Standing at 6 feet tall, Clark initially partnered with Nike in 2022. Prior to the WNBA Draft, she hinted at an impending deal with the apparel giant during an appearance on “Saturday Night Live,” sporting a conspicuous black jacket emblazoned with a prominent “N.” This represents her maiden endorsement since transitioning into the professional realm.
