Its no WNBA SHe will be playing against men Personally that is dumb if you ask me Either the guys will be getting foul every time they tried to defend her Or guys will be nervous to defend her Her stats will go down in the Pros Even though it will be lower pay It is reason that it is a male league and a women league

See Clark is one women It is others teams 😅 So basically we know one team will make money but they to see multiple teams gain the support
They could offer her $10 million and she still won’t do it. Why? Because former NBA men would literally body her every game. She would average 4 points, 5 turnovers. Her image would be forever tarnished. She would have her hands full with a championship highschool men’s team, Nevermind former NBA players

@user-gs9sq8ox1c it's for 12 games a year. Who knows what her actual contract in the Big3 would be like if she actually took the offer and played there. The max the WNBA would offer her as a rookie is 100k, and that's pushing it. Caitlin will never be happy in the WNBA, and she's already made enemies there from coaches to other players. Why would she play for a league that already hates her.
I am glad that Rebecca made the point that the WNBA players do not need to get jealous of her because she is the way they are going to start getting more benefits and pay in the future.
How... I'll watch her but not the rest of the league, I'm thinking that's going to be most peoples take.. is she going to bring enough money that the WNBA won't need revenue from the NBA?
And what if she struggles vs these retired male players??? Cuz if you’ve never been to a Big3 game you don’t understand how physical it is. Not to be insulting but if she can’t tango with those guys it sets back the perception of women’s basketball that she along with many others have tried to uplift for 2-3 years now
@@sakthithanigai5036 So what if she can’t handle playing with them she would be 5 million dollars richer. And it won’t affect her once she goes back to play in the WNBA if anything she’ll be better.
Typical... College basketball would be much better if players were forced to stay 3 or 4 years or were dissuaded from jumping to the pros because of the prospect of failure. Nowadays, these boys are using their coaches and schools as platforms to make the jump. That's why I pull for teams like Northwestern and Yale that do things the right way.
@@Zenigundam college basketball might be better. But it isn't necessarily best for its players. Some of these athletes have the potential to earn millions of dollars each year while they are fit. also shes already a senior
Between the wnba and endorsements she’ll make more than that. Her endorsements probably reach that now! Her people will look to build a brand not a money grab
“lets destroy your fame and credibilty by having you get beatdown by washed up NBA has beens and dudes who never made the league, to prop up our dead league no one watches, could name a team, or any players”
Exactly. Rising tides lift all boats. Should Caitlin pan out in the W & become the female equivalent 2 Steph Curry, everybody gonna eat in the long run 💵👆
Current wnba players checking their ego will never happen. Have you heard these women? Least mature league in the world, and that’s an incredible accomplishment with how childish most leagues are.
@@user-yi1ml5ol5e I agree with most of what you said, but I put Caitlin Clark in the Magic Johnson class of player, now we just need a Larry bird type as her foil in the W and they can save the league from the brink. Just like Magic and Bird did for the NBA in the 80's.
Since I am seeing this video after the game between Iowa and LSU, that game did exactly that. They had a viewership of 12+ million people and the NBA with LeBron in primetime had less than half of that at about 5.7 million if I remember right. So Caitlin Clark can raise numbers and has done so. If you look at Women's college basketball, they play in smaller arena's on campus, this year at Iowa the women's team played in the same arena as the men on campus and sold it out consistently, plus crowds on the road were much larger when Caitlin was there to play against that school. To say Caitlin wont draw numbers she already has and will continue to do so.
Honestly if Caitlin wants to play with them she should go for it. Ice Cube and the Big 3 wouldn't have offered 5 million if they weren't sure they would make that back purely based on her presence in the league. Caitlin, Angel, Page, Juju and a bunch of other young women in college ball are gonna make the WNBA massively popular in the next few years and they all deserve a bag
Cube missed an opportunity to send an offer to 2 college players, or heck, 2 college and 2 WNBA players a short term contract in the Big3. Instead he hopped on the Caitlin bandwagon, and now it's caused backlash he offered a deal to only Caitlin. She will bring in media hype, but could get smashed in these 3x3.. her male opponents will be faster and stronger, unless they have hush-hush orders to go easy and let her rain her deep 3 pointers. Ice could have offered to angel reese and others, I think he missed an opportunity
wnba will never be popular. they must get INFINITELY better at the game for it to be relevant. there are more skill in high school jv teams than the wnba.
If you are a competitive athlete, who has already broken records, you want to brake more. Three on 3 will not give you that. So do you want full pockets now or your name to live forever...and ten years down the road her pockets will be FULLER breaking records...long game vs short game. Too many choose the latter...
@@patbenz4327 Yes, this. If she goes to the Big3 and does poorly it could certainly affect her value (and the value of women's sports), especially when it comes to endorsements. Gatorade or whoever else she reps will not want footage out there of her being dominated. Footage travels fast these days and everyone is watching her. I'm not saying that will happen for sure, but it's definitely a risk and something she should consider. A quick 5 million sounds great, but I would not say that there is nothing to lose.
