If you want to give a rich WNBA or NBA player even more money, you can buy their direct clothing or product line 👍

Yes? I’m just saying the NBA and WNBA each have their own licensing $ pools and most of that money never gets to the players but like 2% of the revenue might get split among the WNBA players

that includes more than merch. it includes ticket sales, concession sales, tv/media rights, parking, team sponsorships, and literally any/all basketball related income. over half legally has to go back to the players. the WNBA doesnt have that protection
