Why Nike Banned the Caitlin Clark Shoe

- Caitlin Clark is more popular than Victor Wembanyama in the United States. Despite that fame, Nike refuses to give her a signature shoe until 2026/27. This is a look at why the shoe giant isn’t making all the money they can off of their star WNBA player.
They need to replace the WNBA Commissioner with someone who has a spine.

Absolutely. Leadership at the top is non-existent. The only thing she seems to do is cower in the face of political correctness and placate the moaners and complainers. A good commissioner would start with a crackdown on over-the-top flagrant aggression in the league, put in place a program to monitor, review, and address the terrible refereeing in the league, and step down on players, coaches, and owners who blindly label good supportive fans with blanket terms like racists. I can't believe the owners overall aren't screaming at Engelbert to get her act together and address some of the most dysfunctional aspects of this league.
And a brain !
They need to replace anyone who is responsible for this league as it stands.
A. The racist filthy media, WNBA and ESPN ladies have had goals from the start. One (1) was to not give Caitlin the MVP Nor The ROTY award and succeeded in one since they had promised Aja the MVP EVEN BEFORE The season started. 2. To have The Fever and Caitlin lose as many games as possible and as was obvious to lose in the playoffs (The Fever WOULD HAVE WON that series but for the WNBA's filthy tactics). 3. Losing the Playoffs meant they knew had the Fever won they may just win the whole thing and they could not allow Caitlin to become maybe the Biggest Athlete the world has ever seen, surely the biggest female ever. 4. As suggested above, the WNBA players have easily damaged Caitlins greatness--she would have been even greater if not for the physical and mental abuse that has been allowed by the WNB (and NBA since they pay the WNBA). Those were their goals. Moving on, (B) nothing was done against RACISM when C Carter shoved Caitlin down and calling her a "White B#$%@#" but the WNBA states they 'wont tolerate hate or racism...'? They have beaten Caitlin Clark up, both physically and mentally and they expect the masses to just go along with it?!!! THAT IS WHY there is much unrest within CC's fans, because the WNBA and the racist media turn a blind eye to the abuse the THE White girl who has actually helped this filthy league rise. If the abuse on Caitlin was not tolerated by the WNBA/Refs, nor by the heads of ESPN, Disney, ABC and others, all things would have very much more peaceful and neutral presently. C. The WNBA players claiming Fever fans are the ones who are too abusive. These uneducated ladies can't read nor can't see nor are reason and logic their forte. The hate towards Caitlin is MUCH greater and has been for a long time which is why Caitlin/Fever fans need to stand up for her and what is right and sound because she wont. D. It is these WNBA players, the ones hating Caitlin and her awesomeness, who have made all of this a Black and White issue while at the same time they indirectly piss on Asians and Latinos for totally ignoring them in just about every branch of entertainment. They cry out racism yet they too dish it out towards every other race, ethnicity and background. REMEMBER, there are many Asians and Latinos who also enjoy Caitlin Clark and want her to play over seas, so are they racist, too, not to mention there are many Blacks who also support Caitlin?
WNBA players complain for years about lack of attention, then a superstar comes along and brings them attention, and they shun her for it. Clark is like a rising tide that lifts all ships, but the WNBA players would rather sink her than let her be the force that brings them up. Pretty sad.
You have to understand it's all the other shit that happens as a result of it. Every time CC is hit with a slight hard foul you have her fans saying the most racist, wild shit you can imagine and trying to protect her way too much.
@@The2006Scaper I feel like most cc fans wouldn’t mind going back to 1950s America if u know what I mean
@@HenryZhoupokemon Yeppp feel that 100%
@The2006Scaper your argument is irrelevant when you accept Wilson is mvp and isn't played like this.
Why are my comments gone
She should have went with Curry :(
First team all wnba and 4th in mvp voting as a rookie is insane 😭😭😭
No not at all winning roty and mvp in same year insane.
As a black man who is decidedly left wing, nothing irritates me more than when people bastardize what could be useful terms for their own gain. It's not just Caitlin Clark. The entire new generation of women's basketball players are getting way more attention. JuJu will be getting just as much spotlight when she comes. And that's because the skill level and playstyle of women's basketball has dramatically changed. The new girls don't just play better, they look better when they do it. And that's better for social media, which is how they're getting popular. And Aja trying to intellectualize her own jealousy by weaponizing terms like "white privilege" is so fucking lame.
