Today, we’ve got two major stories to break down: Caitlin Clark and Lexie Hull are breaking the internet with viral footage AGAIN, and I’ve got an update on the WNBA ticket crash that’ll leave you shook! For this one, we’ve got to take a trip all the way up to Indiana, so let’s get it!

 

 

Caitlin Clark, Lexie Hull friendship is paying off for Indiana Fever

 

Alright, first up, Caitlin Clark and her Indiana Fever teammate, Lexie Hull, are back in the spotlight after their latest viral TikTok video blew up last night. Y’all remember Caitlin’s bond with Kate Martin from their college days at Iowa? Well, it looks like the Caitlin and Lexie duo is becoming just as iconic. It’s like Caitlin has found her new ride-or-die in Lexie Hull—her “Robin to the Batman,” if you will—up in Indiana. Fans are loving every bit of it!

And honestly, it’s awesome to see Clark and Hull give us a peek into their everyday lives outside of basketball. These fun, casual moments they’re sharing on TikTok are bringing fans closer to them in a way we don’t often see from athletes. And that’s exactly what I’m going to be doing here, too—keeping you guys updated on what Caitlin Clark is up to this offseason, with stories that go beyond basketball.

Roll the footage!

In this viral clip, Caitlin and Lexie are out trying some fun new drinks. The energy is on point—fans just love seeing them having fun, staying humble, and keeping it real with everyone. No egos here, just two down-to-earth ballers connecting with their fanbase. And trust me, this type of content is what makes Caitlin Clark stand out from other players who are more about fame than the game.

Speaking of that, I can’t help but notice how some players seem to have lost their love for basketball, getting caught up in all the hype and tabloids (ahem). But not Caitlin! She’s still out here, engaging with fans, making TikToks, and staying grounded. That’s the kind of attitude that will take her far, not only in the WNBA but in life, too.

 

 

 

Now, let’s talk WNBA viewership, because since Caitlin Clark left the playoffs, it’s been a whole different story. When Caitlin was playing, her last WNBA game pulled in a whopping 2.5 million viewers, peaking at 3-4 million! But now that she’s out of the playoffs, views have dropped significantly. I’m here to tell you—don’t be fooled by the league’s spin. Yes, the WNBA says their views are still solid, but without Caitlin in the mix, none of the games have crossed a million views. Facts don’t lie.

Check it out: Liberty vs. Aces—game one did 925,000 viewers, game two hit 969,000, and game three reached 994,000. And for the Lynx vs. Sun series? Game one did 600,000, and it didn’t get much better from there. Compare that to Caitlin’s last game with 2.5 million? The drop-off is real!

Now onto the ticket sales drama. Get this—tickets for the Minnesota Lynx elimination game were going for just $65 courtside, with average seats at $10. Yeah, you heard me right. This was a critical game for a chance to go to the Finals, and they were practically giving tickets away! Compare that to when Caitlin Clark was in the league—those tickets were going for thousands. It’s crazy how much her presence has impacted everything, from views to ticket sales.

With the WNBA Finals now set, the Minnesota Lynx will face the New York Liberty for the championship. The Lynx punched their ticket to the Finals after crushing the Connecticut Sun 88-77 in a physical showdown. But guess what? The Sun’s tough-guy tactics couldn’t handle the Lynx this time around. Now, the Lynx are headed to Brooklyn to take on Sabrina Ionescu, Breanna Stewart, and the Liberty in what’s shaping up to be an epic series.

Guys, this Finals is going to be legendary! That’s all I’ve got for you today, but don’t forget to drop your thoughts in the comments, hit that notification bell, and stay locked in because I’ve got all the updates coming your way.

Until next time, shake the haters off, and peace out!