Thousand percent agree with Rebecca Lobo in that Caitlin will be the driving force for larger salaries and better accomodations for the WNBA league wide.
@@yahinicvthe league makes more money by getting better TV deals and tickets sales, and eyeballs,their league is up for TV negotiations in another year, if caitlin significantly increases eyeballs and ticket sales, then the wnba will get bigger TV deals which leads to bigger salaries it's all dependent on caitlin living up to her hype if she can do that, the wnba will get a level better with everything, the nba was on the verge of bankruptcy after the 70's, magic and bird saved the nba by living up to their hype, not saying Clark will have that same impact, but if she lives up to the hype her impact can be enough to get these ladies bigger salaries, now more Clark's gotta appear to get these ladies those million dollar contracts they all desire, but Clark can help Jumpstart that process
I know a lot of people are looking at the money. But the Big 3 is also all men. I know girls play against guys in rec centers across the country but this is a different story. Are we really going to say that Caitlin Clark can guard a former NBA player? Those guys are a bit older but they're not that old. Or she can separate and get her shot off at 6 feet when she's going against guys who are several inches taller? Can we stick with guys playing against guys and girls playing against girls? I get the intrigue. She's a shooter. $5m is a lot of money (especially with the WNBA salaries). But money isn't everything. And she is making a ton in endorsement money and can do so long into the future. But I'd like to see her take a stand and say no thank you, I'm a woman I want to play against women. That would do more for women's sports and women's basketball than her playing against guys. In my opinion at least. And she doesn't have to take the risk of taking a quick check, and potentially losing. And losing hard. And then going to the WNBA without as much momentum.
Well said.. she’s a great player against women. The best obviously. But we all remember what happened to Cheryl Miller back in the day. The outcome would not be positive for her and the whole idea of women in men’s sports leagues.
This is why I'm saying she won't go. It will hurt women's sports. There are so many deluded people who think Clark, who is like 5'11, 140 pounds, can play with the men. She can't. She would be marginal in a high school boys varsity game, if that. This is not a legit offer, it is a TV stunt, it is a novelty clown show, it is the same as when Vanderbilt put that girl out there to squib a ball, or when that other college put a girl out there to kick a PAT, and when that girl "sacked" a QB in a college game. Clark will not do this, she is smarter than that.
No, she wouldn't be able to do that unless the WNBA changed their rule that disallows players from playing in two leagues in the same season. This has been talked about by WBNA ex-players and coaches.
It's all up to Caitlin whether or not to accept that offer, but if I was her friend, I'd advise against her accepting Ice Cube's offer. Sure it's more money for her, but she doesn't belong in a league with all men physically stronger and taller than her cause it's too easy for her to get accidentally injured by one of them. She's already earning millions just from NIL deals alone. So she's got enough money to live off of for the rest of her life bas long as she doesn't over-spend. She's got a boyfriend too who can also help provide financially for her if he wants to. So she's clearly not financially struggling.
How's the WNBA not going to allow their players to play in other leagues when most of them have to fly overseas in the off season to make a living? Let Caitlyn get her bag and play in the WNBA after.
The WNBA season and the Big 3 season is at the same time. They don't allow them to play for another league during their but in off season they can play anywhere.
Well this is also a new rule to prevent women from playing overseas and in the WNBA which most women do to make a living wage. Many of the euro leagues seasons overlap with the pre-season training campus. Lots of vets would miss conditioning but come back for games or even miss the first couple of games. The league thought it would be better to force women to stay in the US but there isn’t enough teams for the talent coming out so of course women will play overseas
Do the math, $5 mil compared to $70k per year. Cait has the leverage, as Indiana has already sold an increase of season tickets. Plus, the big factor, $5mil sets herself up for life! She gets injured at Indiana she ends up with nothing.
her net worth right now is 3.1 mil from endorsements. She’s a vacuum for offers and endorsements. In the next 18 months she’ll pass 10 mil net worth, even paying an average 15% to her agent.
@@diseasedpanda7418 how it works is, if corporations promise ad money to WNBA games, the WNBA can pay more, and I know they are promising more money. It's why Cube offered his money. You need to research how much money Caitlin has made TV thus far
Rebecca says she doesn't think Caitlin would seriously consider the contract. Why not? Even if she were able to negotiate a non-rookie contract and make the top WNBA salary of $205,303 from day #1, it would take her 25 YEARS to make $5 million. And it's way, way, WAY worse than that. After taxes, $5 mil is $2.7 mil. If she lives off of the $700K and invests the $2mil in a fund that matches the S&P 500, 25 years later, that's a shade under $20 mil!!! Now, I'm sure she's going to make millions in endorsements, but she'll make that either way. It's 10 games for $5 mil!!! She can join the WNBA next year if they refuse to let her do both.
