Caitlin Clark’s gold watch is priced at $2,295, which is over 1.5 times her weekly WNBA salary of $1,463.78. That means she’d have to play nearly two full weeks of her salary just to afford this one luxury timepiece! Stars like Angel Reese have been really vocal about not getting paid enough in the league, and this just shows how massively underpaid professional women athletes actually are!

If you’re wondering how Caitlin Clark can afford a watch like this, the answer is pretty simple! Athletes like her make a fortune off the court through brand deals, sponsorships, and paid appearances.

But let’s be honest, she deserves everything that she is getting now! Caitlin Clark has not only redefined the women’s basketball game but also elevated its popularity to new heights. It’s not just her contribution on the court that deserves credit, it’s her contribution off it that deserves credit equally as well!
Caitlin Clark: The queen of giving back!
When Iowa announced the retirement of Caitlin Clark’s jersey, she chose to mark the moment by giving back to the community that supported her. Through the Caitlin Clark Foundation, she awarded four $22,000 grants to local Iowa charities that played a pivotal role in her journey. These grants went to the University of Iowa Children’s Hospital, Coralville Community Food Pantry, Boys and Girls Club of the Corridor, and Special Olympics Iowa-East Central.
Clark’s bond with Iowa runs deep, and she made sure to reflect on it in a touching statement, “One of my favorite things about Iowa City is the way the community is connected and how everyone supports each other. It is something I felt during my time here and is important to me that I stay connected with. I am proud to be a part of each of these organizations’ efforts and the meaningful impact they provide for the people of Iowa.”

Caitlin reflected on her own childhood experience with the Scholastic flyer, recalling how empowering and motivating it was to read books, “I remember picking out the books from the Scholastic flyer and how empowering that was for me as a child, and how motivated I was to read.” “I want to help kids have the same experience, to develop their reading skills and open their imaginations to dream big.”
