Caitlin Clark Stays Focused on NCAA, Sidesteps Big3 Offer Discussion

Caitlin Clark has been offered a significant $5 million to play in the Big3 league by Ice Cube, who praises her value highly.

We intended the offer to remain private while Caitlin Clark plays for the championship. But I won’t deny what’s now already out there: BIG3 made a historic
offer to Caitlin Clark. Why wouldn’t we? Caitlin is a generational athlete who can achieve tremendous success in the BIG3. https://t.co/cwzHh7EVau

The deal involves playing in eight regular season games, with potential playoff games, earning $500,000 per game. This opportunity also opens avenues for endorsements and merchandise revenue.

At Friday’s Iowa news conference, when questioned about the Big3 offer, Clark kept her focus on her team, indicating she learned of the offer through social media like everyone else.

“I found out about the Big3 thing the same exact time you all did,” Clark said of the release of that information on social media. “I honestly don’t talk about those things with really anybody. I have other people that deal with it, and they haven’t said a word to me about it. My main focus is on this team and helping us find a way to beat Colorado and hopefully win another one after that.”

Despite the attractive offer and public acknowledgment of her talent, Clark remains focused on her current team’s objectives, particularly the upcoming match against Colorado, highlighting her dedication to her collegiate basketball commitments.
