All right. I think we did all the business up top. You ready to get into the show?

Yes, I do think Caitlin Clark is going to meet the moment. And I think Caitlin Clark mania and fever or Clarkonomics, whatever it is they're calling it, I think it only gets bigger and better. I mean, health-willing, of course. But I think part of it is there'll be less resistance this season.

And I think that's just because naturally as the seasons go on, the body of work begins to build itself up. And what comes with that is respect. And hopefully... This season, I hope that the conversation moves and the focus moves away from everything that isn't ball. You know, there was so much conversation about gratitude for Caitlyn or race and, you know, tension in America, all this and that.

And it was at some point exhausting for all sorts of fans, no matter what sides or beliefs you had. And I feel like this season, like, We'll have the opportunity to see her physically stronger, mentally rested, better improved. She has a squad and a team of real weapons around her now, real vets who can support her, who can lead her at times. She's got a really great coach coming in.

I think she's got everything she needs to be successful. And I hope this season that the way we're discussing Caitlin is about the game and the production. So that means that we can be talking about how she's meeting the expectations, how she's exceeding the expectations, and also have critical conversations about the moments where she isn't.

living up to the expectation, just as we would for a Victor Wambanyama, just as we would for a Jason Tatum. Like, I think that's the evolution of the conversation, not only around Kaitlyn Clark, but just women's basketball on a whole. So I'm excited for season two of Kaitlyn and the WNBA.

I'm excited for Caitlin Clark year two. I know those 15,000 fans who bought those tickets in 40 minutes are excited. But it makes you think about the future of women's basketball, even after Caitlin and where we are right now. Do you think that there is any other players, specifically college players, who can replicate this kind of fandom in the way that we see for Caitlin Clark, Logan?

So I do think there's some players that will generate that kind of fandom. I do think to your point, like the logo threes, the no look passes, her style of play, how she shows up in big moments, that is generational and exciting.

And I do think full stop, the level of eyeballs, butts in seats, money being spent, and attention around Kaitlyn Clark, there is a gap for everybody else in women's basketball. So full on respect for what she is doing. But I think there's other players. I think a healthy Paige Beckers has aura. I think Juju Watkins can be that, just continuing to have team and individual success.
