What A Surprised As Serena Williams’ husband Alexis Ohanian is interested in finding out more about Caitlin Clark and Angel Reese’s private life…. Read More
The Reddit founder is keen to know more about what goes on away from the courts of the WNBA.
Alexis Ohanian, founder of Reddit, said he wants the WNBA to replicate a behind-the-scenes documentary of the stars of women’s basketball as the billionaire is keen to learn more about Caitlin Clark and Angel Reese’s mentality.
After watching a show focusing on the National Women’s Soccer League players during which 11 were following throughout their time in Miami during the offseason allowing fans a rare insight to the life of a professional athlete.
Offseason seems to be a success and the format in general is becoming popular with examples such as the NBA’s Starting Five on Netflix which follows the Los Angeles Lakers’ LeBron James or the All Or Nothing documentary following Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City in European soccer.
As a result, fans call for the Offseason show to be introduced to the WNBA to follow icons such as the Indiana shooting guard and the Chicago Sky forward, as well as Sabrina Ionescu or A’ja Wilson.
“I couldn’t agree more,” said Ohanian, who is married to Serena Williams, via X.com, formerly Twitter, after a fan asked for the show to follow professional women’s basketball in the United States.
Could an WNBA show work?
The social media founder, who has Armenian heritage, has also entered the documentary world when he produced a series following the NY Gotham’s Midge Purce so he has experience when it comes to knowing what he’s talking about.
The WNBA started its offseason period back in September too, so it could be possibly to quickly get some players on board and begin filming prior to the 2025 campaign which tips off in May next year.
Additionally, with players like Reese complaining about the amount of money they earn on their WNBA salaries, it might not take too much convincing to get them onboard if Ohanian dangles some $50 notes in front of them.
