Caitlin Clark is set to make history in the WNBA even before her first game, as she becomes the first female athlete to have her team apparel sold at all 724 Dick's Sporting Goods locations across the United States. In addition to this milestone, her debut is generating significant attention, with her first pro sports memorabilia item selling for $10,000 and courtside tickets for her sold-out preseason debut with the Dallas Wings reaching as much as $2,695 on the secondary market. Clark's impact is also seen in merchandise sales, with more Indiana Fever jerseys sold in one day than Cowboys jerseys all of last year. Furthermore, some WNBA teams are considering larger arenas for games when the Fever visit, highlighting her draw as a major attendance boon. Clark's early play in the WNBA will also serve as her tryout for a spot on the U.S. Olympic women's basketball team for the Paris Games, with the roster to be determined by June 1.
