Didn't read the thread but you can be sure that absolutely no-one outside the U.S. has never even heard of her.
In Europe, she is getting pretty big. I can tell you that every hardcore NBA fan in my country knows who she is. Also, her WNBA salary is obviously tiny compared to NBA players, but that's because of the revenue, the WNBA as a whole has so much growing to do. But her sponsorship money is pretty good already, right? Doesn't she have a NIKE deal?
Yes her WNBA salary is only $78,000. NBA/G-League two-way players make more.
She's got deals with Nike, Gatorade, State Farm and a bunch of others. She signed an eight-year, $28 million contract with Nike.
Her estimated earning in 2024 was 11.1 million off the court. She's somewhere around 10th in female athletes behind #1 Coco Gauff and #10 Simone Biles, the rest I've never heard of, mostly tennis players.
Her last game was truly amazing. After being out 5 games with a injury she comes back with 38pt 8reb 9ast, and remember the women's game is only 40 minutes. Knocked off the best team in the W, the undefeated New York Liberty. She hit 3 3's in like 30 something seconds. 7-9 on 3's total, all but 1 were 28-30 ft, Curry like. I've never seen anything like that in the women's game. Nothing in the men's game except from Curry or Reggie. She scored or assisted on 44 of 88 points, which is exactly 50% of the team's points.
She has so many WBA all-time records I can't keep up and she's only played 1-1/4 seasons. Records that took players 8-10 years to achieve.