Team USA needs to make sure they put Caitlin on the Olympic Team. Everyone wants to see her play in the Olympics. Would drive the ratings through the roof!!
Caitlin Clark looks more and more like Bird and Magic in the late 70s. The NBA was in the dumps, and those 2 changed everything. She could do that for the WNBA, not exactly all by herself, but as a massive spark
lmfao this girl will not get a massive new following for the wnba, seriously props to women for making it pro but we wants to see no dunking, barey any cross overs and low scores?
@@pariss1111 true but what has the nba done to elevate its status? the wnba simply wants the same notoriety because they play in a leagued named after the nba, name one woman's sports where the ladys are making anywhere near the male counter parts? that has nothing to do with skill or talent but everything to do with sales.
@@darrelldaugherty4230 Easy, Serena. I’m not a big tennis fan but if I watch it the womens’ game is better. The men’s game is like Jai alai now, too fast like a video game. Serena is great to watch, dominant, exciting, a star. Caitlin is The biggest draw in college sports, man or woman- outside of Div 1 college football. I plan in my schedule to watch her games, figure out time, day and station, bc it’s fun and exciting. And I’m in Boston.
@@darrelldaugherty4230this isn't about the women making the same as men, these women mainly wanna make enough money so that they don't gotta go overseas after the season to make decent money, and Clark if she lives up to the hype cam definitely be that spark eyeball and ticket sales will get the ladies more money, bigger TV deals and ticket sales equals bigger salaries, if Clark lives up to the hype, she'll bring in more viewers and more ticket sales, which will be the wnbas leverage when negotiating new TV deals in 2025, everything is based on can she live up to the hype, starting day 1, just like magic and bird did from day 1
@@MrDarkBright you just being a hater. Right now women’s college basketball has more viewers than men’s college basketball. If he got Caitlin Clark and other college stars to play with the wnba stars he could make a league that easily gets more viewership than the wnba. Plus I think 3 on 3 would highlight their skillset more than 5 on 5. Ice Cube knows how to run a business, he could do it.
@@anthonymalcolmcalan not a hater, I’m a realest. If it was a good idea or even great than I believe Ice Cube would have done it already. Ask yourself this, Would it honestly be more entertaining than women playing against men?
@@MrDarkBright no he wouldn’t have done it already, because timing is everything. That’s the reason I don’t think you’re being a realist. The women’s game is growing, the numbers are higher than they’ve ever been. 5 years ago that would be a terrible decision for ice cube based on the ratings. Now the women’s game has more stars and stars grow the brand. Caitlin Clark is a bonafide star, people will pay to watch her play no matter what league she is in. It actually makes sense now.
While Caitlin would have a huge impact, IMO, on the WNBA, I would suggest to her that she take the 5MM. Here are some reasons why: 1) the risk of a career ending injury from simply jealous WNBA players (although it's hard to imagine a lady ever being jealous of another lady and trying to deliberately do her harm), 2) the difference between playing college ball and moving to the pros. Okay, the WNBA isn't on a par with the NBA, simply based on the size and physical capabilities of the ladies when you compare them to someone like Shaq, Larry Bird, or Michael Jordan. BUT, the fact that of all the lady college players in the country, the WNBA has pulled the strongest, fastest, best means that Caitlyn will be facing a higher level of player on average than she's been accustomed to playing against. 3) BUilding a team like the one she's been playing with has taken years. Take for example: Joe Burrow had a solid team at LSU, with which he spent months practicing with during the off-season, and they did the impossible - an undefeated season and a national championship. His line protected him, he and his receivers could read each others' minds, and they ultimately became unstoppable. Not so much at Cincinnati. Then there's Tom Brady and Gronk and Edelman. Tampa built a team around Tom, and he delivered. Will the WNBA do that for Caitlyn? 4) How much money is any team in the WNBA going to be able to offer Caitlyn and if they came anyplace close to the 5MM offer, what is that going to do to the rest of the players? How much are they going to demand? SO, the short is this: Take the 5MM, demand a "no cut clause". Get the 5MM in escrow so that she gets it even if she never plays a minute of bball. Get all the outside endorsements she can, and make sure she owns ALL the rights to anything she does. No limitations. No requirements to push the name of the team she plays for, and no limitations on using the team name as part of her outside endorsements - in fact required remuneration for any association between herself and the name of the team she represents. But that's just my take. I could be wrong.
@@trappinout18 not at all.. pure sarcasm. i'm finishing out my life with wife #3 and have six daughters. nothing more likely to harm a woman than another woman.
Caitlin Clark's mind is amazing in the fact that she doesn't play the game for the money, she plays the game because she loves the game. She won't accept the deal because she loves the game too much to where she wants to see it grow even more. Ice Cube's deal, while entertaining and more financially beneficial from her. will not help grow the game, only distract it. I like that humble self of her. Don't take the deal, grow the game and revolutionize the WNBA.
