In the NBA, athletes get paid between 90 000 and over 1 million dollars per year. In the WNBA, athletes get paid between 30 and 100 thousand. 150 thousand if they are really good. I personally think that they should be paid the same, but the NBA is older and has much more fans than the WNBA.

Just a little bit ago I was looking at the WNBA salaries compared to the NBA salaries. The results are SICK! The minimum a NBA first year player gets is around $400,000 and for a woman first year minimum is a whopping $32,000 on average. A freaking doctor gets more than that!!
LOTS of practice. It takes unbelievable determination. You need to have alot of patience, perseverence, and all of the important things necessary to fulfill a dream. It takes alot of mental strength. Oh and you have to be really really good. Like scoring 15 pints a game in COLLEGE. (Make it to college first :-)!)
