Caitlin Clark got a shoutout from podcasters Jason and Travis Kelce in one of the recent episodes of their show.
In one of the recent episodes of “New Heights,” hosts Jason and Travis Kelce were talking about making shots in basketball, with the scene eventually leading to a challenge to Fever star and former Rookie of the Year Caitlin Clark.
“That was actually pretty smooth for a guy that didn’t play basketball,” Travis said.
“Nothing but basket,” Jason said.
“I bet you can’t do that Caitlin,” Travis quipped to the Fever star.
Clark responded in her stories, saying: “Come on now guys !!😏”
Jason and Travis Kelce also appeared in collected clips as part of Nike’s newest ad featuring Clark, which was released on Christmas Day.
Caitlin Clark Goes Viral for New Nike Ad
Nike on Friday unveiled its first commercial for WNBA guard Caitlin Clark, debuting the campaign on Christmas morning to promote her forthcoming signature shoe slated for spring 2026. The spot positions Clark as the face of the release and frames the product around a simple promise: that wearing her shoe makes long-range shots possible from anywhere on the court.
The ad opened with Clark in neighborhood surroundings, taking shots from a driveway while a montage of voices repeatedly asks, “Can you make it from here?”
The challenge was then voiced and repeated by children, podcast hosts Jason and Travis Kelce, a global fan, comedian Michael Che, and even Travis Scott, among others. The sequence cuts to game action where Clark sinks a deep, game-winning three and delivers the campaign’s tagline directly to camera.
Nike also revealed Clark’s signature logo in August 2025: two interlocking “C”s meant to symbolize her connection with fans worldwide. The commercial shows the emblem on her apparel, but the actual signature shoe and an official release date have not yet been disclosed.
In an interview, Clark praised joining Nike’s signature roster and teased a first look at the collaborative design. The Fever star also highlighted what having her own signature shoe line means to her.
“Nike’s signature roster features all-time greats, and I am incredibly proud to join some of the best athletes in the world,” Clark said. “I’m excited to share a first look at what we’ve created together. To me, this is more than just a logo, it’s a dream come true. People always talk about leaving your mark on the game, and this is another way I can do that.”
Caitlin Clark’s anticipated Nike signature shoe is expected to launch in Spring 2026.
