New York Liberty star Sabrina Ionescu had the third-highest-selling jersey, with Las Vegas Aces teammates Kate Martin and A’ja Wilson rounding out the top five.
Despite being painted in a good light, not many Angel Reese fans were happy she was playing second fiddle to Clark.
The commercial impact of Clark and Reese was almost instant as soon as they got drafted into the league. Their jerseys were selling out within days of the 2024 WNBA draft.
Caitlin Clark and Angel Reese’s rivalry has helped things along as it began in college with Iowa and LSU.
The two ladies, as well as the rest of the league, will be on break until Aug. 14 for the Paris Olympics, where Ionescu, Wilson, and the rest of the United States women’s national basketball team will be competing for an eighth consecutive gold medal.
Angel Reese Joins 3×3 Basketball League
WNBA star rookie Angel Reese came into the WNBA with millions in her bank account, and now she is set to make even more.
Reese became the first rookie in the league to join Unrivaled, the player-owned professional women’s basketball league.
She becomes the 10th player to join Unrivaled, which also includes Stewart, Collier, Chelsea Gray, Arike Ogunbowale, Jewell Loyd, Kelsey Plum, Rhyne Howard, Kahleah Copper, and Jackie Young.
Reese’s brief time in the WNBA has increased interest in Sky games as they have drawn over 9,000 fans for seven of its home games at Wintrust Arena, according to Across the Timeline.