Could you explain how she is now getting a shoe when she’s been dominating the wnba
Who cares that you are black. It’s just skin color. Stop using it as a talking point. Who gives a fuck.
@@PirateD.KingLuffy Because in the past 20 years, only 5 or so WNBA players have ever had a Nike Signature shoe. This shit has never been a given for even the best WNBA players. MOST of the women getting signature shoes have been in the past few years. So Aja is right on schedule for the new wave. Caitlin is ahead of schedule because she's pure box office. And that fact should be understandable on its face, not met with jealous objections.
I totally agree
@@MergatroidS I’m just saying the white athletes got signature shoes way quicker than aja. Sabrina literally got her shoes 3 years in her wnba career
Bro…As a Black man, i really find this irritating. Caitlin is CLEARLY THE BEST PLAYER. PERIOD. Most of America didn’t care about women’s basketball until she showed up. It seems racist, just the other way around.
Aja Wilson is the best player in the WNBA, it's not even close.
@@The2006Scaper- BS. She can do some things and is a good player but Aja in not on the same level as an all around player and never will be.
@@Idkwhattoputhere24-m8v CC cant guard a traffic cone and has limited offensive skillsets. She doesn't even have a floater package yet.
A'ja can be utilized anywhere on the floor to make offense for herself or her teammates and guard 1-5 every single night. MVP and DPOY multiple times.
Tell me how CC is clearly better all around? As a black man to another black man you're embarassing us and need to pack this take up.
@@jamesballard3457 maybe it's because caitlin is a guard that is required to do multiple things that A'ja Wilson isn't supposed to do.
@@jamesballard3457 horseshit, stop talking out of your ass. Aja is a far superior player, CC still needs to develop.
I think Caitlin has room to improve, but I'm really impressed by how she is handling the pressure and hype.
Easy points to note are defence and to a lesser extent, off ball play. If she can improve in these areas, she'll be really well rounded.
yeah all those records including ROTY but she needs improvement. MMMM, HMMMM.
@@mnn1265 she's a great player but did you watch the games? If you did, it's obvious where she can improve. Just like Wemby, great player with some areas to grow. The whole thought that a rookie player is perfect with no room to improve is ridiculous - MJ and Lebron both needed to improve as well. You can't take a realistically positive statement and only view it as negative.
This is racism and jealousy from the bum charity wnba players who nobody cared about before this season.
@@qnonbs How is this racism?
@@Dimesprodzblack women hate that a white women is dominating their game
@@Dimesprodz they’re hating on Caitlin because she’s so good tht she takes away from other athletes, specifically colored athletes. By definition, racism is prejudice against any given race. She don’t gotta be black gng
@@DimesprodzIt’s actually reverse racism
@@Erick-ui8ge Breanna Stewart, Sue Bird, Sabrina, Diana Taurasi dominated and there was no hate. You’re generalising and acting like it’s only black women that play/watch the sport
Reverse racism is racism. Enough said
There's no such thing as 'reverse racism'. It's just racism. Never use the term 'reverse racism' - it gives credence to all the morons.
It's been going on for years. All black people have done is reverse the roles, becoming the ones who incites it instead of being the victims. Hate just creates more hate
If CC was black she’d be literally the next coming of Christ amongst the WNBA
Couldn’t agree more
Great white hope indeed.
lol
Then she needs to be black just like RDJ.
The only reason CC is getting all this attention is because she is the new white hope, cut the BS.
Cc needs to give Nike their money back and go to a real company.
I think she could sue them and get out of the contract. I'm sure there is a case to be made that she is losing money because of their refusal to put out a shoe for her while she is red hot.
Anyone else find it funny that people are trying to argue that basketball is biased towards white people?
@@ChloeSasha-j4r yes extremely.. its like the broke state of American politics leaked into women’s basketball with CC.. and these videos are feeding the beast for clicks
It's so hilarious considering 80% of both leagues are black
Lebron's came out within 3 months 20 years ago, but CC has to wait 3 years foh
Not comparable. LeBron had high levels of hype from Highschool. Caitlin became popular in college. Also different leagues may have an effect.
Yet LeBron praised her.
They were working on the shoes for probably a year.

But the process to develop his sneakers was done years before they came out. Remember each sneaker has to be patent approved which takes 22 months to do.
People always create new phrases to make excuses of their lack of success…
hard work = “privileged” lmao
I’m fair skinned and nobody is rushing to give me opportunities. Where is my privilege?
