The WNBA loses money each year, about $10 million per year, according to commissioner Adam Silver, and that amount is covered by the NBA.
Despite the fact of losing money, former Golden State Warriors head coach Mark Jackson is calling on the WNBA to give its players the funds … telling TMZ Sports he hopes it gets to a point where they no longer have to play overseas in the offseason.
“Hopefully, financially, we put these women, professional athletes specifically the WNBA women, in a position where they don’t have to add additional income to their accounts.”
