After witnessing her immaculate skills on court, Nike approached the dynamic No.22 of the Hawkeyes. Soon after they went on to sign an NIL deal with the 6 ft point guard in October 2022. According to ESPN, Clark was earning a little over $1 million before she signed the contract with the sports giant. Consequently, her earnings skyrocketed to a seven-figure mark after the conclusion of her deal.

There is no doubt that Caitlin Clark has had a lasting impact on Iowa’s college basketball program.
