Dwyane Wade Reaches Out to 21 YO Caitlin Clark With Special Message

Due to the brilliance of the likes of Caitlin Clark, and simmering rivalries, women’s college basketball is quickly becoming a must-watch. Further, a determined effort to promote the game from legends could add to the game’s appeal. For a casual fan, seeing a mainstream name like Dwyane Wade bring attention to the sport can be a major draw.

So, the 3-time Champion’s endorsement of Caitlin Clark is sure to bring new eyes to the 21-year-old phenom.

Since last season, the women’s college basketball scene has seen a dramatic upturn. Between splendid talent and genuine rivalries, fans could be witnessing the Larry Bird-Magic Johnson kind of revolution for the entire sport.

In the meanwhile, an endorsement from one of the all-time greats is certainly spurring the movement. While his brother takes over the player development department, D-Wade has his focus on the women’s collegiate scene.

However, his focus is without any bias. Instead, it’s just because of the sheer quality of hoops on offer, according to the Miami Heat legend himself. “I’m drinking some Wade Rose Wine and watching women’s college hoops! Caitlin Clark is simply good at basketball! That’s all…”

With the best highlight of the past week coming from opening night in the NCAA women’s tournament, it is hard to find flaws in Wade’s argument. Can the league truly evolve into its juggernaut?

With Caitlin and her nemesis/friend Angel Reese leading the charge, perhaps women’s basketball could find its Magic-Bird moment.

Caitlin vs Reese or the modern-day Bird vs Magic?

The similarities are too many to not notice. While the NBA was a middling sport, with Finals matches appearing on TV pre-taped, a breakthrough was for it to truly ascend the national ranks. Thankfully, that came with the arrival of Magic Johnson and Larry Bird.

While other players have done a lot to revolutionize or globalize the sport, no two players changed the trajectory of the entire sport quite like those two. Their rivalry, right from the NCAA level, caught the attention of the entire country. Along with that attention, came popularity and the league transformed into the mainstream market it is today.

In a similar vein, with Reese and Clark garnering similar levels of attention to an otherwise non-famous sport, they could be the second coming of those two legends. If so, then the women’s league is in very capable hands.
