Caitlin Clark is back in action and auction: 7 massive 1/1s at auction right now
It's a great time to be a Caitlin Clark collector . Her return to the court has spurred an onslaught of auction listings. Search eBay and you'll find a sea of $200,000 "Buy It Now" listings for rare Clark cards, but what's happening right now is unique: seven of her best 1/1s, arguably the most iconic Clark cards in existence, are live in auction houses at the same time.
This kind of perfect storm almost never happens in the hobby. The WNBA season has started, attention is high, and the biggest Clark collectors are gearing up to fight for what could be some of the most important cards of the decade.
The Caitlin Clark Effect
We see rookie frenzies every year, but Clark feels different. She isn't surrounded by the usual speculation or uncertainty. She is, by nearly all accounts, a lock to be one of the greatest to ever step on a WNBA court. There hasn't been this much certainty around a player since LeBron James.

Clark is already reshaping the sport. And her cards? They're reshaping the women's hobby market in ways we've never seen before. That belief is fueling some big bets. Rhomel Joshue Gutierrez , known as GucciRips on Whatnot and Mantel , owns one of the seven cards up for auction.
"If someone told you that you could go back in time and buy one of LeBron James' best rookie cards, would you do it?" he said. "Everyone talks about a 'generational talent.' But much more rarely there comes along a game-defining talent, someone whose legacy is culture shaping. Women's basketball will be defined as the era before Caitlin Clark and the era after."
Another collector, Val Coleman of Valcano Cards on WhatNot , pulled the Black Finite 1/1 in a break and still remembers the moment.
"I sounded like a screeching bird," the WNBA season ticket holder said. "I booked a flight that night to Michigan to pick it up in person. The seller drove two hours to meet me at the airport."

Val even plans to use some of the auction proceeds for animal rescue efforts.
'After that I just want to give back, I want to help out family and friends, and make sure I can continue selling cards to the amazing WNBA community on WhatNot. I am known for wild giveaways and freebies, so this will certainly help!'
So, which cards are we talking about?

Former WNBA Star Gets Ripped For 'Nasty' Hailey Van Lith Message
Former WNBA Star Gets Ripped For 'Nasty' Hailey Van Lith Message originally appeared on The Spun. Chicago Sky rookie Hailey Van Lith is trending on social media this weekend because of something she didn't even do. Advertisement The Sky selected Van Lith with the No. 11 overall pick in this year's WNBA Draft. She helped out her stock tremendously by averaging 17.9 points and 5.4 assists per game at TCU. Not only was she named Big 12 Player of the Year, she took the program to the Elite Eight. Van Lith is still trying to figure out her role in Chicago, but that hasn't stopped her from making an impact. The TCU product is currently averaging 5.2 points and 1.3 assists per game for the Sky. Despite getting off to a respectable start this season, Van Lith has been publicly called out by a five-time WNBA All-Star. During an appearance on the "Let Her Shoot" podcast, Angel McCoughtry questioned if Van Lith is in the WNBA because of her social media following. Advertisement "Hailey Van Lith, she's a decent player," McCoughtry said, via Sporting News. "Are there players out there who may be better than Hailey Van Lith? I believe so. They're not popular... If Hailey Van Lith had 10,000 followers, would she be in the league? Just her true talent, take away the followers." May 6, 2025; Chicago, IL, USA; Chicago Sky guard Hailey Van Lith (2) warms up before a WNBA game against the Minnesota Lynx at Wintrust Arena. Mandatory Credit: Kamil Krzaczynski-Imagn ImagesKamil Krzaczynski-Imagn Images It didn't take long for WNBA fans to rip McCoughtry for this message. "That's so nasty man," one fan said. "HVL had a successful college career and lead TCU to an elite 8 in the '25 NCAA tourney after they were a 2nd round exit in the WBIT the szn prior. It's normal for rookies to struggle, most take an adjustment period. Sucks to see old ppl be so hateful." Advertisement "The way the WNBA media covers their league is so toxic," a second fan wrote. "It's fair to ponder Hailey Van Lith's upside as a player. It's also reasonable to debate her fit with the Chicago Sky. But to suggest she would not be qualified to be in the WNBA if she didn't have a large social media following is…an asinine stretch of a take," another fan replied. "This is the dumbest thing I've ever heard," a fourth person commented. Van Lith has not responded to McCoughtry's claim. At this point, she wouldn't gain anything from it. Fans will get to see Van Lith in action this Saturday against the Phoenix Mercury.
