Another record. Another legend left behind. Caitlin Clark, 24, has officially surpassed LeBron James in basketball jersey sales, and now ranks second to only one player: Stephen Curry.
The Indiana Fever guard continues to shatter expectations. Before stepping onto a WNBA court, she was already a household name. Now she is outselling one of the greatest NBA players of all time. Clark sits behind only Curry, the Golden State Warriors sharpshooter who changed how basketball is played.
Clark’s rise reflects something bigger than one player. Fans are buying her jersey at unprecedented rates. The numbers prove what the energy inside arenas already showed: women’s basketball has entered a new era.
LeBron James has led jersey sales for years. His global brand seemed untouchable. Clark did not just catch him. She blew past him. The only player remaining ahead of her is Curry, whose own jersey dominance spans a decade.
The rookie season has barely started. Clark is already rewriting the record books before most players even find their rhythm. If jersey sales predict cultural impact, the WNBA has never seen anything like this.
Curry holds the top spot for now. But Clark is 24. She is just getting started. The gap between her and No. 1 may not last long.