It's got nothing to do with love for the game. She won't take the offer because unlike her fans she knows men and women's basketball are two different animals.
God, I hate when American sports media downplays the star power of Messi or Ronaldo . Jay is an idiot for even mentioning Messi in the same sentence as her, Messi raised Inter Miami season ticket price 1000% after rumors of him joining them. I like CC she doesn't have a fraction of the star power Messi has and i don't think shes saving the league. If I'm CC, I'm definitely taking that offer because she is never gonna touch that amount playing in the WNBA . I think she would have had more leverage if this wasn't leaked because now other Big 3 players might feel like they ain't getting paid enough, but idk the salary situation in that league
Not to be a conspiracy theorist, but I always imagined they never talk about the soccer GOATs since they can't capitalize on the hype(ESPN doesn't get European soccer games)
Caitlin ALONG WITH Angel Reese, Rickea Jackson, Deja Kelly, Cordoza and other big crowd-drawing NCAA women’s basketball players will bring big money and large crowds to WNBA. Hopefully, all of these players will go to WNBA for fans to continue following them even if it means lowering the talent to allow them to play. These college stars are way ,ore interesting than those in the WNBA, currently and in years past. They have star power…the “it” factor. Let them play and/or let them join the Big 3 league. Let’s GEAUX! 🏀💃
-Could she get drafted by Indiana and not sign. -Sign the contract with the Big3, play her max of 10 games. -Then sign with Indiana, in the late portion of the WNBA season.
She’s gonna make more on endorsements in WNBA because companies are gonna want to keep up the college hype. I don’t know if they’re gonna make her the face of the league but they’re gonna want to push her as a star
somebody suggest Ice Cube start an all womens' Big 3. then pay her possibly 2.5 million & use the rest of the budget to pay all the top women to come and join her in the Big 3. that would be dope. How about guys vs girls or a mixed team tournament during their all star break! that would be something to see! Hopefully the women like the idea as well. Make it fair. We don't the women to get hurt playing with the guys. then go to the WNBA after they pay them what the women are worth. A few hundred-thousand is not enough for good, talented women.
@@doughernandez7740 I thought that would be beetween Seasons? Like when schoolkids have 2 Months freetime and then she would play only once a Week for 10 Weeks. Wasn't that the Reason why Cube said, that there would be only 2 Games witch would conflict with Games in the WNBA?
The wnba and big 3 should be desperate enough to take the chance lol she is such a huge star and they need the ratings! Break the or change the rules for her if it means manifesting the league
It's interesting that the WNBA players have to be warned not to cross the line when playing against the person who will give them the visibility and respect they so crave. 😂
This would be a huge mistake for Caitlyn she would be targeted by the players (which are dudes) not other women. They would resent the fact that she’s making 5-6 million for one season. She will be limited to just taking jump shots she’s not beating anyone off the dribble! This would be a bad move… Now if the big three were smart they’d start a women’s league, offer her and Angel 2-3 million and really make history!
The guys wouldnt hurt a hair on her head. Men aren't stupid, nobody is going paycho, they'll be fair with her. Nobody in their right mind wsnts to hurtva woman. Even though she won't get a shot off
@spirit13the1st6 she would be a complete liability. The stakes are to high my friend . If they were playing for bragging rights maybe lol but of course you're kidding
@@Teeman44 you must have never seen the BIG 3? Lol. A lot of those guys playing were role players and NBA underachievers; they’re not going easy on a girl potentially making $5 million for a season. That’s probably more than one entire team in the BIG 3
I know one thing the WNBA better get their act together and start paying these athletes because more of this type of stuff will continue to come up and the college players will continue to remain in college because of more money in the NIL. The women’s game is in a great place with incoming talent in the next few years. The WNBA better wake up and take care of them and pay them and chartered flights, etc..
Okay so Caitlin's choices are accept 5 million from am organization that makes money or make a fraction of 5 million playing for a league that loses money every season. So what is there to choose? Also how do you calculate revenue share for a league that loses revenue?
@@pariss1111 No not even close. I support the WNBA. I want it to succeed but right now unfortunately without being subsidized by the NBA they're deep in the red and that's just a fact.
@@asceticblur I promise you the nba was on the verge of bankruptcy in the late 70s. It seems infallible now. But it was Bird and Magic, and then Jordan that created the new Nba
That’s like sayin “Elon musk is trying to buy twitter cuz Tesla is failing” when he just has enough money to do extra stuff cuz his initial investment is making money
Not sure why folks think Clark will take 5 million dollars like it’s candy. There’s more to lose if she takes this offer. Clark was not born yesterday. Also, Big 3 is not Big 10 women’s basketball, she’ll be playing with a bung of tall, nearly retired dudes and she only has half a court. It’s like having baseball cut to a pitcher, first baser, and one outfielder. There will be other offers. This is Ice Cube’s time to advertise his brand, this is all this is.
