“I’m living beyond my means!” joked the WNBA star.

And that was not the first time that she publicly discussed players’ wages in the WNBA.

But the 22-year-old has also explained how she is grateful for the amount she earns.

“Being able to play for what, four to five months, and get $75,000 on top of the other endorsements that I’m doing, I think it’s a plus for me,” she said in May 2024.

“Being able to make six figures within three months [in Unrivaled], being able to be housed in Miami, just being able to get better …. I think it’s amazing.”

Unrivaled is a 3-on-3 basketball league which features 36 WNBA players and offers the highest salaries in women’s sports history – with the average salary reportedly worth around $220,000 – close to the WNBA’s maximum base salary – according to AP.

While MARCA reports that the 36 players are paid at least $100,000 – and are also offered equity in the organisation.

However, the aforementioned figures are still a far cry away from the wages received by NBA stars, with Golden State Warriors point guard Steph Curry reportedly having earned $51.9m during the 2023/24 season.

In comparison, the highest-paid WNBA star was the Las Vegas Aces player Jackie Young who reportedly earns around $252,000 per year on her current contract.
