A recent report from WNBA sources, including a team executive, reveals the league expects to lose $50 million this season. This comes despite extensive media coverage. Comparatively, the NBA, which earns over $10 billion annually, generated between $180-$200 million last season alone.
WNBA losses, estimated at $10 million per year by Commissioner Adam Silver since 2018, could total over $260 million since the league’s inception in 1997.
