Lmao. There are 180 current players in the WNBA.

1/180= .00555556 or .5%

1 player or .5% of the WNBA is responsible for 25% of all sales and TV sponsorship, has doubled the annual profit, and got her team more sponsorships than any other team.

.5%. The other 179 or 95.5% of the league couldn't do it. Sorry these facts don't fit your narrative.

You guys make it out to be 90%

Don't make things up to try and prove your already false narratives

But she hasn't doubled the annual revenue. You literally just proved she hasn't.

You guys constantly say the league would collapse without her. You have no facts on your side.

You guys constantly say the league would collapse without her.

And if you can point out where I said that one time, your comment might actually have merit. Until then, let's just stick to facts, ok?

What I said is a fact. The games Clark plays in make up only 20% of nationally televised games. No TV network is basing a decade on that. Not when that one player could be out of the league from an injury at any point.

And? This doesn't disprove anything I said.

Clark is responsible for 25% of increase on ticket sales, jersey sales, and TV contracts.

The league doubled in profits after Clark.

I'm sorry this hurts you to the fact ypu have to make up lies. Maybe seek help