Give him a break I think this is the first time he's done anything other than Gameday since they broke up Max Jwill and Keyshawn - and JJ took over his place as the smart Duke guy on GETUP and FirsTake
J. Will came at this with all types of variables and business gems. Rebecca talking about the media deal expiring with benefits dependent upon viewership and ratings is another fantastic point. Caitlin is looking to be the catalyst for women basketball players to finally get paid.
indeed. every person talking about "the bag" are greedy and have no scruples. molly during this segment exposed herself for the prostitute that she clearly is.
She makes 5 million from endorsements/NIL and will probably get even more endorsements, going to the WNBA is the right choice. Plus why would should want to play against some grown old men when she already gets a bag??😐
You all don’t get it. She will get DESTROYED. Embarrassed on a level we have never seen. It would RUIN her image forever. She will make more money in endorsements playing with the ladies.

“lets destroy your fame and credibilty by having you get beatdown by washed up NBA has beens and dudes who never made the league, to prop up our dead league no one watches, could name a team, or any players”
What Rebecca said at the end, in summary was a nice way of saying “current wnba players check your ego, Clark is the way y’all get paid”
Exactly. Rising tides lift all boats. Should Caitlin pan out in the W & become the female equivalent 2 Steph Curry, everybody gonna eat in the long run 💵👆
Current wnba players checking their ego will never happen. Have you heard these women?
Least mature league in the world, and that’s an incredible accomplishment with how childish most leagues are.
It’s the gayest league in American sports it’s not a knock it’s a fact and they won’t be very welcoming to Clark because she’s not like them
The problem with the WNBA is the product on the court. The Big 3 changes that. Clark to big3 will end the wnba.
@@user-yi1ml5ol5e I agree with most of what you said, but I put Caitlin Clark in the Magic Johnson class of player, now we just need a Larry bird type as her foil in the W and they can save the league from the brink. Just like Magic and Bird did for the NBA in the 80's.
One of Caitlin’s March Madness games probably have more viewership and ticket sales from all wnba post season games including the finals.
Since I am seeing this video after the game between Iowa and LSU, that game did exactly that. They had a viewership of 12+ million people and the NBA with LeBron in primetime had less than half of that at about 5.7 million if I remember right. So Caitlin Clark can raise numbers and has done so. If you look at Women's college basketball, they play in smaller arena's on campus, this year at Iowa the women's team played in the same arena as the men on campus and sold it out consistently, plus crowds on the road were much larger when Caitlin was there to play against that school. To say Caitlin wont draw numbers she already has and will continue to do so.
Honestly if Caitlin wants to play with them she should go for it. Ice Cube and the Big 3 wouldn't have offered 5 million if they weren't sure they would make that back purely based on her presence in the league. Caitlin, Angel, Page, Juju and a bunch of other young women in college ball are gonna make the WNBA massively popular in the next few years and they all deserve a bag
There all great college players but they are not gona Change the WNBA that league is terrible and looses money smh Lol
Cube missed an opportunity to send an offer to 2 college players, or heck, 2 college and 2 WNBA players a short term contract in the Big3. Instead he hopped on the Caitlin bandwagon, and now it's caused backlash he offered a deal to only Caitlin. She will bring in media hype, but could get smashed in these 3x3.. her male opponents will be faster and stronger, unless they have hush-hush orders to go easy and let her rain her deep 3 pointers. Ice could have offered to angel reese and others, I think he missed an opportunity
@@Defender78how do yk he haven’t ?

Man I love Rebecca Lobo!!!! Was an amazing player in her day, one of the best to lace em up
Yeah, Lobo was a beast 🔥🔥
She absolutely should do it. She has nothing to lose and everything to gain from that opportunity
It might backfire for women's basketball. Bcs people will see just how much better men are. They will completely dominate her.
If you are a competitive athlete, who has already broken records, you want to brake more. Three on 3 will not give you that. So do you want full pockets now or your name to live forever...and ten years down the road her pockets will be FULLER breaking records...long game vs short game. Too many choose the latter...
@@patbenz4327 Yes, this. If she goes to the Big3 and does poorly it could certainly affect her value (and the value of women's sports), especially when it comes to endorsements. Gatorade or whoever else she reps will not want footage out there of her being dominated. Footage travels fast these days and everyone is watching her. I'm not saying that will happen for sure, but it's definitely a risk and something she should consider. A quick 5 million sounds great, but I would not say that there is nothing to lose.
Name a BiG3 team or any give us any fact about the league? Now ask tourself, why did I believe what they said with absolutely no research?
Your community doent know how to build value, lets stop playing pretend😂

Thousand percent agree with Rebecca Lobo in that Caitlin will be the driving force for larger salaries and better accomodations for the WNBA league wide.
The WNBA is already hating on Caitlin Clark
I don't believe
that, in order for the WNBA players to get more money, the league has to MAKE more money
Rebecca is 100% wrong. Caitlin needs to take the offer which has absolutely nothing to do with the wnba.
