewed, and this was the most viewed game since 1997. Cha-ching! That's the cash cow. And that's what they have to take care of. But here's the thing I'm going to say to you in big sales. This is the biggest takeaway. Last night, 34 points apiece for her and Kelsey Mitchell, I do believe. I'm saying this right now. The Indiana Fever have a legit chance to win the WNBA title. You need elite guards who can make shots. And the way Caitlin Clarke, she has been on that heater. And Kelsey Mitchell has been hotter than fish screams. If those two continue to knock down shots, there is a chance that this team could win the WNBA championship. Because Melissa Smith is hurting with the Aces. People still don't believe in the Valkyries. They're still iffy about the Williams team not having the best record. And the Liberty can't get their act together because Sabrina can't make a shot the last three weeks. I'm telling you this right now. The way CeCe is playing with Kelsey Mitchell, and they've got Aaliyah Boston, they've got a shot to win the WNBA title. And the deeper they go, that's more ratings for the WNBA. Can you imagine if the Fever win an WNBA championship, what those ratings will look like and how important that will be for the WNBA? Jay White, I'm not saying to you that she's the best player in the WNBA. I'm saying she's the most polarizing athlete maybe in America today. So you can put that context in and take it and go wherever you want, but this would be a goldmine for the WNBA. I'm going to say this, okay? Kaitlyn Clarke is now the most polarizing athlete in this country. Ready? She is the most important for her sport. Because the better she does, the better the league does. NBA will still do great with or without Wemba Yama. NFL will do great with McCaffrey or whoever. Baseball has got Otani. They're going to be fine. They are leaning on Kaitlyn Clarke. They need her. We need them.
