The Fever now have the front office to promote CC and the entire team as a profitable and winning team. And they now have the coach and staff for their superstar and teammates to go for it. Just see them picking up a free agent or two to become a true competitor for a title . Hope they get Satou. CC and the Fever will be the face of basketbal and all sports if they keep on winning. They will be 'rock stars'. Basketball's version of the Beatles!!!l
Looking at the stats from the fever the average ticket price was $152 and average attendance was 17,036 times 20 games is 51.7 million dollars in just ticket sales. Add in Merch, parking, food/beverage, sponsorships, TV views, etc the fever easily made $175 million to $250 million last year and just imagine paying this player a salary of $76k which is less than what my mailman makes
made? that's revenue. expenses are high, but i would think the team made a good profit. that said, if wnba players made more, most teams would go bankrupt. that's the problem with the league. and rookies in ALL leagues make very little.
It’s tru but they’re not any type business.. The W (CC) have opened up doors.. ppl are looking at them.. The world wants to see, that’s worth more then Gold my boi..
@@royvalenzuela1662 they will once we continue following players from highschool like everyone did Paige and azzi fudd. That put allot of eyes on Caitlin.
FFS. Tickets for Caitlin Clark's frickin' jersey retirement are going for upwards of $8,000 each. CC isn't even playing, but fans just want to be there to be a piece of history. Anybody who doesn't want to associate themselves with Caitlin Clark and the Indiana Fever are absolute morons *cough, Nike cough*. She's a better investment than any blue chip stock out there.
I get so frustrate by people who can't grasp that sports leagues make the majority of their revenue from media rights deals, esp those who play in arenas vs stadiums. So the reason the WNBA does not currently turn a profit is because they have had a horrible media rights deal for the last 10 yrs that was negotiated by the NBA commissioner. The WNBA will turn a profit once the new media rights deal takes effect next year, but the new media rights deal is also horrible & way too low. But the Fever ownership are making lots of money even without knowing their portion of national media rights. Local media deals should be controlled by the individual teams. And profits for everything from attendance, ticket sales, merch & concessions have increased over 400% this year. And I can only imagine what the Fever can now get for licensing & sponsorships deals.
I honestly wouldn’t be shocked to see a $1 billion valuation on the Fever in a few years if they put together a really good team and the hype stays close to where it is now. Especially if Caitlin decides to be a franchise player for Indiana. The reason the Fever are bigger than the Pacers is because superstar players matter. A lot. And I’m sorry but Tyrese Halliburton isn’t a superstar. Nice guy though.
That's one reason why the salary cap won't be eliminated. The other team owners don't want the Fever to put together a Dream Team in 2026. Without a salary cap, Indiana would be able to outbid every other WNBA team with multi-million dollar salary deals AND still not lose money.
Who would have thought that the WNBA would market the Fever as a sort of "America's Team." If they did that what player would not want to play for the Fever. That would be massive free agent bait.
NBA average for all views is 1.6 million. Multiply by the number of games. Multiply by the number of teams. The WNBA is not bigger than the NBA. They get around 4 million views for conference finals views. Now, the Fever are a phenomenon. And Caitlin Clark is the straw that stirs the drink. But how many views do the worst teams in small markets get for the WNBA? On the other, other hand, it is good to see this amazing upturn for women's basketball and it is earned, not hype generated. Tragically, the WNBA is straining every muscle fiber they have in an all out effort to stomp out the Caitlin Clark phenomenon. Maybe the stupidest thing I have ever seen in my life.
Kobe and Jordan were better and more skilled than LeBron. LeBron is 6’9 so everything came easier. Jordan and Kobe did it at 6’6 and won more championships.
I luv Caitlin but you’re reaching on this one lol. Caitlin is easily one of the most popular athlete in the country but world wide is next level she still have to work on… Steph IG 57 million followers Bron like 170 million Messi 502 million Ronaldo over 600 million. We love CC but let’s not rush her through the process she’ll definitely be one of if not the greatest WNBA player of all time
HATE, JEALOUSY, BIES, RACISM WILL DESTROY WNBA C.C. has brought in more MONEY and SPECTATOR and has done more for the entire league in 8 months than all other players in their whole career and we haven't got to the records she broke( 62 )or her stats that were better than the MVPs for the year 💥 C.C. should have been MVP & ROTY ‼️
They are NO QUESTION, America's team. How much money would it cost to buy the Fever. 10 Billion? Just to be an owner who could be around CC all the time.
I believe the Paige does not want to be the number one draft pick because she does not want to go to Dallas so she is tanking so she can go to Los Angeles
It would be a mistake for her to land in Dallas. She needs to do a John Elway and get Daiias to trade her or else stay in college and see what's up in 2026.
If Paige is tanking on purpose it will follow her the rest of her career. Paige is suppose to be one of the best players coming out of college. Paige has an opportunity to show what she can do for the Wings. That’s the difference between a true basketball player. A true basketball player plays to help a team reach the championship not bell out when there’s going to be challenges. 🌺🏀
With Fever earnings they can hire anybody players they need but they are tied up with the salary cap space at USD1.5 million .So they really have to studied meticouslly they really need to hire within the salary cap space
IDK A good business award with a terrible agent and a bad NIKE deal? This one confuses me. CC should be making 10x and I believe she would if she had a better agent.
I'm a long-time subscriber and I can tell you he has never demonstrated anything other than respect. I see him as something of a big brother. He admits his financial ties to her, but there's just so much more to it than that.

Caitlin Clark is the greatest thing to happen to basketball since Michael Jordan. Same as Tiger Woods for golf and prime Serena Williams for tennis.
Philippines here.. fan of CC... 1st time watching wnba. 😂 cant wait next season
Fever are huge. I literally traveled to Indiana from Los Angeles to watch a game.
Well 38 of her 40 games were on National TV. They were America's team from the jump!
Because television networks run a business.. they want to make money, and if nobody watches then they dont.
America's Team. I've been saying this for months.
Merry christmas mick ,get better soon bro.

Problem is that the WNBA is too focused on activism to be an actual business.

They only started activism 4 years ago. This comment is trash. People don’t want to see women’s ball unless there is political drama.

I heard caitlin is more popular in Serbia than Jokic
She should play there instead. The W is ballz
Willing to contribute for the Irishman. Great stamina Mick

All I want for Christmas is you doing a vlog on Aerial Powers signing to Fever.
Heard she nice myboi.. Need to see some video of her cross seas
I no longer do the NBA so I would agree she is on top
Mike that is no surprise to me that Clark is that popular. 🤣

@@Sistasoulja-825 The WNBA lost LESS money due to the Caitlin Clark Effect.

Revenue for the league comes from media deals. Now, the fever, I am sure, made a huge profit because of CC, but not the entire league.

Just put her on the Pacers team and everyone wins. Pacers get more fans that they want and the WNBA get her out of there league. Win win.
The Pacers will make more money from ticket sales because they play twice as many games.

Listen to the Eagles "New Kid in Town "
This is a straight lie 😂

Cc is bigger than LeBron ??? Stay off the drugs bro
It is a fact. Lebron is the cause for why ratings are catering in the NBA. CC is the cause for why ratings increased in the WNBA
Isn't LeBron like 6'9"?? Nine inches and 90 lbs?? Oh yeah, he is bigger than Caitlin!!! Time for him to hang up the sneakers though🙁

Very possible.
Maybe if Flau'Jae declares. Not a lot of real "star power" in this draft after Paige.
