Caitlin Clark has a sizeable bank account and even she knows how crazy expensive season tickets are in the WNBA.
Following a record night for the first-year guard, Clark was all smiles during the postgame interview to discuss the Fever’s 92-75 win over the Seattle Storm on Sunday.

Fever teammate Lexie Hull was asked if she would buy her family season tickets after she scored a career-high 22 points in the win over the Seattle Storm. During the game, her sister and grandma sat courtside.
That prompted Caitlin Clark to jump in and answer, saying, “Those are pretty expensive. It’s like our entire salary to get those. I’m not kidding. We need people to help.”
Caitlin Clark is not lying. Her base wage of $76,535 as a WNBA rookie and four-year contract worth $338,056 are nothing compared to what the guys are making in the NBA.
As of right now, it costs around $1,600 for Indiana Fever season tickets.
She is not hurting for money as she was paid an estimated $3 million in name, image, and likeness money while at Iowa, and before playing a WNBA game, she signed eight-figure deals with Nike and Wilson.
Caitlin Clark Set WNBA Rookie Record Amid Fever Storming Out Of The Gate Since The Olympics
The Indiana Fever are a brand new team with rest since the WNBA’s Paris Olympics break. They won their second consecutive game after a 92–75 home victory over the Seattle Storm on Sunday.
Caitlin Clark had 23 points on this night.
She also earned her 225th career assist in the second quarter, surpassing Ticha Penicheiro’s 1998 record for the most assists by a rookie in WNBA history.
“Ticha’s been a big fan of mine ever since I was in college and somebody that has always been right there to congratulate me or just be somebody that’s offered advice,” Caitlin Clark said in a postgame interview with ESPN’s Holly Rowe. “To pass somebody like her, I’m just forever thankful that she’s been such a legend in our game.”
