Caitlin Clark’s Sensational WNBA Season Makes $161.98 Billion Worth Behemoth Sit Up and Take Notice

There’s no denying WNBA star Caitlin Clark’s superstardom. The Indiana Fever star has reached new heights after moving to professional basketball, inviting millions of viewers to the league and its popularity.

In fact, it’s not just the sports world that Clark is impressing. The WNBA icon has caught the attention of John Waldron — President and COO at Goldman Sachs.

Goldman Sachs President Impressed by Caitlin Clark’s WNBA Stardom

Waldron, heading a $161.98 billion worth bank (via Forbes), couldn’t stop highlighting Clark’s success, and how she has brought the WNBA to new heights in 2024.

“Like so many sports fans, I have been watching the growth of the WNBA (Women’s National Basketball Association), led in part by Indiana Fever star Caitlin Clark. Her success on the court has won attention not only for her own talents but also for the business of women’s sports, inspiring a new generation of athletes and fans alike,” Waldron wrote.

The company hosted Clark at Goldman Sachs, discussing her on and off-court success with clients and a few colleagues.

Caitlin, speaking on the league, was confident about the 2025 season bringing more success: “We’ve played a few games in NBA arenas and have sold them out. I think you’ll see more of that this season. Players dream about those moments, and we need to build on this momentum.”

Furthermore, Waldron concluded that they are  ‘excited’ to see how the 23-year-old progresses, appreciating the time she spent with them.

ESPN Picks Fever Preseason Game Starting WNBA Phenom Caitlin Clark

Another proof of Clark’s stardom is ESPN picking a WNBA preseason game for the young talent.

This move proves to be strategic, since a 2024 preseason game between the Minnesota Lynx and the Chicago Sky garnered over two million views from a fan’s live stream. This 2025 game will take place between Fever and Brazil’s national team, making it a first-of-its-kind televised exhibition clash.

Furthermore, this will mark Clark’s iconic return to Iowa’s Carver-Hawkeye Arena. Fans are eager to see the Fever star play at her alma mater, selling out the arena well in advance.

Additionally, Clark’s second season in the WNBA is also likely to give rise to a new Paige Bueckers-Clark rivalry. The 2025 No. 1 overall draft pick by the Dallas Wings is already deemed as a franchise player, fans pitting her against Clark and her team.

While WNBA GMs and fans are aware of how special Clark’s impact was, there’s no denying the firepower Bueckers brings to the table.

Following a Wings-Chicago Sky game on May 2nd, Indiana will face Brazil on May 4th.
