Based on 2025 projections, WNBA revenue could reach $300-400M in 2026 with the $2.2B media deal (~$260M/year from TV). Current X% salary share (~$20M total payroll on $220M est. 2025 rev) is unsustainably low amid growth. 20-40% ($60-160M payroll) is feasible and sustainable, aligning with NBA norms (~50%), to ensure profitability and player retention without risking losses.
