Much has been made of Caitlin Clark's WNBA salary with the Indiana Fever.
It appears that Nike has her covered.
Per The Athletic's Shams Charania, Clark is finalizing an endorsement deal with Nike that will come with a signature shoe. The deal will also secure an eight-figure contract for Clark, per the report.
Specific numbers weren't reported. But her anticipated contract with Nike will dwarf her WNBA contract that's scheduled to pay her $338,056 over four years. Clark will earn a base salary of $76,535 as a rookie. It's a number that was negotiated long before Clark turned pro as part of the WNBA's collectively bargained rookie wage scale.
