It’s hard to understate Caitlin Clark’s value.
And one place you absolutely will not do that is at an auction.
The Indiana Fever megastar, who is still out due to a groin injury, is making waves in the world of sports memorabilia, though not by her own doing.
Clark’s 2024 Panini Flawless Logowoman rookie card, a one-of-one edition featuring an autographed jersey patch sold for a whopping $317,000 at auction on Saturday.
The auction began at a comparatively modest $50,000 on July 11, ending on Saturday at over six times the original amount.
They auctioned 21 bids, according to Goldin Auctions, and quickly doubled to $100,000 at the auction just over 40 minutes after the initial bid.
The bidding reached $180,000 within two days, which was the top price until a bidder came in at $200,000 on July 30.
As of August 9, the highest bidder was committed to a $260,000 purchase.
This was one of three Clark Logowoman cards released through Panini America’s 2024 Rookie Royalty WNBA collection.
The Immaculate Logowoman sale comes after a record-breaking $660,000 auctioned off for Clark’s Flawless Logowoman 1/1 at Fanatics Collect last month.
That’s the record holder for any women’s sports card at public auction, per Yahoo.
This marks the third time Clark’s cards have sold for over $300,000.
Clark, due to injuries, has been limited to just 13 appearances this season.
To this point in the year, she has averaged 16.5 points, 8.8 assists and 5.5 turnovers per contest.
She’s only shooting 36.7 percent from the field this season, and her 3-point shooting has dropped off to 27.9 percent.
The Fever, however, have found a way to pick up the pieces and be a contender in the league. They currently sit at No. 5 in the WNBA (18-14), firmly in the playoff race as they await Clark’s return, though that date is unknown for the time being.
