Passing LeBron, Luka, and Wemby in jersey sales truly sounds unreal

But that's exactly what Caitlin Clark has been doing since her WNBA debut.

The latest data shows that the No. 2 spot for the top-selling basketball jerseys since 2024 does NOT belong to an NBA superstar. It belongs to CC and the WNBA.

Here is the official Top 5:

#1: Steph Curry
#2: Caitlin Clark
#3: LeBron James
#4: Luka Doncic
#5: Victor Wembanyama

Think about the sheer gravity of the names she just cleared. We’re talking about a global icon with over two decades of branding, a superstar with an entire continent behind him, and a generational phenom. The Caitlin Clark effect is real

It is remarkable, no doubt about it. I would add some context as far as Lebron though. I'm assuming those are sales just since 2024. Lebron is 40+ and has been in the league something like 22 years. I'd imagine most people wanting "a Lebron" have purchased one along time ago. Of course he did join the Lakers years ago so new merch opportunities there for him. Certainly CC22 being ahead of Luka, and Wemby is pretty amazing since they are the "now" guys in the NBA.
