Because people actually go to NBA games. People don't go to WNBA games. Salaries are direct results of how much money teams make.
No one cares about the WNBA it's a niche & a small one. Highschool football in just Texas has more people that care about it then the entire WNBA.
I mean I don't even give two shits about basketball or honestly sports period but I know millions do and markets set pricing based on demand. The WNBA is about as in demand as used personal hygiene products. Sorry, not sorry.
Perhaps the headline should be "person manages to make a solid living playing a game that nobody watches"? That seems to be the reality and a much more positive look at the situation.
I can't think of a game I enjoy playing that I wouldn't play for six months a year for that money and be quite glad about it. And without looking into it any further it appears that it's some 'reporter' not the player who's pissed about it.
