1️⃣ Historic deal: Caitlin Clark has a new achievement that hasn’t been accomplished since Michael Jordan. The WNBA star signed a multiyear deal with the league’s official basketball supplier, making her the first female athlete to have her own collection with Wilson.
2️⃣ Overtourism: A small Japanese town put up a barrier to block an Instagrammable view of Mount Fuji. The photo spot became so popular with visitors that it was causing problems for locals.
