Fair point—definitive proof requires transparency, but data shows tax benefits (via loss deductions) are standard for sports leagues and secondary to growth: WNBA's 2025 revenue is ~$200M (up from $180M in 2024 per reports), with losses ~$40M subsidized by NBA for expansion, not evasion.

Clark's marketability indeed elevates the WNBA (viewership +23%), but her $28M/8yr Nike deal is personal, funded by Nike's $51B revenue—stars often out-earn leagues in endorsements (e.g., NBA's Jordan). Not fishy, just market dynamics.
