Who would you rather start a WNBA franchise with: Caitlin Clark<\/a> or Paige Bueckers? That was a question in this year\u2019s annual general managers survey conducted by the league prior to the season opener.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Before the 2025 season, executives were asked which player they would want to start a franchise with, and 50% said Clark. This year, with Clark heading into her third season after an injury-riddled sophomore campaign, playing only 12 games, and Bueckers coming off an impressive rookie season, winning Rookie of the Year honors, GMs\u2019 minds changed drastically.<\/p>\n

Clark received only 20% of the vote, while Bueckers led the voting with 33%. This is where WNBA legend, Lisa Leslie comes in.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Leslie, who will soon have a statue of herself erected outside of Crypto.com arena, said those general managers who didn\u2019t vote for Clark, “are probably gonna get fired.”\u00a0<\/p>\n

She didn\u2019t pull any punches as she expounded on her response to the survey saying, “This is a money business and the money is about Caitlin Clark<\/a>.”<\/p>\n

Leslie is spot on here. Reports say, Caitlin Clark has driven roughly 25%+ of the WNBA\u2019s recent economic activity over the last two seasons. Clark has been the main driving factor for record attendance, record ratings, record merchandise sales, massive franchise appreciation, a $2.2B media deal, expansion fee inflation, and more. She\u2019s not only the Indiana Fever\u2019s, but the WNBA\u2019s golden ticket. Her economic impact is off the charts.<\/p>\n

Leslie reinforced these facts in her appearance on “First Take” with Stephen A. Smith stating, “Never in the history of the WNBA, have we had a player force teams to play in larger arenas.”<\/p>\n

Just look at this staggering statistic between Caitlin Clark and Paige Bueckers.<\/p>\n

In the season opener in Indiana, as the Fever took on the Dallas Wings, the arena was obviously sold out with 16,000+ in attendance. It was Clark vs. Bueckers, with the addition of the WNBA\u2019s No. 1 overall pick, Azzi Fudd. It was obviously a hot ticket. Fast forward to game two for the Dallas Wings, who hosted Angel Reese and the Atlanta Dream. They couldn\u2019t even sell out the 7,000-seat arena.<\/p>\n

“If you\u2019re the GM, you\u2019re obviously supposed to be bringing in money,” Leslie explained further.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s true. As a GM, your job is to construct rosters, understand financials as it relates to contracts and player\u2019s value, while having a healthy, long-term vision that leads to championships. Revenue is certainly a factor, not the main role, but vital. Clark’s economic impact is far greater than Buecker’s.<\/p>\n

We can certainly have a conversation about which player is better currently, and who will ultimately help lead their respective teams to a championship(s), but I\u2019m with Leslie on this one. As she said, “I\u2019m going with Caitlin Clark.”<\/p>\n

If you factor in the marketability<\/a> \u2014 though Kevin Durant\u2019s media company, The Boardroom, believes Bueckers is more marketable than Clark \u2014 it\u2019s a no-brainer who GMs should have picked. Just add this to a long list of snubs and disrespect Caitlin Clark has received over the last few years.<\/p>\n

As for stats between the two this season, Clark is averaging 22 points, 4.5 rebounds, and 8 assists, while Bueckers is averaging 20.7 points, 2.7 rebounds, and 5 assists. Bueckers has been more efficient from three, some claim she\u2019s a better defender, and she clearly takes care of the basketball better with fewer turnovers, there\u2019s no doubt that Clark is still making a bigger impact overall on the court.<\/p>\n

Hopefully, these GMs will wise up before they\u2019re told to pack up their stuff.\u00a0<\/p>\n
