Instead of playing this winter, in Europe, I just found out KLS has been hired by the NY Rangers to work with scoring reactions by the players

I dont know if this is the reason, but possibly it could be. Disposable income?Link for her stats:

This game summarizes the mysteries of the overseas game to the American basketball world. Fenerbahce fields Stewie, Kayla McBride, Satou Sabally, Emma Meesseman, European star Alina Iagupova, former WNBA draft pick and Wake Forest player Ivana Raca, Serbian national team player Mina Djordjevic, and several Turkish national team players. The winner of the game was going to sit in first place in the EuroLeague group for now and it is in a massive city in a country where as many as 20 million people claim to be Fenerbahce fans. The game draws under 500 spectators...
Even in past years, they never really seem to draw until a trophy is on the line. It is just hard to compare professional sports around the world to the United States when people are telling the WNBA to compete with overseas teams. It's great that the Aces have sold out their expensive season tickets, including their $20,000 ones. Meanwhile, Bourges, which may have the best track record of large numbers of fan support while actually charging something charges 400 euros for the best season tickets. The cheapest season tickets for the Liberty are $500 and the cheapest season tickets for Seattle are $630.I dont know if this is the reason, but possibly it could be. Disposable income?

Some will as they always have, but the money in Australia is not that great so players are generally giving up something in that department to play there.