@@yahinicvthe league makes more money by getting better TV deals and tickets sales, and eyeballs,their league is up for TV negotiations in another year, if caitlin significantly increases eyeballs and ticket sales, then the wnba will get bigger TV deals which leads to bigger salaries it's all dependent on caitlin living up to her hype if she can do that, the wnba will get a level better with everything, the nba was on the verge of bankruptcy after the 70's, magic and bird saved the nba by living up to their hype, not saying Clark will have that same impact, but if she lives up to the hype her impact can be enough to get these ladies bigger salaries, now more Clark's gotta appear to get these ladies those million dollar contracts they all desire, but Clark can help Jumpstart that process
I know a lot of people are looking at the money. But the Big 3 is also all men. I know girls play against guys in rec centers across the country but this is a different story. Are we really going to say that Caitlin Clark can guard a former NBA player? Those guys are a bit older but they're not that old. Or she can separate and get her shot off at 6 feet when she's going against guys who are several inches taller? Can we stick with guys playing against guys and girls playing against girls? I get the intrigue. She's a shooter. $5m is a lot of money (especially with the WNBA salaries). But money isn't everything. And she is making a ton in endorsement money and can do so long into the future. But I'd like to see her take a stand and say no thank you, I'm a woman I want to play against women. That would do more for women's sports and women's basketball than her playing against guys. In my opinion at least. And she doesn't have to take the risk of taking a quick check, and potentially losing. And losing hard. And then going to the WNBA without as much momentum.
You hit the nail on the head “not all money is good money”. She should only take it if there is a separate league for women
Well said.. she’s a great player against women. The best obviously. But we all remember what happened to Cheryl Miller back in the day. The outcome would not be positive for her and the whole idea of women in men’s sports leagues.
This is why I'm saying she won't go. It will hurt women's sports. There are so many deluded people who think Clark, who is like 5'11, 140 pounds, can play with the men. She can't. She would be marginal in a high school boys varsity game, if that. This is not a legit offer, it is a TV stunt, it is a novelty clown show, it is the same as when Vanderbilt put that girl out there to squib a ball, or when that other college put a girl out there to kick a PAT, and when that girl "sacked" a QB in a college game. Clark will not do this, she is smarter than that.
I would take it + its just 10 games. Plus being able to play in the wnba
Right - rare to get your cake and get to eat it too.
No, she wouldn't be able to do that unless the WNBA changed their rule that disallows players from playing in two leagues in the same season. This has been talked about by WBNA ex-players and coaches.
@@ytx2218 Then she just plays the next season. **shrugs**
Lobo made a great point,, its pulling fans to the seats increasing sales, trickling in to the player,, its like what ronda said in MMA
It's all up to Caitlin whether or not to accept that offer, but if I was her friend, I'd advise against her accepting Ice Cube's offer. Sure it's more money for her, but she doesn't belong in a league with all men physically stronger and taller than her cause it's too easy for her to get accidentally injured by one of them. She's already earning millions just from NIL deals alone. So she's got enough money to live off of for the rest of her life bas long as she doesn't over-spend. She's got a boyfriend too who can also help provide financially for her if he wants to. So she's clearly not financially struggling.
Them dudes in the league are not going to be cool with someone they're better than making 10x more money than them.
thats why it would be fun those dudes would not take it easy bc she's making more
They're retired players they alresdy got their bag of money in the NBA and endorsements lol
Nah, it’s business. They get it.. they OGs lol
@@Dogtraining-de3zm most them dudes didn't make crazy money in the league
Rebecca Lobo had some INTERESTING INFORMATION.
How's the WNBA not going to allow their players to play in other leagues when most of them have to fly overseas in the off season to make a living? Let Caitlyn get her bag and play in the WNBA after.
The WNBA season and the Big 3 season is at the same time. They don't allow them to play for another league during their but in off season they can play anywhere.
@@rickytib they need to make some amendments to that rule.
Well this is also a new rule to prevent women from playing overseas and in the WNBA which most women do to make a living wage. Many of the euro leagues seasons overlap with the pre-season training campus. Lots of vets would miss conditioning but come back for games or even miss the first couple of games. The league thought it would be better to force women to stay in the US but there isn’t enough teams for the talent coming out so of course women will play overseas
Do the math, $5 mil compared to $70k per year.
Cait has the leverage, as Indiana has already sold an increase of season tickets.
Plus, the big factor, $5mil sets herself up for life!
She gets injured at Indiana she ends up with nothing.
$500k a game, big 3 only plays 10 games a season. I would just play in this league and not even consider the wnba.
She’s already a millionaire.
She'll be net worth 10 mil in '25 without doing Big3
@@pariss1111 That answers it all.
Then play in the Big3 and make another $5mil and she is set for life!
her net worth right now is 3.1 mil from endorsements. She’s a vacuum for offers and endorsements. In the next 18 months she’ll pass 10 mil net worth, even paying an average 15% to her agent.