4'10 woman in Vietname making Nike Shoes: "Where's my privilege at? I make 20 cents an hour, to afford a pair of the shoes I make, I have to work one year." Meanwhile Aja Wilson complaining about privilege while getting her salary paid out of NBA's men pockets.
as a guy from Poland i can only laugh at alll what those "black victims" are saying
Women being petty? Color me shocked...
We have gone way beyond petty with this wnba bs
lol
??? bruh, you get a shoe deal if you can sell shoes. CC shoes would fly off the shelves today if they were available. Nike need her, she doesn't need Nike, thats how it works..
You have it backwards... Nike don't need her look at her base salary pay for the wnba. She definitely needs like lol
I truly wish CC would wave goodbye and go to Europe!! Sign with UA and live happily ever after!!!
Now no one gonna buy wilson shoes
i heard Sabrina's are good but with what Aja said bout that white player... hell nah
Clark is the wnba, i didnt know bout the wnba til i see TH-camrs talking bout Clark and wnba players hating on clark.
A'jas crying about CC getting a contract before her and the woke activist lesbians were calling Nike racists (I know, totally absurd) so CC AND Nike together decided to allow A'jas shoes to come out ALONE knowing for a FACT that if they came out together the crying and complaining would reach an all time high since CC's shoes will sell out in record time like everything else of hers! One more thing thats OBVIOUS, from the moment the top 5 jersey sales were announced and Kate Martin, CC's teammate, was #4 A'ja has been crying cuz shes #5 and Kate only played a few minutes per game, but when the second list came out of top 5 jersey sales came out and it was the same, A'ja cried to Becky Hammon to BENCH Kate Martin so she didnt get any more popular than she already was! So Kate Martin was benched for several games (I know she bruised her achilles, but she came back then got benched) until the very last reg season game when all starters were resting! Kate Martin is a great shooter/defender/passer and the Aces actually nicknamed her "Money Martin" at the beginning of the season! Kate NEEDS to get out of toxic AF Vegas~!
Wilson is another OLD player whose style of play is going away. just like hockey ,the old "goon" style of play went over to speed and skill, making for a more exciting game. Wilson know's she wont be able to keep up . the rookie's ARE coming.
@@thomasgirty6397 u seem like an OLD man with outdated views that doesn’t really pay attn to the sport.. half of you fans don’t care about the sport just around to fan fake narrative and spread broken political agendas… they’re better players coming in the next 2 years that will likely surpass Clark but you ppl are so caught up in the moment it makes it hard to appreciate the NOW
Nobody will buy an Aja Wilson shoe. Did they not learn from marvel about pandering ?? All you have to do is check the Wilson brand ball sales as a test. I don’t remember Aja forcing road teams to move to NBA arenas. Idk. Nobody is gonna buy.
It will be a symbol of woke and celebrities will buy and wear it as a statement. But that's it. It won't sell more 400,000k pairs and that is taking her viewership into account. While Caitlin's Wilson basketball and Jersey's are selling insane even after restock after restock.
Now we talking about WNBA because of Caitlin. Heck I don't even know who Aja Wilson is honestly before 😅
Clark gets treated too harshly just for what? Racial equality??? Come the f on.
It’s wokeness, a word I don’t use but, Nike trying to cover their bases by going with Aja first. What’s going to happen when the CC shoe outsells Aja’s? Follow your own slogan and “JUST DO IT”.
What does "wokeness" have to do with this.
@@Dimesprodz Yea even that guy doesn't even know wtf he's talking about. Simply put, Nike is just trying to chase the money and is in scramble mode
@@Dimesprodz everything
@cheesun124 No, it doesn't. People don't have to like Caitlin. If they don't It doesn't make them "woke." Nike, choosing Aja doesn't Mena they have anything against CC they chose another marketable player that is receiving the MVP.
Come on Dimesprodz..open your eyes.
Anyone else find it funny that people are trying to argue that basketball is biased towards white people?
Nah, at this point they’re really hopeless. WNBA is really depressing, they don’t deserve Caitlin Clark.
It's partly because she's white. Look at what Jordan brand did to Luka. They gave Zion his first signature shoes before Luka when it was clear that Luka's miles ahead of Zion at any point of time of his career 😂😂😂
It has absolutely NOTHING to do with her skin color. Caitlin Clark, is just an extremely good basketball player that wasn’t welcomed to the WNBA, for many reasons; with skin color being the least of the reasons!
