WNBA players know their league doesn’t make NBA money.
But currently, NBA players receive 50% of all league revenue, whereas the WNBA players receive just 9.3%.
According to Nneka Ogwumike, the president of the WNBA players association, the league offered players a fixed percentage of revenue, but the union wants a model where “our salaries grow with the business, and not just a fixed percentage over time.”I saw this on X yesterday and it made me chuckle.
But when the entire business is propped up on a subsidy...starts to make more sense.And Ms. Ogwumike's quote is confusing.
Won't your earnings on a fixed percentage grow with the business, even if the percentage stays the same?
