The United States is quite famous for its basketball diaries. It embraces a national league for basketball. NBA and WNBA, they are all similar in every aspect, except for the male and female counterparts.

The Women's National Basketball Association in the USA is a phase to get going all over, but it still needs time to get to the level of the NBA. If everything is same in these leagues, fans keep on pondering whether the salaries paid to the male players equals to that of the female protagonists. Is there any correspondence on the payment method and payment figures?

Well, I will be providing some information here, regarding the same. 

So, let's start by talking about Maya April Moore's personal life.

Maya’s Personal Life:

Maya and her Mother, a bond that is stronger and far beyond any other connections.

Maya was raised up by her single mother, Kathryn Moore. Maya is a Xerox copy of her mother. They both sound identical. There is only a little difference. Otherwise, they seem the same invoice and the way or style of speaking. Kathryn opts in to choose perfect words for her conversation. She tends to take some pauses so that she could select some better arguments. Maya, as stated earlier as a copy of her mother, manages to do the same.

Born on 11th of June, 1989, in Jefferson City, Missouri, Maya has been able to set records after records in the game. The world has already admitted that Maya April Moore has already started creating a legacy of her own.

Maya’s Salary and Net Worth:

Female basketball stars, as compared to their male counterparts in the NBA, earn not as much of salary. Maya Moore, being a lady basketball player, is no exception.

A recorded $150,000 net worth in 2015, Maya annually earns a sum of $60,000. These records seem very little, but as per the fan base and craze for WNBA, these amounts are in great height. For a detailed study of Maya’s income.

The fans and the public must continually support and promote the WNBA if they want their female stars to collect much more than they are being remunerated currently.

Let’s have a look at a tweet talking about Maya’s salary:

Landing gold in Rio !

Women's basketball Olympic veteran Maya Moore is returning to the Rio Olympics for her second gold medal, first being in London Olympics 2012 and the forward thinks her all-star squad has a good shot of obtaining it and establishing the world dominance again.

"The core [players] have been pretty solid for the past 5 years," Moore, Veteran Minnesota Lynx WNBA player, told PEOPLE before her Olympic team headed to Rio de Janiero.

 "But USA basketball is fun, it's easy. It's the best of the best, the people you respect on the court."

2016 ESPY player of the year, Maya Moore alongside fellow WNBA superstars Sue Bird, Elena Delle Donne, Brittney Griner and Diana Taurasi are All-star USA team and are pretty sure to land gold.

"It's funny, the people you are trying to beat every night [in the WNBA] are on your team now and we have awesome coaches and staff to take care of us," said Moore, 27.

 "We play so hard and overall the Olympics are such a positive experience."

US are set to compete for gold medal against Spain in Rio on August 21.

Let's have a look at some of the tweets from the public regarding Maya Moore gameplay:


Nasty Women? Really?

Veteran Maya Moore continued to show her passion for the game into the do-or-die Game 5 Minnesota Lynx-Los Angeles Sparks matchup and that too coming off a 31-point Game 4 performance.

Although Sparks had a slight edge in the match, thanks to Candace Parker who scored 28 points and led Sparks to dethrone the champion Lynx. But, before a commercial break, ESPN2 then telecasted highlights of Moore, and as they rolled the footage, one of the announcers, Rebecca Lobo, insulted Moore by calling her "such a nasty woman."

Although it is not clear, what might be the meaning of the word nasty? It must have felt bad !

Well, I would like to wish Maya an excellent future. Hope her career reaches a great height, and she establishes herself as a basketball legend.

All the best Maya. The fan base is always with you, cheering and rooting for you.

GOOD LUCK and ALL THE VERY BEST, MAYA MOORE!
