    My guess is that the WNBA has a higher FT% because you have to be a good shooter since no one is athletic or tall enough to play above the rim so there are less horrible free throw shooters dragging the average down.

      My best guess is women tend to have lower strength then men this also includes leg strength with is vital for jumping & with a slower run speed (because women have wider hips which makes them run slower then males) its no wonder the women have a hard time jumping 10ft.
      Both the NBA & the WNBA rims are 10ft high. That's just too high for most women to dunk, men with greater leg strength, faster movement (and higher stamina because men have bigger lungs & hearts by 60% allowing the blood to flow through the body faster) men can jump higher then women because of biological advantages (hence the whole trans athletics in women sports being hotly debated).
      IMO the rim should be dropped to 8ft - 8.5ft for the WNBA games, this will allow easier layups & dunking (also more consistent shot making as well) which will raise the skill floor & ceiling for the women's game & bring in more viewers.

    Here’s a fun fact about the WNBA: there have been over 11,000 games played since the league was formed. Almost 3% of those, or 336 games, have had a team score more than 100 points.

    • @VicerExciser
      @VicerExciser Год назад +18

      I mean sure, but the NBA didn't start regularly scoring over 100 until the 2000s. I grew up watching 90s basketball where it was far more common to see a score like 94-86. 100+ point games definitely happened but both teams getting 100+ was pretty rare. I'd actually be interested to see what percentage of all NBA games since being formed were 100+, the 1940s-1980s would really drag the overall average down despite the last 20 years of 100+ being so common. I'd venture it's not too far off from the WNBAs 3%.

      I'll give you one stat better; women ballers in Europe are PAID MORE. Why is that? Cuz Euroball puts way more emphasis on raw skill over athleticism, kinda similar to... the WNBA! That means a much larger audience wanting to watch them play. Look at the two best Euroballers in the NBA, Jokic and Doncic. They look like overgrown YMCA players, but are two of the most highly skilled players in the world.
      WNBA could do a lot of good for themselves if they recruited way more ATHLETES to play basketball. There are plenty of athletic women in MMA and Track & Field; put a basketball in their hands.

      And if you consider the fact that the NBA consisted of only EIGHT teams back then, it was infinitely more improbable to happen!
      Sort-of-fun fact: 1957 was also the first time that such a thing COULD happen, since it was the first time that there had been three different champions in the three previous years. The next time was one year later in 1958 and after that again in 1972. It was a regular occurrence in the 70s, super rare in the 80s and 90s (I think it was possible only once during the two decades), and relatively regular from 2001 onward.

When people are capable of consistently making shots from far beyond the 3 point like or running up and dunking the ball on 3 defenders, the less it feels like real basketball that you or I play. The WNBA is more realistic, more human, in that it's just people who love the game and are really good at it, rather than monsters/gods that came up/down from hell/heaven to slam a ball in a hoop.

    Brittney Griner needs only about a 8" vertical to dunk and she can only even manage to do it a couple times a season. The entire WNBA has lost double digits of $millions literally every year they've been in existence and the ONLY reason they get an income at all is because the NBA just gives them money as a charity case so they can exist. The fact that the players constantly complain about their salary is a joke.

    That stat about the WNBA player’s salary is unfair. You’re comparing a WNBA player to a G-League player, but WNBA is the highest level for women’s basketball.

      the average person just cares for the slam dunk but doesnt see the screen that opened up the back door cut or the person lobbing it up there. Not to gatekeep just Actual hoopers see the things behind the highlight reel and those are the people that will actually watch the wnba. The only thing is its hard to keep up with both. And the media doesnt do a good job hyping it up like march madness, the excitement just isnt there, thats part of the problem it takes money to promote the wnba but its a losing business so theyre stuck in a loop
