The common person has no idea how much the WNBA actually makes and how many jerseys are actually sold. You and I both seem to know that the number is astronomically lower in comparison to the NBA, obviously…
      But it is reasonably fair for her to point out that she doesn’t even get %1 off a Jersey with her name on it. That is kind of crazy. And if I was interviewing her I’d be honestly surprised as well…
      If you have context to provide from the entire interview then by all means provide it. But just going off this clip, again, “spineless cowards”!? That’s a stretch and weird behind the veil of an anonymous computer screen kind of talk. Cmon now.

      She didn't explain the entire situation as they do get paid for jersey sales but, they have to hit a certain milestone in order to do so. My guess is, Nike spends so much money making the jerseys and before they get paid for the sales, Nike has to make their money back plus some and that milestone has never been met. With the NBA, that milestone is met every single year. Also, if they were to get paid the same percentage as the NBA, they'd be paying the league as they've never turned a profit.

    The WNBA paying the same percentage would bankrupt the company. They cannot afford to do that. They’d have to move into smaller arenas, it’s not free to play in 20,000 seat arenas. They’d have to drive or fly themselves to games, transportation is expensive. They wouldn’t even be making more than they are now, really, they’d be making around the same money they already are. The problem in the WNBA is the profit of the company is outweighed by the yearly spending to even keep it afloat.

    Average wnba salary is .00125 and

The nba players make a smaller percentage the only difference is one business makes over 100x more money and the players get paid better for advertisments and for jersey stuff.

    I appreciate this clarification because I've never seen an interview where someone actually provided this important context. However, it's probably more complicated than bumping their revenue share from 10% to 50%. The average operating income for an NBA team is $70 million while the wnba is still not profitable. I think the NBA is still providing a $15 million dollar subsidy to help cover operating expenses like travel. That would mean the NBA would have to cover any increase in WNBA player pay. But the league is gaining traction. Hopefully, their viewership will rise to a level to make this happen for them.

    The WNBA has consistently lost money for years, so if they are sharing revenue then you owe them.... $450,000 each.

      @@lebron870 The WNBA is a business that turns no profit. They put no asses in the seats nor faces in front of televisions. So you tell me: how does (she) and the WNBA “deserve way more money”? And don’t tell me because they do the same thing as the men; which is a bunch of feminist garbage! Sports, like any other business, is a results driven business - stop it 🛑
