Cheryl Miller Criticizes WNBA's $2.2 Billion Media Deal

The Hall of Famer argues the league's new contract undervalues its growing popularity and potential.

  • Miller labels the $2.2 billion deal as a 'lowball' offer, suggesting the league deserves significantly more.
  • The WNBA's current media deal, worth $60 million annually, expires after the 2025 season.
  • The NBA, which owns 60% of the WNBA, negotiated the new deal.
  • Despite record viewership and ticket sales, the WNBA is projected to lose $50 million this year.
  • WNBA union director Terri Jackson also expressed concerns over the deal's valuation.
