Ex-WNBA star Liz Cambage shares message to female players after OnlyFans move image

Former WNBA star Liz Cambage has some stark advice for female basketball stars still playing in the league. 

Cambage, who left the WNBA in the middle of the 2022 season and has since become a creator on the OnlyFans website, is suggesting that they find alternate sources of income off the court. 

She claims that she earned more money in her first week on the adult content creator website than she did during her entire career playing basketball. 

While walking through LAX airport, Cambage told "TMZ" athletes should find other ways to make money outside of playing the sport that they love. 

"You know the WNBA salary is not that hard to make more money doing anything," Cambage told the outlet. "I feel like women gotta make more money playing the sport they love."

"I think everyone has gotta get it how they can," she added, while walking through the airport in an oversized mink coat. 

"Just be you. Stick to your personality. I feel like back in the day, there wasn't an opportunity or a space for women to be who they are, but now, I feel like women being more girly or earning their sexuality more, and it's fun," Cambage continued.

WNBA players and league clash over CBA as expiration looms

Cambage's comments come in light of the upcoming expiration of the league's collective bargaining agreement (CBA), which has resulted in some players threatening the 2026 season. 

Players are hoping to change things before the league's CBA expires at the end of October. 

The league and the WNBA Players' Association are currently at odds over revenue sharing, officiating standards, and the expansion of the season to 44 games without an expansion of roster sizes.
