Caitlin Clark is taking over the world after being the overall #1 draft pick for the WNBA draft. And since the news about her 8-figure Nike deal is reported, her stardom is rising to another level. Comparisons have been happening for a very long time with Stephen Curry and recently with Soccer legend Lionel Messi.

It is reported that Clark’s Nike deal will include a signature shoe as well. Previously only two WNBA players have received such an offer. Sabrina Ionescu and Breanna Stewart of the New York Liberty received offers from Nike. And it seems Ionescu’s sneaker success has made the comedian go gaga over the shoes.

Andrew Schulz, on the podcast with Charlamagne Tha God, said ” that girl Sabrina Ionescu first of all she nice but her sneaker is fire.” Charlamagne had no idea that she had her own signature shoes. Schulz even felt that the sneakers are “objectively one of the best-looking basketball sneakers they put out.”

The 40-year-old comedian even said he watched some of the NBA players wearing those sneakers, thus emphasizing on the reach of those shoes. He only had one request for Nike to make the signature shoes for Caitlin Clark even better looking than Ionescu’s shoes. ” So that’s another thing if you give when they do give Caitlin a sneaker and they better take your time with that s**t make it heat.”

But what does Sabrina Ionescu think of Clark’s success?

Ionescu on Caitlin Clark and the 2024 rookie class

Ionescu told USA TODAY Sports that she was eager to match up against the 2024 rookie class. Even claims that they are “really good” and will bring the massive fan base with them. Thus helping the league in viewership, merchandising, and will continue to push the league toward new heights.
“I’m excited to see how teams do and how attendance and viewership and records just continue to get broken for us,” Ionescu said.
“When you get to the pro level, everyone’s just kind of at a different stage in life. There’s veterans, there’s rookies, and sometimes it’s really hard to relate to being a pro for the first time. Just figuring out what it’s like to be an adult and have to figure everything out on your own and not have that supportive university.”

Even Andrew Schulz thinks that making money and garnering such interest will help them to reduce the pay gap disparity. Charlamagne thinks these women will lay the new foundation that the generation after 20 years will be thankful for.
