The WNBA’s stars aren’t asking to be paid an equal dollar amount to NBA players, however. WNBA players have made progress on salaries since 2020, when they reached their latest collective bargaining agreement with the league. Sharing the revenue pieBecause it’s a smaller and younger league, women’s players have had less bargaining power with team owners over their pay than men. While NBA players receive 50% of total NBA revenue, the WNBA must hit a certain revenue threshold annually before any revenue sharing agreements kick in. This has held back women’s salaries.

It comes at a time when women's sports generally — from basketball to soccer and even volleyball — are attracting new viewers. Last week's college women's basketball championship game between the Hawkeyes and the South Carolina Gamecocks, meanwhile, snagged more viewers than any basketball — women or men, college or pro — since 2019, ESPN said. It's not just women's college ball that's luring eyeballs. Attendance at US women's pro soccer games increased by 23% in 2023, according to National World Soccer League commissioner Jessica Berman.

Then, against all odds and all coaching philosophies, she is likely to do so again, and again, and again. And she needs mental resilience to maintain that level of play without losing confidence or focus when things aren’t going smoothly. Many of those skills are built in the gym with Lindsay Alexander, the associate strength and conditioning coach for Iowa’s women’s basketball team. Players do squats and deadlifts, and use a bench press to improve their upper-body and core strength. Ms. Alexander focuses particularly on strengthening players’ legs, which are especially important for shooting.

One way to view the meteoric growth of women’s college basketball is through the career arc of its current protagonist: Caitlin Clark, the University of Iowa’s stone-cold mad bomber. Her first college game came in an eerily quiet setting: no fans, players spaced out on bleachers and some wearing masks to protect against the coronavirus. Eventually that season, the atmosphere livened up with cardboard cutouts in the seats. Her last game will come this weekend in an altogether different environment: a packed-to-the-rafters arena in Cleveland that will roar with her every touch, untold millions tuning in on television and Clark as a million-dollar pitch woman starring in national commercials.

Many of these student-athletes have full-ride athletic scholarships that cover their tuition and fees, course-related books, and room and board. What's more, landing an athletic scholarship often isn't enough to fully pay for one's college education. While 2% of high-school athletes receive an athletic scholarship, Strasman said only about 1% receive a full-ride scholarship that fully covers expenses like tuition, books, and room and board. While any scholarship money is better than none, there's no guarantee those funds will be there all four years. "I would say likely the kids that have the biggest paydays that we're hearing about are often already on scholarship," Strasman said.

Performance is also straightforward to measure, as NIL campaigns typically live on Instagram or TikTok, where "likes" and views can help benchmark engagement.

The company, which worked with NIL firm Opendorse on its first foray into student-athlete marketing, said it also plans to offer career planning and mentorship to players.
