WNBA valuations could approach NHL level, investors suggest

Jason Wright, associated with Project Level, outlined potential growth for WNBA valuations at a Front Office Sports event on August 3. He indicated that valuations have risen from approximately $250 million to $414 million in a year, fueled by increased viewership and investment in women's sports. Wright noted that average viewership for WNBA regular season games surpasses that of the NHL, which might help narrow the valuation gap. The Summit, an NWSL team, achieved record attendance for a home match in March, reinforcing the stability of this upward trend.
