Caitlin Clark is this year's number one draft pick in the WNBA. Her salary has sparked outrage

ABC  

Caitlin Clark is used to breaking records, and as she was selected as the number one pick in the 2024 WNBA draft, another one fell. Over recent days, Caitlin Clark's salary has been compared to that of the last NBA number one draft pick, Victor Wembanyama; a man whose proportions are almost as unbelievable as the pay gap between him and Clark. "The significance of Caitlin Clark is not that she's changing the women's game per se, but she is absolutely a catalyst changing the business of women's basketball," she said. Caitlin Clark was the number one pick in this week's WNBA draft.
