Caitlin Clark Wnba Jersey Sales

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. — The excitement around women’s basketball continues to grow, and the popularity of WNBA jerseys reflects that shift. Caitlin Clark, a rookie with the Indiana Fever, holds the top-selling jersey ahead of the 2025 season. Her No. 22 jersey was a hot item last year, and she is credited with drawing big crowds to games.

Clark’s remarkable influence has led to impressive television ratings for the league, signaling a new wave of interest in women’s professional basketball. Last season, the Fever saw record attendance as fans flocked to see Clark play.

Paige Bueckers, who was drafted first overall, is also making waves with her jersey sales. Now with the Dallas Wings, her No. 5 jersey is highly sought after, likely to boost attendance for the Wings.

The Golden State Valkyries acquired Kate Martin through the 2025 WNBA expansion draft from the Las Vegas Aces. Martin, a popular player from Iowa, is contributing to the surge in jersey sales among second-year players.

Another significant rivalry is between Clark and Angel Reese, who had a standout rookie season. Reese led the league in rebounding and earned an All-Star selection. Her talent and visibility are expected to grow further in 2025.

A'Ja Wilson, a two-time WNBA Champion and the league’s most valuable player, remains a dominant force. Even though her jersey may not top sales charts, she continues to be a fan favorite and her performance could enhance her popularity.

Hailey Van Lith, a rising star, sold the second-most popular jersey among her rookie class after being picked 11th overall. She is one of three Chicago Sky players in the top ten jersey sales at this early point in her career.

Cameron Brink‘s rookie year was marred by an ACL injury, but she is expected to make a comeback this summer alongside Kelsey Plum. Even with limited appearances, Brink’s jersey remains a hot seller due to her potential and previous success at Stanford.

Napheesa Collier, who pushed the Minnesota Lynx to the WNBA Finals, is another rising star. As a Defensive Player of the Year and MVP candidate, Collier’s recent performances are drawing more attention and could increase her jersey sales.

Kamilla Cardoso, who faced injury setbacks, is back healthy and ready to play for the Chicago Sky. Her history as an NCAA Tournament Most Outstanding Player makes her a player to watch for rising jersey sales.

Finally, Sabrina Ionescu from the New York Liberty is a familiar name in the league, having been the first pick in the 2020 draft. A consistent performer and a three-time All-Star, her jersey sales continue to climb as she plays in one of the largest media markets in the United States.

These players not only elevate their team’s performance but also help drive the growth and visibility of women’s basketball in the U.S.
