Caitlin Clark Has Highest Selling Jersey On Draft Night; Than Any Other Player EVER!
Breaking records is just another day; and becoming a ‘walk in the park’ for Caitlin Clark. Throughout her years in college, Clark has helped to raise attendance at live games; and in terms of viewership on television. Her playoff games during her final season at Iowa are some of the highest viewed matchups in women’s, college and sports history. Nevertheless, now her record breaking streak is heading into jersey sales. To not the surprise of many, Caitlin Clark has the highest selling jersey on draft night in HISTORY; by any player, in any sport.
This helps to really solidify the progress that women are making in the sports realm. And shows why things need to change financially for the league in women’s professional basketball. This new class of stars are bringing the influence, star power and CASH to the table.
Furthermore, the CEO of Fanatics was nothing short of giddy over Clark’s sales when the official numbers started to roll in for Caitlin. It wasn’t just the fact that her merch flew off the racks. It’s how FAST it all disappeared.
As soon as her name went out to the masses; about being the number one overall pick in 2024 WNBA Draft; Caitlin’s official jersey started selling like hotcakes. In literally ONE hour from the moment commissioner Cathy Engelbert says Clark’s name; the jersey in almost every size is GONE. Long gone.
Let that set in people. Size S, M, L, XL and XXL, adults and youths are mostly preorder only now. Which also probably indicates that not only women are buying. Everyone is getting in on this action.
Moreover, this is also a good sign for season ticket sales, as well as WNBA viewership. Individuals are already showing their support. And they are already set with merch to go cheer during a game.

Nonetheless, if you are still hoping to snag a Clark jersey; you can. Just have to hit that preorder button on the Fanatics website. However, don’t expect to get your purchase right away. CBS Sports reports:
“The Fanatics website said Wednesday that it was “sold out” of its initial batch of the jersey but that pre-orders were still available and that restock is expected to ship in August.”
So yes, the season will be well underway. But you’ll still have it in time for playoffs. Which we are sure that Caitlin and the Fever are going to work very hard to get to this season.
