Detractors will tell you that the WNBA lost $40 million last year:<\/p>\n<p>Even streamers decided to give their input:<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m just here to report the facts and not give my opinion on this whole thing, but apparently this decision was made this morning in a player&#8217;s only meeting according to Kelsey Plum:<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/stool_hosted.cbf11ad8.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"jsx-254148342 \"\/>Advertisement<\/p>\n<p>The most impressive part about that is that they managed to get those t-shirts turned around in time.
