Interest is at an all-time high for women's basketball and for the Fever. TV rights partners and the WNBA have leaned into Caitlin Clark's star appeal even before she's been drafted.
This is unreal yet not surprising. I’m sure there are already other cities finalizing their blueprints for how they can get a WNBA franchise. 12 teams is simply not enough but it is if the product is not up to snuff. I think we all would agree that isn’t the case anymore and I’d love to see 16 teams in the next 3-5 years; might be a bit ambitious though. Either way, this is huge news for Indiana as a whole! Good stuff, thanks for your work as always.
Incredible, right? I'm just glad to see the WNBA not shy away from it -- but embrace it. Clearly she's hot at the box office. The only thing I don't like that is happening is with so many tickets already sold, it's going to price out fans who want to catch a game or two. I mean even balcony seats are selling in minutes right now ... and she's not even on the team yet.
As for expansion, I agree. I'd like to see 16 teams.