Love you Rebecca❤ you made perfect sense.
Molly ready to do something strange for some change
Cube just gave Caitlin the leverage to get all WNBA women a pay raise in 2024. Beleive me, she will not waste this opportunity.
Cant raise pay if you dont have the money until the league actually turns a profit salaries aren't going up
@@diseasedpanda7418 If the stars right now suck it up and let corporate media send them the gift of this new spotlight, they will have the money.
@@diseasedpanda7418 how it works is, if corporations promise ad money to WNBA games, the WNBA can pay more, and I know they are promising more money. It's why Cube offered his money. You need to research how much money Caitlin has made TV thus far
WNBA doesn't deserve her more than Cube's offer.
So many great analysts for the women's game, especially Draya C., but who is better than Rebecca!?!?❤
Rebecca is super sharp on these matters. great to have her perspective
Rebecca says she doesn't think Caitlin would seriously consider the contract. Why not? Even if she were able to negotiate a non-rookie contract and make the top WNBA salary of $205,303 from day #1, it would take her 25 YEARS to make $5 million. And it's way, way, WAY worse than that. After taxes, $5 mil is $2.7 mil. If she lives off of the $700K and invests the $2mil in a fund that matches the S&P 500, 25 years later, that's a shade under $20 mil!!! Now, I'm sure she's going to make millions in endorsements, but she'll make that either way. It's 10 games for $5 mil!!! She can join the WNBA next year if they refuse to let her do both.
Team USA needs to make sure they put Caitlin on the Olympic Team. Everyone wants to see her play in the Olympics. Would drive the ratings through the roof!!
I read today that she's already been invited to next week's Olympic team training camp, but it overlaps with the Final Four.......
@philb.1502 Not really. The spice is in the USA for the casual fans like me which is where the big numbers came from.
She can literally do for the wnba what larry bird did for the nba. People forgot no one was really watching the nba like that until bird and magic
The WNBA has to come through and market her. Who has more views right now between the two?
Thanks
So we just going to ignore what Molly said????? That’s wild😂😂😂😂😂
Caitlin Clark looks more and more like Bird and Magic in the late 70s. The NBA was in the dumps, and those 2 changed everything. She could do that for the WNBA, not exactly all by herself, but as a massive spark
lmfao this girl will not get a massive new following for the wnba, seriously props to women for making it pro but we wants to see no dunking, barey any cross overs and low scores?
@@darrelldaugherty4230 Similar was said about the nba late 70s. Horrible attendance, boring, bleeding money, going under.

@@darrelldaugherty4230 Easy, Serena. I’m not a big tennis fan but if I watch it the womens’ game is better. The men’s game is like Jai alai now, too fast like a video game.

@@darrelldaugherty4230this isn't about the women making the same as men, these women mainly wanna make enough money so that they don't gotta go overseas after the season to make decent money, and Clark if she lives up to the hype cam definitely be that spark eyeball and ticket sales will get the ladies more money, bigger TV deals and ticket sales equals bigger salaries, if Clark lives up to the hype, she'll bring in more viewers and more ticket sales, which will be the wnbas leverage when negotiating new TV deals in 2025, everything is based on can she live up to the hype, starting day 1, just like magic and bird did from day 1
Honestly I think he should make a big 3 women’s league. With his marketability he can probably be bigger than the WNBA

@@MrDarkBright you just being a hater. Right now women’s college basketball has more viewers than men’s college basketball. If he got Caitlin Clark and other college stars to play with the wnba stars he could make a league that easily gets more viewership than the wnba.

@@anthonymalcolmcalan not a hater, I’m a realest. If it was a good idea or even great than I believe Ice Cube would have done it already.

@@MrDarkBright no he wouldn’t have done it already, because timing is everything. That’s the reason I don’t think you’re being a realist. The women’s game is growing, the numbers are higher than they’ve ever been. 5 years ago that would be a terrible decision for ice cube based on the ratings. Now the women’s game has more stars and stars grow the brand. Caitlin Clark is a bonafide star, people will pay to watch her play no matter what league she is in. It actually makes sense now.
What’s that song by the Steve Miller band? -Go on, take the money and run….
