Owners have little financial reason to support the league.


They never have. The reason they support it is to avoid the wrath and outrage of all sorts of feminist, "progressives" and bellyachers, when financially it makes 0 sense for them subsidize crap that there isn't a market for.

Not really. There was already an independent league, the ABL. The NBA could easily have stayed out of the way.

They just subsidized the WNBA to kill off the competition, just in case WBB ever became profitable on the pro level.
