Caitlin Clark Effect Reaches New Heights After Crazy WNBA Finals Rematch Viewership Numbers Revealed

Caitlin Clark has completely taken the WNBA by storm in her first season in the league with the Indiana Fever, and nothing indicates that better than the league's viewership numbers for their games.

Throughout the season, Clark has helped the Fever pace the WNBA in terms of per game viewership, but the latest development in this area is quite shocking.

On Saturday, the Las Vegas Aces and New York Liberty clashed in a WNBA Finals rematch that failed to draw in 1 million viewers, despite being on CBS. The Fever's battle against the Minnesota Lynx on Friday shockingly managed to bring in more viewers, even though it was only broadcast on ION.

With that development, it shouldn't come as much of a surprise that the Fever's game on Sunday against the Seattle Storm easily doubled the viewership of the Liberty-Aces contest.

There are still fans out there who don't believe the Caitlin Clark effect is real, but with numbers like these, there's simply no denying it.

The Fever don't play again until Saturday, but you can bet that when Clark and company take the court again, there will be hundreds of thousands of fans tuning in to watch them play.
