Sources: frontofficesports.com, ESPN: “The WNBA has reported significant financial losses over the years, with estimates suggesting it lost around $10 million per year on average until 2018, and projected losses of about $50 million in 2024. More recently, the league has claimed it could face “hundreds of millions of dollars” in losses due to proposals from the players’ union, although the exact figures remain unclear due to the private nature of the league’s financial records.”
