Less Than 1% of Male Counterpart's Salary: U.S. Basketball Pay Gap Storm | Vantage with Palki Sharma
Basketball star Caitlin Clark will make $76,535 from her women's league salary. Clark's NBA counterpart will earn $10.5 million from his salary. Clark was the top draft pick for women's basketball league WNBA, yet her she has received a staggeringly low starting salary. And this is drawing outrage. Clark's salary is lower than some NBA mascots even. And this is not just about one player. Women receive around 10% of the WNBA league's revenue, while men get 50% of the NBA revenue. And this is not just about the U.S. or one sport. Gender pay gap exists across sports and nations. There are some anomalies. Like the U.S. football that decided to equalise pay in 2022. Or India, New Zealand, and England that have equalised pay in cricket. But why are other sports lagging behind? Palki Sharma tells you.
