  1. Just can’t help to laugh when you read “revenue sharing” for an organization that losses millions of dollars. Without NBA sugar daddies this league would have moved to Europe years ago.

    1. You clearly know very little about the WNBA, either historically or its current trajectory. You are also clearly a misogynist who thinks women’s sports are not only inferior to men’s sports but cannot exist without men.

    2. Just had to know there would be a guy like Don who couldn’t pass up the opportunity to be sexist

    3. The trajectory of the WNBA did not start until Caitlin Clark entered the league.
      And it is true that the WNBA is subsidized by the NBA.
      The WNBA is still losing tens of millions of dollars.
      Better hope Clark does mot get injured again. Ratings and viewership plummeted when she was out,

    4. Final G,
      Very true!
      The WNBA players wearing the shirts saying “ Pay us what you owe us “
      was a joke.
