Catlin Clark has had a tremendous impact on women’s basketball.  She set many records while playing for the University of Iowa and as a rookie player for the Indiana Fever in the WNBA.  She is the first WNBA player to record not one but two triple-doubles.  She broke the record for the most assists in a WNBA season.  She was named first team on the All-WNBA team.

Clark is responsible for the tremendous growth in WNBA revenue, attendance, and interest in the WNBA.  Wherever she plays, she draws record crowds.  People want to buy her merchandise. Go to https://amzn.to/3Zm0qV0.

Clark has broken the glass ceiling for great college women to earn recognition and money.  UConn phenom Paige Bueckers has been making waves at the collegiate level.  Buecker is the first college basketball player to create her own sneaker line.  Can Buecker lead her UConn to a national championship before joining the WNBA?  Buecker will undoubtedly be the first WNBA draft pick in 2025.  The Dallas Wings are expected to draft her.

Buecker was the 2020-21 Naismith Award winner, the Wooden Award winner and the Associated Press Player of the Year.   During her freshman season, she broke the record for assists with 168.  She missed her junior season with a torn ACL. As a redshirt junior, she started 39 games, averaged 21.9 points per game, 53 blocked shots, 5.2 rebounds per game, 150 assists and 86 steals for the season.

She scored her 1000th point in her 55th game at UConn.  She is a team leader and will have a great impact on the WNBA.

Since Clark and Buecher have been popular leaders in women’s sports, the public are watching more women’s sports and buying their merchandise.
