Huge WNBA Announcement Drops After Caitlin Clark's Triple-Double Performance

The WNBA has been growing like crazy as of late, and a big reason why is because of star rookie guard Caitlin Clark, who has been taking the league by storm in her first year with the Indiana Fever.

Performances like the one she put up against the Los Angeles Sparks on Wednesday night (24 PTS, 10 AST, 10 REB, 8/17 FGM) help show how Clark is helping draw so much attention to the league.

Everyone knows how much attention the WNBA has been receiving, but a shocking viewership announcement dropped after Clark's latest game. Popular sports app "Real" shared that the last 30 games of the WNBA season have averaged more live viewers than the last 30 games of the NHL regular season, which is a huge development.

The NHL has long been considered one of the core four sports leagues in the world, but on Real, it's been getting out viewed by the WNBA.

If there was ever any doubt that the WNBA is on its way to becoming one of the top sports leagues in the world, it should be clear now that it's already reached that status.

And with Clark and all the other stars of the league continuing to put together big names on a nightly basis, it's fair to assume that the WNBA will keep on growing in the near future.
