Odds for Clark to Olympics as a sub for Taurasi or Griner up to at least 50/50.

Collier’s also out with plantar fasciitis.

WNBA merchandise sales are up 500% this season, the Sports Business Journal reported earlier this week, and its rookie stars are fueling a record pace. Clark (No. 1) and Reese (No. 2) have the league’s top-two selling jerseys this year, part of a 1,000% increase in player-specific merchandise sales, according to Fanatics.

 

The WNBA recently agreed to a record-$2.2 billion television contract that the head of the WNBA players union said might have undervalued the league’s worth at the moment. ESPN will pay the WNBA $200 million annually for the next 11 years, as compared to about $30 million per year during the current deal.

NBA, WNBA Media Rights Should Still Be Sold Together: Adam Silver (sportico.com)

 

New $2.2 Billion Media Deal Still Undervalues WNBA, Experts Say (forbes.com)

 

Cheryl Miller rips 'lowball' WNBA media rights deal (awfulannouncing.com)

 

 

Miller basically asking for a number FOUR times the $2.2-2.6 billion rights deal just recently signed.

That would put them in the $8.8-10.4 billion valuation range.

NBA package just signed was for $75 billion for the NBA.
