TMZ Sports was the first one to report that Caitlin Clark has received an exciting offer from Ice Cube‘s Big3. As per them, the deal is a whopping $5 million guaranteed for 10 games. Out of this, eight are regular season games with the possibility of two playoff games. In addition to this, Clark would be at the receiving end of substantial additional compensation from merchandising and sponsorship.
One of the biggest shocking details about the $5 million Big3 offer is that they would allow Clark to play in the WNBA as well. It should be pointed out that the NBA which handles WNBA and Big3 has a long history of feuds and while it is not clear whether the NBA can restrict Clark from playing for Ice Cube’s Big3, this could act like a big factor for her decision.
Caitlin Clark could possibly become the first female player in Big3
The exciting offer that Cailin Clark has received is set to make her basketball’s first-ever $5 million woman if she ends up inking it. Not only this, she could possibly become the first female player in Big3 which will be as historical as the first woman who was drafted into the NBA. This won’t be a big task for Clark as growing up she played and practiced with men who were stunned by her skills and performances.
Furthermore, she has built a strong resume even before starting her professional career. She has broken and made numerous records, breaking Kelsey Plum’s NCAA scoring record and reaching the all-time leading scorer in NCAA Division I basketball, passing Steph Curry in all-time 3-pointers made in the history of NCAA, and the most recent one is breaking the NCAA Division I women’s record for most points in a single season, etc.
