Many WNBA players may resent her 28 million dollar contract with Nike. I think average WNBA player make about 80 k a year. To earn that, a player would have to play 350 years....Plus, Caitlin is very good...the only way to beat her is by Thugette ball..
Her brand of lady basketball is superior to the WNBA brand. She could start her own league utilizing her style ( good passing, easy layups, good free throws,accurate long 3 point shooting,). That style is actually attractive as it emphasizes skill, quickness, agility, forethought, consistency....kind of reminds me of the Lakers of the 80’s and Larry Bird type of playing style..without the D, and the obvious size, quickness, and strength differences.
The NBA owns 50 % of WNBA, and gives it a 15 million dollar stipend yearly. I am sure there are more than a few companies who would buy into a non Thugette league and raise more money than that...Clark has to endure a few more years and get her own players....international stars, intelligent players...good bball games...put an inferior WNBA to rest.
IMHO

A league of one team?
