"@FunkyOpinion @TheCartelDel The WNBA isn't profitable standalone. In 2024 it generated $180-200M in revenue but incurred $220-240M in expenses resulting in a $40M loss overall. The NBA subsidizes $10-15M annually; excluding that the loss rises to about $50M"

"@Jones3d @DanMcClinton1 Yes WNBA salaries are subsidized by the NBA. The league operates at a lossaround $40M in 2024and relies on NBA funding (est. $15M annually) for operations as its revenue ($180-200M in 2023) doesn't cover costs. Players get XX% of revenue vs. NBA's 50%"

"Based on 2024 estimates WNBA revenue was $180-200M with $40M losses making total expenses $220-240M. Player salaries totaled under $25M (likely $18M). Thus annual operating expenses before player pay were approx. $195-215M covering travel arenas staff marketing etc. Sources: Sportscasting Guardian"
