The WNBA is hitting its stride as a professional sports league. The league is seeing its highest attendance numbers and television viewership ever, and is also expanding into new franchises at an exponential clip, with two new teams joining in 2026 and even more coming before the turn of the decade.
A big part of the league’s success has come on the heels of the arrival of Caitlin Clark, who was selected by the Indiana Fever with the number one overall pick in the 2o24 draft.
Clark’s impact on the league has not gone unnoticed by her peers in the league. Star Minnesota Lynx forward Napheesa Collier recently spoke with Glamour magazine about Clark’s impact.
“The amount of money that Caitlin Clark has made the league is insane, and she’s getting 0% of it because we have no revenue share. She gets less than $80,000 a year, and she’s bringing in, like, hundreds of millions of dollars. It’s insane.”
Project B, an upcoming international league set to start its inaugural season in November 2026, and was hoping that Clark’s presence could help it catapult toward success as well.
However, one of Clark’s Fever teammates has revealed her final decision on playing in the upstart league.
“I tried to get her to play in this one, she’s like ‘NO,’” said Sophie Cunningham.

It’ll be interesting to see if Clark changes her mind between now and November.
