Caitlin Clark is already creating seismic change in the WNBA
ABCIn Short: WNBA teams are moving matches to larger stadiums in advance, as the competition experiences 'unprecedented' popularity. Players, coaches and fans the world over are gearing up for what is already a transformative season for the WNBA, headlined by record-smashing number-one draftee Caitlin Clark. Players and coaches said radical change has arrived for the WNBA, after decades of the men's "Big Four" – the NBA, NFL, National Hockey League and Major League Baseball — maintaining a chokehold on American sport. The league enjoyed its most-watched season in more than two decades last year, buoyed by the popularity of the two "superteams", the New York Liberty and Las Vegas Aces. "Women's basketball is experiencing unprecedented viewership and attendance numbers, so moving these games back to Crypto.com Arena provides us the ability to have more fans in the stands," Sparks President Christine Monjer said in a statement.
