Ask Derrick Rose

Seriously though, I don't consider the WNBA a basketball league. Can't really answer your question.

must be on her period.

but for real though women get paid like 10x more money to play overseas, she is "resting" for her real season. this is like LeBron James sitting out playing for Team USA so he can rest for the NBA.

According to this article: http://espn.go.com/wnba/story/_/id/1...15-wnba-season

Her Euro team is the one that actually asked her to sit out the season, and they're paying her 15x what she's earning in the WNBA.

Her WNBA salary is $100K per year. A Russian team is paying her $1.5 million PLUS her $100K salary so that she sits out the WNBA season. It just goes to show how frail of a league the WNBA is.

Is she the Euroleague GOAT, yet?

Bran has never missed a full 2 weeks of basketball.

Kobe did sit out last season to "rest" though

Her Russian team is paying her full WNBA salary to rest. Smart thing to do but sucks for the few WNBA fans out there

Even China pays like $600k per year.

I think men should counter the feminist movement by protesting the WNBA. They should say that it's a sexist league that doesn't allow men to participate. They should say it's a workplace that discriminates based on gender. After all, women are able to tryout for the NBA right? And Brittany Griner did, I believe, but got denied because she wasn't good enough.

Either that, or some kind of transgender should try to get into the WNBA and absolutely dominate
