Do they really? I would be pretty surprised if they made that much. The highest paid euro men’s players only make like 2-3m IIRC
some of them make pretty good money overseas
and its all in cash of its in Russia

Despite all this, the WNBA's claims of financial distress have helped produce a very favorable agreement for the league. WNBA players are paid a lower share of revenue than their NBA counterparts, and the WNBA owners get to pocket the difference. But is this actually helpful to the league's future? Going back to Taurasi: like many WNBA stars, during the offseason she plays overseas, for UMMC Ekaterinburg in Russia. There, Taurasi's annual salary is $1.5 million, and earlier this year she announced that UMMC was paying her an additional six-figure sum to sit out the current WNBA season.

But seriously, if they really want to up the revenue they need to make it more appealing to the audience. Not that I particularly care to see some of these bull dykes dressed in such a way, but I'm thinking something along the lines of women's tennis or beach volleyball.