It always has to do with race. However in the Zion vs Luka I think the choice was American college sensation or a relatively unknown to murica Euro star.
@davidwashington2827 No, her skin is definitely part of it. If she was black she would not be getting anywhere near the backlash and hateful treatment. There are other factors, the major one being jealousy, but races is definitely a factor
Bigs could never sell shoes. Duncan, Robinson, Olajuwan, etc. Ewing did okay with BK but was short lived. CC will outsell Aja' 10-1 and Nike knows this. Nike is so woke. Should of signed with Kevin Plank and Under Armour. CC and Steph would make a dynamic duo in shoe sales.
So woke they sell expensive shoes that cost a few bucks to make by people in some of the worst conditions on Earth
What about sketchers? Perfect fit for her and her fanbase.
Shaq sold like half a billion pairs of his shoes.
There is tons of brands other than UA. UA is done. They had a chance and they overplayed their hand. They thought they were the next Nike. But they priced themselves out of the market and never developed anything new. There is Puma, Adidas, New Balance, as well as some chinese brands, I think Wade and Klay are signed to chinese brands. Why is this whole thread bringing up UA who have nothing going for them.
She needs to get out of contract, give nike their money
Nike has been fumbling in soccer and basketball since 2014.
Nike once had a slogan that said: You dont win silver, you lose gold. These days it's, "You come in first, but someone else gets your gold for political reasons".
I love Caitlin's mindset. She knows a lot of players hate her, often ignore her talent, etc. But she goes out every night to play ball and be the best
I’m going to say this once, WNBA need to fire this commissioner and hire a man, yeah A MAN with no feelings, all seriousness.
Serena Williams got some hate but not to the Level that CC has gottten
At least Serena was fully aware that she didnt stand a chance on court against the 200th best male tennis player in the world. WNBA players are all delusional. If there was a basketball midget league they would have higher viewership than the WNBA and the midgets would dunk more often than the women.
I don't understand why there is so much media pushback against Clark, she's the real deal. In the NBA, young and talented players are immediately put on everyone's radar. But in the WNBA, players of lesser talents are propped up?
i watch WNBA because of CC, I heard of Angel Reese because of CC, that's a FACT
NO ONE heard of Reece till she transfered to a stacked team already making run's at the championship. at her first school ??? zero impact.
They know CC's shoe would sell faster and wider than Aja's, just like their jerseys are. A white girl selling more than a black girl wouldn't be a good look for Nike's DEI front.
meanwhile, Wilson Sport's is laughing all the way to the bank.
This past season of the WNBA is going to be a future ESPN 30 for 30.
I have the 22th like :)
it’s about time my favorite nba youtuber takes about CC 🎉
Nice use of the black privilege, Aja.
Race again? Big surprise 😂😂😂
Spitting facts
I’m under the impression that the WNBA, wants a black player to be recognized for the new attention this league is receiving, and not the arrival & play of Caitlin Clark. Poor marketing, and the negative image about the league; simply made the WNBA, not appealing.
Women, amirite?
Yes!
Nice video mr k. Not afraid to speak the truth!
What Aja said to Plum is F'D up!!! B M here!!! UnF'ing believable. Listen, I do think that W privilege is real, but in businesses and marketing, the numbers don't lie. We gotta stop crying wolf and fight at the right times smh. If the databased decision proves the bigger financial gain is with Clark, the her project should've been more of a priority. Aja shoe will fail! I learned who she was because of CC and Angel Reese 💯.
These “as a black male” comments are so cringe .. pandering to gain favor for expressing an opinion… weak
@blsfinest1981 We have to let it be known, otherwise you'll think it's another racist W person smh. Again, America's race problem is real, I just don't buy into the BS when I can clearly see that it's BS. I'm not going along with you just because our skin is the same color. I raise the flag! I have been employed in a position where it was my job to enforce EEO. I never lost!! I'm not perfect, but I know that this CC negativity is BS.
@@blsfinest1981 not really...we have to separate ourselves from the weirdos that indulge in racial idolatry
@@SGriTa913 from how triggered he felt from this comment, he might be one of them.
All those bum ladies are privileged, they need to be quiet. First off they have the genetics to play ball. Second they live in a country that enables people who are athletic to become pros while getting a free education as per scholarship. Third, they have a pro league that is subsidised by the NBA, because in over 20 years the WNBA hasnt managed to be profitable cause nobody really cares about it. The WNBA Allstar Team would get blown out by 18 year old D1 bench players.
