Indiana Fever rookie star Caitlin Clark has taken the WNBA by storm this season, and recently saw a unique rookie trading card of her sell for a very hefty price. Clark’s 2024 Panini Instant WNBA Draft Blue Viper Rookie Auto sold for $84,000 at a Fanatics Collect auction as per The Collectibles Guru on social media.

With that auction price, that particular Caitlin Clark rookie card became the highest selling WNBA card ever. It surpassed a previous Clark card that sold for $78,000 back in January. That was the Bowman U Superfractor Auto which was also a unique 1-of-1 card.

With big name players with a huge followings in both the NBA and WNBA, various collectables are hot commodities. Los Angeles Lakers rookie Bronny James recently had a jersey sell for an astronomical price as well. And that wasn’t even a regular season game jersey, it was a summer league jersey.

It’s safe to say that as Clark’s WNBA career progresses and the accolades continue to come in, her merchandise will continue to fetch top dollar on the market as well.

While Clark has set numerous WNBA records this season as a rookie, perhaps the biggest impact she’s had on the Fever is helping lead them back to the playoffs. Prior to this year, the Fever had not made the postseason since 2016. They are the No. 6 seed in the league standings and will face the Connecticut Sun in the first round of the playoffs.

Clark is also the overwhelming favorite for the WNBA Rookie of the Year Award. While Chicago Sky rookie Angel Reese made the race close at times, Reese’s unfortunate season-ending injury took wind out of those sails.
