So those 23 players have an available roster spot
Also more players = increased likelihood of their being some hot ones I actually want to look at

Because if they had more teams they could have more roster spots for the best college players to make a final roster.

You are making the opposite point of the one you are trying to make. If there were only 8 NFL teams a lot of rookies that end up being great players would've been cut after the draft as well.

At least 23 people were spared the horror of flying commercial

Right now college WBB is putting out more talent than the league is prepared to accept.

The league itself already has more teams and roster spots than fans are willing to accept.

So we have this situation where players who are good enough to play in the league are cut because the league itself shouldn't exist in the first place.

this shouldn’t be a hard connection to make

there are currently more women basketball players than roster spots. it’s not like there are empty rosters and these players just sucked

I mean you just answered the question in your own post.

There's not enough roster spots for every player getting drafted. Unless said player is ready to play and contribute on day 1, she is getting cut. That is not the case for other sport leagues.

They should star with a developmental league but alas… that takes money they need to be gifted

I’ll be glad when this ripple of attention that the WNBA is getting settles down. Caitlin Clark doesn’t change the fact that the women’s game as a whole is a yawn fest.

WNBA is a DEI money pit. Never generates a profit but is a great public relations look for the NBA which covers all loses.

Pretty simple solution, they should just go play for the NBA. More spots.

Explain to me why you are making posts about the WNBA?

If you want more basketball find a YMCA team or AAU.

Also the big gal in the middle probably eats a whole jar of mayo as a snack.

The amount if teams isn't the issue the fact they loose money each season sould be the reason.

But the real issue is lack of chartered flights
