The MEN'S version of the SPORT is a major League.

Professional women's basketball is NOT MAJOR at all.

Stop it

apparently it is in da majority of da world. talents playing overseas when they're not in the United States actually make a living but I digress

The top players in the world get paid pretty big salaries on the big Turkish Clubs. Chinese player Zhu Ting that anchored China to a gold medal in Rio has the biggest salary in the world around $1.6 mil a yr. Kim Yeon Koung from S. Korea was the top player in the world for years and probably makes around $1 mil as well

Seriously though, how do you always know what everyone on the planet is earning? You might be the only person on the planet that knows how much Zhu Ting gets paid off the top of his head

Without reading through all the other pages.

I respect their game, the sport and their athletic abilities. But when they think they should get paid the same as nba players while not considering the business end of things, I gotta laugh a little.

"Me being heterosexual and straight, and being vocal in my identity as a straight woman was huge,” Wiggins told the Union-Tribune. “I would say 98% of the women in the WNBA are gay women. It was a conformist type of place. There was a whole different set of rules they [the other players] could apply."

This dude right here has threatened to kill himself on multiple occasions if the new Avengers trailer didn’t drop by a certain date.

So when he says it’s still REAL to him, I fully believe it.
