Caitlin Clark names business venture she wants to own
Caitlin Clark is one of the most high-profile and most sought-after female basketball players in the world. It was reported that WNBA’s 3×3 rival league Unrivaled was ready to offer the Fever star a deal similar to soccer legend Lionel Messi.
In her appearance on Jada Gyamfi’s “Fresh Tawk” podcast on Tuesday, the Fever star revealed a business venture she wanted to own.
“Have you ever seen them put up that dream thing? It said like, ‘Play in the WNBA, get a scholarship’ and one said, ‘Own a restaurant.’ One day, I have to accomplish that,” Clark said.
Owning a restaurant is an easy task for the WNBA Rookie of the Year, especially after it was reported that she signed a $28 million, eight-year deal with sportswear giant Nike. Apart from that, Clark also has deals with Wilson, Gatorade, Bose and a few other companies.
