All that money that Caitlin Clark was supposedly leaving on the table by leaving college for the WNBA?

Well, she just made it all back.

Clark is reportedly nearing a massive, eight-figure deal with Nike for her own signature shoe.

“Indiana Fever rookie phenom Caitlin Clark — the No. 1 pick in Monday’s WNBA draft — is nearing a lucrative, eight-figure endorsement deal with Nike, industry sources tell The Athletic,” the report states. “Clark is expected to receive a signature Nike shoe as well, those sources said. Under Armour and Adidas also made sizable offers to Clark, two industry sources said.”

That report lines up with an earlier one from Rachel Bachman of the Wall Street Journal which explained why Clark is likely to be handsomely paid even after heading to the W.

“Clark’s previous deal with Nike ended after the conclusion of the recently finished college basketball season, which allowed her to hit the market at the peak of her popularity,” The Athletic report continues.

Caitlin Clark Becomes Fourth WNBA Player With Signature Shoe Deal

Clark joins reigning WNBA MVP Breanna Stewart, Elena Delle Donne and Sabrina Ionescu as current women’s players with their own shoe.

Both Delle Donne and Ionescu signed deals with Nike, while Stewart is affiliated with Puma.

Fans are fired up about the news.

Secure that bag, Caitlin!
