very long article which I read in hard copy (Times on-line is at war with my computer and this may be behind a pay wall for some, so others may have to cut and paste key sections).
I don't follow professional basketball (men's or women's) but obviously weakness in or the end of the WNBA would have significant negative effects on the development of elite high school and college women's basketball, not to mention women's overall sense of agency in athletics. It may be that those of us who like the amateur game may have to bite the bullet and support the professional game as well.
