If Caitlin Clark’s agents didn’t inform her of this deal, they should all be fired.
This is one of the best deals for doing very little work. All she had to do was shoot 3-pointers and could have made $15 million. That is close to what she will be making with Nike for over eight years.
Here is the story via TMZ Sports.
Caitlin Clark was slated to make AT LEAST $15 million if she had agreed to suit up for Ice Cube’s Big3 … so says league co-founder Jeff Kwatinetz, who’s revealing more eye-popping details on the lucrative offer.
The entertainment exec explains the deal came with a $10 million salary over two years, a percentage of team ownership, half of merch revenue and a stake in a Big3 doc with a seven-figure advance — totaling a minimum of $15 million.
On top of that, Kwatinetz says the offer included a guarantee Clark would be coached by two-time Hall of Famer Nancy Lieberman.
So … why not let the biggest name in women’s hoops rake in the dough??
Kwatinetz feels Clark’s team of agents would rather be in good graces with the NBA than prioritize the Indiana Fever draft pick’s best interests … claiming Adam Silver’s organization has continued to sabotage Big3’s success, and anyone who doesn’t join that cause would suffer the consequences.
If the NBA sabotaged this, shame on them.