Shoo Molly ready to jump ship😂😂😂
While Caitlin would have a huge impact, IMO, on the WNBA, I would suggest to her that she take the 5MM. Here are some reasons why: 1) the risk of a career ending injury from simply jealous WNBA players (although it's hard to imagine a lady ever being jealous of another lady and trying to deliberately do her harm), 2) the difference between playing college ball and moving to the pros. Okay, the WNBA isn't on a par with the NBA, simply based on the size and physical capabilities of the ladies when you compare them to someone like Shaq, Larry Bird, or Michael Jordan. BUT, the fact that of all the lady college players in the country, the WNBA has pulled the strongest, fastest, best means that Caitlyn will be facing a higher level of player on average than she's been accustomed to playing against. 3) BUilding a team like the one she's been playing with has taken years. Take for example: Joe Burrow had a solid team at LSU, with which he spent months practicing with during the off-season, and they did the impossible - an undefeated season and a national championship. His line protected him, he and his receivers could read each others' minds, and they ultimately became unstoppable. Not so much at Cincinnati. Then there's Tom Brady and Gronk and Edelman. Tampa built a team around Tom, and he delivered. Will the WNBA do that for Caitlyn? 4) How much money is any team in the WNBA going to be able to offer Caitlyn and if they came anyplace close to the 5MM offer, what is that going to do to the rest of the players? How much are they going to demand?
SO, the short is this: Take the 5MM, demand a "no cut clause". Get the 5MM in escrow so that she gets it even if she never plays a minute of bball. Get all the outside endorsements she can, and make sure she owns ALL the rights to anything she does. No limitations. No requirements to push the name of the team she plays for, and no limitations on using the team name as part of her outside endorsements - in fact required remuneration for any association between herself and the name of the team she represents.
But that's just my take. I could be wrong.
The max salary she can make because of the salary cap is $76,500 with bonus potential of $5,000.
"hard to imagine a lady ever being jealous of another lady and trying to deliberately do her harm" : Are you serious?
@@trappinout18 not at all.. pure sarcasm. i'm finishing out my life with wife #3 and have six daughters. nothing more likely to harm a woman than another woman.
So @6:52 Rebecca is basically saying don't try to be physical with Caitlin like they would to other rookies because she's their meal ticket.
Ice cube is not stupid.He leaked that so other players could get that attention.It's going to be crazy because a lot of people want to be joining that
Never knew there was a 3v3 basketball league. Reminds me of NBA jam. Would definitely watch.
I watched it before COVID it's interesting
Caitlin Clark's mind is amazing in the fact that she doesn't play the game for the money, she plays the game because she loves the game. She won't accept the deal because she loves the game too much to where she wants to see it grow even more. Ice Cube's deal, while entertaining and more financially beneficial from her. will not help grow the game, only distract it. I like that humble self of her. Don't take the deal, grow the game and revolutionize the WNBA.
It's got nothing to do with love for the game. She won't take the offer because unlike her fans she knows men and women's basketball are two different animals.

Jay is an idiot for even mentioning Messi in the same sentence as her, Messi raised Inter Miami season ticket price 1000% after rumors of him joining them. I like CC she doesn't have a fraction of the star power Messi has and i don't think shes saving the league. If I'm CC, I'm definitely taking that offer because she is never gonna touch that amount playing in the WNBA . I think she would have had more leverage if this wasn't leaked because now other Big 3 players might feel like they ain't getting paid enough, but idk the salary situation in that league
Nobody cares about your poor person sport.

Big 3, 5 million plus endorsement deals
Not in 8 weeks your delusional Lol
No. She’s making $3 mil
You all don’t get it. She will get DESTROYED. Embarrassed on a level we have never seen. It would RUIN her image forever. She will make more money in endorsements playing with the ladies.
nobody packing a stadium to watch Catlin in he big 3 because those men will dominate her lmfao
Men will pull up just to see that. So it will def pack a stadium
I'd go
@@HomerunsamSOSAit will be entertaining for one game, but it would get old real quick
Jay said nah give me more 😂😂😂…
Yes!! Build your brand younglady 💯
Take. The. Deal.
Why not? Ballers ball, she's the best female player I ever seen personally.
You’re crazy. Caitlin Clark is a Thug that taunts her opponents. ZERO CLASS!!!
The big 3 is 100 percent men… tf she gon do playing with a men’s basketball
Quick Comments: a. I had to look up what the Big 3 was? b. I'm a huge Caitlin Clark fan c. Rebecca Lobo does a great job as commentator, and Jay's pretty strong as well.
Take it
Glad Caitlin bout to get that bag regardless of what she chooses
One is a Prada bag the other is a plastic bag by comparison
Lol wnba doesn't have a bag to offer
@@benguyton7933 she’ll bring more viewership to the wnba which will give her a bag regardless.. you think she wouldn’t be making money off sponsors on top of that? She’s already in commercials. Ur slow.
@@SammyBooy2814 there's significantly more money for her outside of the wnba. What makes you think endorsements don't happen if she goes with the big 3? I can see you're slow.
@@benguyton7933 Can point out to me when I said Caitlin wouldn’t get endorsements with the big three you moron? Why would she go to the big3 to be less competitive against men, when she can go the wnba and help everyone gets paid more…
Don’t enter this years draft. Go get that big 3 money, go to the WNBA next season 5 million richer. Duh!!
Caitlin should absolutely walk away from this offer. It's nice and all that Cube offered it to her, but no way should she accept this. Playing against men is a lot different against playing against the WNBA. Guys will go after her like crazy.
Yes!
