WNBA players do not deserve the pay that they think they deserve but they absolutely deserve a pay raise once the new media contract starts.  They want 50% of revenue like NBA players get but that is just not doable.  There is a minimum amount needed to run the league and that amount will eat up much more of WNBA revenue that it does NBA revenue just because of how big that revenue pool is.  Without having the financials in front of me which makes my opinion rather worthless I still feel like their pay should triple or 4x.  That is still only $4.5-6 million in salary but should be doable with the new media rights.

I've never seen a W player or union rep say they want 50%.   Just that they deserve more than 9.5% that they currently get.