WHY NOT THE SEASONED PLAYERs? Because up till now the WNBA has been an, “ It’s All About ME league,” but BB fans have been comparing you to your daddy the NBA! Watch as those who have been playing for the game had to play along because of all the selfishness and ego that has come out of the woodwork since Caitlin came to town! Oooo! Have they gotten their feathers ruffled over her. She has the audacity to come into their league and just wants to play the game that she loves? She should have knowing there are rules and a pecking order she must follow, just like the other players! The problem for the WNBA elite is, the basketball world has taken notice and is now in the game Too! The, “It’s All About Me,” days are over! So go home relax and admire all those wonderful awards and trophies you’ve won, because your game is now OVER!
I KNEW IT, I KNEW IT!! She shoulda signed with UA. They offered her the moon, and she rejected it. Now, she has to check with her legal team for options to get out of the Nike contract.
Tbh, I didn't know about Aja Wilson before CC. 😅
I'm guessing the WNBA final might have less viewership than CC last game
Great show, which I almost missed.
Lotta people butthurt because hoops spoke facts, they say ignorance is bliss. I suppose the truth does hurt and hard to admit….
Them Tim D sneakers are so fire. I have all there's colors. Only the questions and answers where better than the duncans
Nobody watched women’s Olympic basketball, they should’ve added Clark to the roster 😭
Fr, I didn’t even see highlights or publicity about it
No one ever does and I don't that would've changed.
They would've lost. Too many turnovers from 1 player, They won which means she wasn't needed.
Kaitlyn should dump Nike and go with Adidas. This Kaitlyn backlash is of the charts.
as a guy from Poland i can only laugh at alll what those "black victims" are saying
The sad thing is, the haters are only a small portion... another case of the loud minority...
The jealousy towards Caitlyn might be doing the opposite of what they want for her.
My daughter will wait till 26/27. Wilson’s is a token shoe
I dont watch the WNBA. Could not care less. But I love all this Caitlin Clark drama. Once the NBA season starts and ends, how many people will have forgotten about the WNBA?
Less than you think.
I’m one those who followed and then watched the games. It’s hard not to root for her. After a few months , I purchased her Jersey. I followed until her last game of the playoffs. I cancelled my sports subscription service . Will bring it back on once WNBA season start. The rest of the league is really unwatchable. No one will watch. Clark, is fun to watch. The rest are flat footed players
Your editing is so smooth, appreciated it!

bot ahh
Bot
No one gives a $#!+ about Aja
Well smells like CC going to the Jordan brand
You already know we’re skipping this add
Facts 😂😂❤❤
no doubt
Good for u
Its clutch he has that bar on the bottom for ez skipping 😂😂😂
Uhh, who watches ads willingly?
If clark is black imagine the glaze 😂
Should have signed with curry for the shooters aura
Sketchers is more fitting.
We all know the Ceo step down for other reasons🧴
Caitlyn needs to request cancellation of Nike contract and go somewhere else
The Clark haters have no floor
As a shoe collector, no one buys female shoes. Even if it looks good, just because its womens sizing no one wants it because it fits slightly different. If they make it mens sizing then everyone would buy it IF it is limited and good looking
I doubt they will ever be limited. I say because she avoids signing stuff that she thinks someone will immediately put on Ebay for profit. I don't think she'd want one of her shoes so exclusive that only the wealthy could have them.
Expose them AM hoops good job bro
Nike have Wemby and Caitlin
Everything is about race now a days. Ppl need to wake up fast.
Thanks obomba
U can thanks obomba
Nike women, when marketing to girls and all, may think reserve a year for Aja and then drop Caitlin's... but ANYONE who pays attention would understand that BOTH SHOES can exist and sell.
They really need to stop hating it was through Jordan and Jordans, that people wanted to buy other Nike Basketball sneakers worn by Pippen, Barkley, Robinson, even Jason Kidd and other sports stars like Griffey and both Sanders.
The women are just about there but they're... in their own way?
Its unfortunate but it is telling why the WNBA is not growing correctly.
I didn’t know who tf Ajah Wilson was until this vid (still don’t), I knew Clark tho and I can bet you there are 5x more people who know her over any other player.
