Caitlin Clark's WNBA Earnings Are Likely Lower Than You Think

Caitlin Clark was the highest-paid women’s basketball player in 2024 — a year that saw her go from a record-breaking NCAA athlete at Iowa to her first professional contract in the WNBA with the Indiana Fever.

Clark and the Fever are back and better than ever for year two. The hype can be seen in Clark’s multi-million dollar portfolio of endorsements, from Funko Pop Figures and Panini collectables to ad campaigns for Gatorade, Nike and State Farm. 

Tickets to see Clark play are in such high demand that six WNBA teams changed venues to accommodate more fans for home games against the Fever during the 2025 season.

Clark’s undeniable television ratings during her 2024 Rookie of the Year campaign led to a national TV designation for 41 of Indiana’s 44 regular season games this year, starting with the season opener against Angel Reese and the Chicago Sky on Saturday.

But when Forbes released its list of the 50 highest-paid athletes in the world on Thursday, Clark was nowhere to be found. 

The $76,535 salary in the first year of her rookie contract was the primary reason why Clark does not make as much money as you would think based on her status as one of the biggest stars in all of sports.

Unlike many of her WNBA colleagues, the 23-year-old opted out of playing for Unrivaled, a new 3-on-3 women’s basketball league, this offseason. 

Unrivaled offered players like Reese and Sabrina Ionescu an average salary of more than $200,000 for just 14 games. For comparison, Clark’s Fever teammate Kelsey Mitchell has the largest salary in the WNBA at $249,244 for the entire season.

Clark’s off-court success is what kept her No. 1 among all women’s basketball players in total earnings in 2024. Her reported eight-year, $28 million contract with Nike is worth more than 40 times her WNBA salary alone.

Unfortunately, even the highest-paid female athlete in 2024 (tennis star Coco Gauff, $34.4 million) would not sniff the top 50 athletes overall because of the massive gap in salaries and revenues. 

There is still a long way to go for the incomes of the most popular female athletes to more fairly represent their huge appeal to sports fans.

From a lost cache of photographs of a folklore festival to the A66 dualling plan being approved – here are some of the stories from Teesside you might have missed this week.

A police force has gained a new four-legged recruit after it adopted a stray puppy.

Jager, an eight-week-old Belgian Malinois, was found running around the streets of Hartlepool last week before he was taken in by animal charity Stray Aid, Durham Police said.

After seeing the young pup’s potential, the organisation contacted the force’s Dog Support Unit to see if there was a job for him.

Hundreds of fish have died in a park lake after a significant drop in oxygen levels due to increased water temperatures.

Residents spotted the fish floating on the surface of the lake at Locke Park, Redcar, Teesside.

The Environment Agency (EA) investigated and determined it had been caused by “natural factors”.

A66 dualling approved again after review delay

A plan to dual the A66 has been approved again, a year after the government put the scheme on hold.

The project to widen the road, which runs from Penrith to Scotch Corner, was approved by the previous Conservative government, but when Labour won the election last July it put the plan on hold to review a “black hole” in the public purse.

The Department for Transport (DfT) has now confirmed the work in a £92bn national package announced on Tuesday.

Southside grad to continue athletic career at NCWC – Washington Daily News

Southside grad to continue athletic career at NCWC Published 8:19 pm Sunday, July 13, 2025 1 of 4 Southside High School graduate I’Kiriyah Minor will continue her athletic career at NC Wesleyan, where she will run track. She expects to continue to participate in the 100-yard dash, long jump, triple jump and at least one […]

Southside grad to continue athletic career at NCWC

Published 8:19 pm Sunday, July 13, 2025

CHOCOWINITY, N.C. — If you ever watched  I’Kiriyah Minor play sports at Southside High School, you probably got the feeling she could excel at any game she played.

During the fall, she was one of the standouts on the volleyball team. In the winter, she led the girls’ basketball team in several categories. In the spring, she made it to the Class 1-A state track and field championships after success in several competitions.

It’s track that has Minor’s attention and is the sport she will continue to play in college. She announced her intention on Monday to run for the track and field team at NC Wesleyan.

“At first, I was like, I was struggling really bad because I didn’t know if I was going to go to college or not,” said Minor, who considered putting sports aside and going to Pitt Community College. “So at first, I was going to go to Pitt if I didn’t get any scholarships. So I applied.

“I ended up getting help with a coach. And he told me to apply to his school because he got it when he saw me at track season. So I applied and like a week later, I got an email. And that day I got the email, I was like so excited.”

She intends to pursue a criminal justice degree at NCWC.

“I was so excited. Like I couldn’t think about anything else but that. I’m glad they gave me the opportunity to be in track.”

While she hasn’t made an official visit, she said she’s familiar with the campus and the college life she’ll be getting into now that she’s graduated from Southside.

“I’m currently in a group chat with all the coaches and some people that’s going to be running track with me,” Minor said. “I ended up making friends with some people on the track team.”

She’s taken some time off but will get back into the swing of things now that her college future is decided. And she’s excited to get that part of her life off and rolling.

“For track, it’s like it’s easier to meet your accomplishments,” Minor said. “And for one, it’s like an individual sport. So you get to focus more on yourself rather than just a whole team.

“I can’t wait, though. I’m really eager. But I know there’s going to be some competition because our school is not so big. But once you get to a college level, you’re going to have competition.

But that makes me even more excited because instead of just going to a college and there are no people to compete against, I’m just glad there’s going to be more athletic and talented people that I can compete against.”

JD Thompson, Milwaukee Brewers – Round 2, Pick 59
RJ Austin, Baltimore Orioles – Round 3, Pick 93
Cody Bowker, Philadelphia Phillies – Round 3, Pick 100

JD Thompson was the first Commodore selected in this year’s draft, going in the second round to the Milwaukee Brewers with the 59th pick.

He was named Preseason All-America (D1Baseball) and Preseason All-SEC after a breakout sophomore campaign during which he was named to the ABCA/Rawlings All-Southeast Region Team.

RJ Austin was drafted by the Baltimore Orioles with the 93rd pick in the third round. Austin became the fifth Commodore to win a Gold Glove after putting up some of the nation’s best defensive stats in center field this season, totaling nearly 10 defensive runs saved. The Georgia native tallied six outfield assists and made nearly 140 putouts while committing just two errors. The junior also earned SEC All-Tournament Team and All-Defensive Team honors.

In three seasons, Austin hit .283 with 14 homers, 139 RBI, 40 doubles and six triples. He stole 54 bases and totaled 134 runs scored.

Cody Bowker was selected shortly after Austin as the Philadelphia Phillies drafted the righty with the 100th overall pick in the third round. Bowker registered 99 strikeouts over 72.0 innings for the Dores this season. He earned the win with 4.0 shutout innings vs. #21 Tennessee at the SEC Tournament. Bowker went 6.0 scoreless innings vs. Xavier on March 9, totaling 10 strikeouts with just one hit allowed. He didn’t allow a hit and struck out six over 5.0 scoreless innings vs. Saint Mary’s on Feb. 23 and threw 4.0 scoreless innings with six strikeouts in his Vandy debut vs. UC Irvine on Feb. 16.

Seven Commodores were selected in the 2024 MLB Draft led by pitchers Bryce Cunningham and Carter Holton who were both taken in the second round.

There have been multiple Commodores taken in every draft since 2004 with six or more players being selected in four consecutive drafts entering 2025. All-time, Vanderbilt has more than 200 players selected including an NCAA-leading 154 since 2004.
