“It feels surreal,” Caitlin Clark expressed when her partnership with Amer’s got her a signature ball collection. And now, when Clark has come so far in the WNBA, breaking rookie assists record, she has been gifted with another collaboration with a $8.1 billion company that might just give us hints about the NBA legend Michael Jordan‘s successor. Though not many details of it are out, Clark hooting on seeing her exquisite line of products has left the fans curious.
Amer’s child company, Wilson, dropped a new hype-up showing Clark on her way to inaugurate another Wilson product on Monday. Clark, in the video, dropped by Wilson on their social media networking site Instagram’s official channel, can be seen wearing a white top with black pants and going to a stage to get a glimpse of what could potentially be her latest ball. But as she opened the box, there wasn’t any glimpse of the ball. The noteworthy thing is that one of the finest women’s basketball players hooted at seeing the product. “We know you’re thinking: “What’s in that box?” Check back 8/20 to find out! 👀,” is the caption on the post.
A lot of fans feel that this might be the end of the Jordan-Wilson era since Clark is the only balling athlete apart from the 61-year-old to have her line of products with Wilson. Even when signing the multi-year deal with Wilson in May, Clark had expressed her happiness since it was a full circle moment for her. During her childhood, Clark used to play with Wilson basketball in her driveway, trying to develop her threes which later on went on to become her signature shot.
After inking the agreement, Clark recollected how she would fight with her brothers to get a hold of the Wilson ball. She revealed that the designs were so “cool” that budding athletes who will have their hands on the ball will love to take it with them to practices or play in their driveway as Clark used to. And with her latest move, it looks like Jordan’s deal with Wilson was a thing of the past when it was decades ago in 1984 shortly after he emerged into the league. The former NCAA Queen had also released her basketball collection in July.
Caitlin Clark released her ball collection with Wilson earlier this year
Clark released the ‘Caitlin Clark EVO NXT 3951 Game Basketball’ in July which has four different balls ranging from $25 to $100. There is a special note on Wilson’s logo that Clark wrote as a child- “Get a basketball scholarship. Play in the WNBA.” This subtly gives away a hint to the young generation of hoopers to fulfill their dream much like how Clark has done.
Clark who closely followed up with the design process was extremely happy seeing the product in different designs and colors. Apart from stating that the moment was surreal and probably pinching her into reality, Clark also enunciated that she “hope(s) it inspires the next generation of boys and girls to pick up a ball and play.”
Much like fans, we are also waiting for Wilson to drop the product soon and share it with their social media followers. As for Clark, she can continue her dominating spree in the WNBA and impact the sport much like how Jordan did during his time.
Stay tuned for more such updates and join us for the exciting second episode of the “Dual Threat Show” as our host BG12 sits down with Georgia Bulldogs star and Mountain West All-Freshman Team Selection, Asia Avinger.