Eff the Nike shoes. She can sit back and collect her money for the next 8 years. She has a contract with Wilson having her own signature collection. They cannot keep her balls in stock. Well, hoops players wear more than shoes. She should sign with Adidas for sports clothing, etc. Go CC. Too many have your back.
Maybe if Nike didn't have advertisements printed all over their jerseys and made them with quality material, they wouldn't be performing so poorly.
It seems that women haven't figured out that sports is a meritocracy. They aren't used to having to earn what they have.
Maybe Simone Biles could get these women in a room and talk to them about what it takes to be great and become a sports icon and a product mover. That girl earned it.
I don't care about women basketball. But I do find Caitlin Clark interesting. I hate that people can't just call Caitlin's treatment racist just because she's white. Very irritating to see people dancing around this. However, I don't think Caitlin should put out a shoe because she's got the aura around her now, and if that shoe isn't a smash success, it'll look make her look bad. She doesn't need that right now. I also don't think Nike was the right place for her to sign. She should have gone with New Balance. She's going to get lost in Nike's roster.
She's going through some of the same issues Steph went through when he was just going into superstardom. Players disliked him and felt he didn't deserve all the hype but just like Steph is she balls out next year and is in MVP talks the league will fall in place and accept that she is a generational talent.
WNBA will forever be mediocre basketball. Mediocre doesn’t deserve million dollar contracts. They got one star that looks better than mediocre and now they all want millions. I’d rather watch high school boys basketball than wnba from a skills outlook
IF NIKE signed CC first the cuz of Wilson crying to have her shoe before CC and Nike making CC wait for 3-4 years couldn't she get out of that contract and go with another company?
WNBA has made it clear they are an activist league🤷♂️ you are either black, lesbian, or an activist. It’s not about basketball, they’ve vocalized that even. If you wanna be taken seriously, take your own league seriously instead of this social warrior nonsense
2021 was an anomaly of a year for stocks. Everyone’s portfolio was up 80%+. To give everyone an idea of how wild 2021 was: Rivian was worth 100 billion dollars, which is about the same size as starbucks and larger than ferrari. Rivian is now worth 11 billion.
I've been following her career closely since entering the W. She gets all of my support because one she is entertaining to watch and two; I can't stand bullies and racism especially from people who believe they are not. So yeah I'm watching every game and buying her merchandise. My business will play every Fever game and refuse to watch any other team until Brink comes back and Paige/Juju come into the league.
A.M. besides the Caitlin Clark mess another reason the Nike ceo stepped down is because since the Diddler was arrested, a lot of CEOs have stepped down and he just happens to be one of them.
I hope Caitlin will be able to think twice about the Nike contract. Adidas & Armour is just a phone call away. Nike is becoming racist. A'ja is not marketable, she is racist. Go CC22.
Maybe Nike doesn't want to cannibalize the sales A'Ja Wilson shoes. If Clark's shoed came out at the same time, no one would pay attention to Wilson's shoes.
I could never like AJA. We were all looking forward to CC shoes, I hope she goes to Under Armour and cancels Nike.
This video goes so into the Dirty side of why Catlin Clark is mistreated, as it is just a Taste of how bad it was Out there for her, but she won by uproar against them, well done Casey! 2:00
It’s CC’s fault she gets fans attending her game and watching her on tv. Apparently it’s “privilege” wtf are they on about.
Not CC’s fault, it’s you guys fault that come watch only to be ignorant about the league and troll
@@shaunaedee4540 people watch CC because the way she plays is entertaining.
CC is hated in droves by black lesbians.
Off topic, but could someone explain to me why some players wear a nylon/stocking on only 1 leg? How does that improve ones play?
How can you talk about nike's generational billionaire athletes and not talk about Cristiano Ronaldo 🤌🏾
“Privilege”
Maybe all these W players need to focus on making their league profitable.
Just saying.
It's so stupid, i bet most ppl wouldn't know who aja Wilson was if Caitlin Clark wasn't in the wnba. Basic economics, supply and demand 😂
its a sputid move from Nike, Clrak is going to sell shoes, Wilson not that much
Who wears Wilsons shoes? Nike is the best example for mismanagement.
The WNBA has a great and generational talent here with Clark so they will finally get attention from people 😂
It's a shame they get the attention but they don't want it. Let's see how much the other player shoes sale.
I couldn't be any more disappointed in Nike! Like, wtf⁉️🤦🏻♂️
wtf is up with the wnba hating white players so much 😅
