WNBA Star A’ja Wilson Could See Salary Skyrocket From $200K to $1 Million+ Under New Pay Deal

A’ja Wilson is on the verge of a major payday — and the numbers are turning heads.

The Las Vegas Aces superstar, who currently earns around $200,000 annually, could see her income skyrocket under the WNBA’s new collective bargaining agreement, which is expected to dramatically reshape player salaries.

Under the proposed deal, top-tier players could earn more than $1 million per season — a massive jump from the league’s current pay structure, where even the highest salaries fall well below that mark.

The new agreement also includes revenue-sharing components and a significantly higher salary cap, signaling a major shift in how players are compensated as the league continues to grow.

For Wilson — widely considered one of the league’s biggest stars — the changes could mean doubling her career earnings in just one season once the new deal kicks in.

With the WNBA entering a new financial era, players like Wilson aren’t just winning on the court — they’re finally getting paid like it.
