Caitlin Clark Fans React To Rachel DeMita’s Claims
On her podcast, analyst Rachel DeMita mentioned that the WNBA and WNBPA need to complete the deal as early as possible, looking at the starting date of the 2026 season. She hypothetically makes a comment that had the 2024 Fever rookie signed with Klutch Sports agency, the outcome of the discussions would have been different.
She said, “They (Klutch Sports Group) have a lot of power in the NBA space. If Caitlin Clark was signed to Klutch, I feel like this CBA would have been done by now.”

Sorry! This is a stupid take. CC is a damn! marketing major with a high GPA. I think she’s smarter than RP or anyone at Klutch. Some of CC over zealous fans continuously calling her stupid because of her choice for an agent & the deals she signs. SMH CC negotiated her shoe…
