It's because no women's basketball team ever gets much attention, regardless of their accomplishments. WNBA or collegiate. This attention started because of a classic "Great White Hope" situation. Everyone loves an underdog, but White Conservatives in particular want to see white people do well in basketball (because black people dominate the sport despite being only 15% of the population). Caitlin is a white, non problematic(to them that means doesn't make left leaning public comments), straight, Catholic, no tattoos, from the midwest, "girl next door" type. The thing is, they might be watching and supporting because they are bigots deep down, but the potential revenue from them can benefit everyone in the WNBA. Even the Black LGBTQ+ players that they dislike. Its a win for all the women players. Hopefully this can help the league as a whole get some higher pay.

Caitlin Clark in my opinion, is like the Beatles coming to America.

Let's be honest. Why is she the ONE that has transformed women's basketball? Why not some other great player before her? She brings an entire package that no other player has EVER brought before. Some have had parts of the package, but not all of the parts. She is a great player, an magnetic personality, she's pretty, she's smart and witty. She is confident yet humble and on and on. Some before her have had part of those qualities, but not all of them. It is that simple.

Clark is not better than Maya Moore, Candace Parker, Sue Bird or Delle Donne coming out of college. She is popular because the media latched on because of the shooting range. When you really look at her game you realize it's limited. She can shoot and pass. She only shoots from the right side. She is only effective going right. She has no defense and can be neutralized by players with quick feet.
