Caitlin Clark calls out WNBA commissioner with bold statement


Caitlin Clark had a sharp message for WNBA commissioner Cathy Engelbert over the prize pool for the annual Commissioner’s Cup.

Clark and the Indiana Fever won the Commissioner’s Cup with a 74-59 win over the Minnesota Lynx on Tuesday. That victory entitles players to a share of the $500,000 prize pool, as well as $120,000 in cryptocurrency from sponsor Coinbase.

That is the same as the $500,000 prize pool for a WNBA title, which is split among multiple teams depending on how far they progress through the playoffs. In a video from the locker room, Clark suggested that disparity was ridiculous.

“You get more for this than you do if you’re a champion. Makes no sense. Someone tell Cathy to help us out,” Clark said.
