el to the hype by retweeting the ad with a caption that read “[eyes emoji],” posted from her account @CaitlinClark22.
WNBA fans reacted instantly, and the conversation quickly took a familiar turn.
One reply from @404xwavey dragged Angel Reese into the discussion, saying, “Angel Reese woulda bricked that shot.” The comment spread fast, sparking replies from both sides of the fan divide.
Another user, @MrDrakeford, responded with a “[shushing emoji]” and shared a screenshot pointing out Clark’s three-point ranking at the time.
As of June 25, 2025, Clark was listed 55th in three-point percentage. Final numbers from ESPN for the completed 2025 season later placed her 68th, shooting 27.9 percent. Reese, meanwhile, did not appear in the three-point rankings that extended to 74 players, though she finished the season as the league’s leading rebounder.
The numbers didn’t slow the debate. WNBA fans split into camps, with some focusing on Clark’s shot-making ability and others pointing to efficiency and role differences. The reaction showed how any Clark highlight becomes instant comparison material.
What stood out most was how fast Reese’s name entered a moment that had nothing to do with her. The debate isn’t just about one shot or one video. For WNBA fans, it reflects an ongoing rivalry narrative that plays out anytime Clark trends.
By the end of the day, the ad had done its job. It dominated feeds, sparked arguments, and reminded WNBA fans why Clark content rarely stays quiet online.
WNBA Fans Praise Caitlin Clark After Nike Christmas Ad Drop
Nike Basketball officially dropped its “Make It Anywhere” campaign on Christmas Day, putting Caitlin Clark front and center.
The brand shared the video with the caption, “Caitlin Clark is proof that you can make it From Anywhere,” featuring Clark alongside cameos from well-known figures asking if she could really hit shots from anywhere on the floor.
WNBA fans quickly rallied behind the message.
One reply from @Maga4Justice read, “From Iowa to anywhere. Caitlin Clark.” The comment echoed a common theme in the replies, highlighting Clark’s rise from college star to global name.
Another user, @michelles2cool, went even further, writing, “Only the most famous and loved female basketball player IN THE ENTIRE WORLD!! [tongue out emoji].”
While clearly exaggerated, the comment captured the excitement flooding the post.
Unlike other Clark-related moments, this reaction thread leaned heavily positive. WNBA fans focused less on stats and more on visibility, branding, and star power. The campaign framed Clark as a face of the sport, not just a scorer.
The ad’s release timing also mattered. Dropping on Christmas helped it reach casual viewers, not just regular WNBA fans. That broader exposure fueled the praise and helped the video travel beyond typical sports circles.
By the end of the day, the campaign had become one of Nike Basketball’s most talked-about holiday releases. For WNBA fans watching closely, the message was clear. Clark’s reach now extends far beyond highlights, and moments like this show how firmly she has entered the mainstream spotlight.
