There’s no denying that Caitlin Clark has been a huge factor in raising viewership and attendance throughout the WNBA. You don’t have to say it’s solely because of her, but she’s helped.

That became extremely obvious when news broke of Clark’s “Lionel Messi-Like” offer to participate in the new Unrivaled women’s 3-on-3 basketball league.

It’s unclear what the exact figures of the offer are as of now, but it’s worth noting that it’s significant enough to be compared to Messi’s $150 million contract, which includes partial ownership and other financial incentives.

EXCLUSIVE: Caitlin Clark could receive a “Lionel Messi-like” offer to play in Unrivaled’s startup 3v3 league, which is in a “full-court press” to sign her.

Everyone on social media is now left saying the same about Clark and her impact on women’s basketball.

“And ppl try and act like she’s not the biggest part of why the wnba was as popular as it was this szn. This league was started by Breanna Stewart and they’re going all in to get Caitlin. Why? Bc they know they’ll need those eyes to make this thing work being real,” said one comment.

“Caitlin Clark should be getting a Messi like contract with the WNBA itself as well in the next CBA!” said another.

“If she gets this deal it’s bad for the new CBA in the wnba. These players think they’re the reason everything went up, but they’re about to see their true value to the league and fans lol. If they get a huge wage it’s because the wnba is gonna need to keep up for Clark’s pay,” continued a third.

Caitlin Clark Could Participate In Both Leagues

Of course, even if Clark did take this offer, she could still participate and play every game for the Indianan Fever.

The Unrivaled basketball league will start in January and last two months, which coincides with the WNBA offseason.

Social Media Detectives Noticed Something Very Strange About The Blood On Aaron Rodgers’ Hand During ‘Monday Night Football’

Aaron Rodgers was spotted with something odd on his hand while he sat on the New York Jets’ bench during their loss to the Buffalo Bills on Monday.

The ‘Monday Night Football’ fixture pitted the veteran quarterback against the team that ended his season on the first drive of his Jets career back in 2023. While he took some hefty hits, he managed to escape unscathed this time around, except for what must have been a small cut on his left hand.

Rodgers was seen sulking on the sideline when it appeared that there was no coming back late in the fourth quarter. Folks on social media noticed that there was an L-shaped blood spot on his hand, which they found to be quite fitting, given that the 23-20 result did not go in his favor.

“It appears Aaron Rodgers has a blood stained “L” imprinted on his wrist- sorry Jets fans, that’s a sign. This season is over,” Emmanuel Acho wrote.
