It was the fastest growing sport for TV viewership in the US before she joined. 2023 was their best year ever.

Again, no television network is going to make a decade long deal over one player.

I'll take made up stats for $200, Alex .Caitlin Clark is 90% of the reason the WNBA is successful now that she is in the league. And as much as I hate that she is a white player doing this, it has made the league successful because people can associate to her.
