WNBA commissioner Cathy Engelbert announced that in 2023 the regular @wnba season will expand to 40 games.  Seeking to improve the player experience, Engelbert also announced that the league will be providing charter flights during the Finals. Furthermore, the playoff prize pool will rise with plans to increase the postseason bonus pools by almost 50 percent to a half-million dollars. The commissioner also discussed expansion citing that the goal is to add 2 WNBA teams by the 2025 season. In addition, Engelbert talked about the importance of negotiating the next TV deal (current deal with ESPN expires in 2025) citing that it’s her “top business priority” and is focused on making the league easier to watch and access.  (via CBSSports.com/Jack Maloney) #wnba #womenssports #womensbasketball #womeninsports
