Much has been said about how or why women’s basketball has been on the uptick, but for most people, the answer is simple: Caitlin Clark.
Caitlin Clark arrives prior to the 2024 WNBA Draft at Brooklyn Academy of Music on April 15, 2024 in New York City.MANILA, Philippines – Women’s basketball has seen a big boom in popularity in the first quarter of the year, with broadcast numbers skyrocketing in the recently concluded Women’s NCAA. The women’s championship game, for the first time in history, eclipsed the viewership of the men’s final.
“I think that first thing first is having fan bases that love them in college follow them into the league whether that’s coming to watch them play, just watching the games in general, I think that will always be something that should be a priority,” said Boston. But of course, for Boston, it wasn’t just about the fans and the teams going all in on their players — rather, the players, like Clark, will need to understand that it’s a whole different ball game in the W.
“There’s an adjustment, but if you’re confident you know that you’re there for a reason and continue to play with that confidence that you did in college, it should be okay,” she said.
