On the roster of the Las Vegas Aces, each player will receive a $ 100,000 sponsorship fee, courtesy of the Las Vegas Convention and the Visitor Authority.
It is according to the Las Vegas Review-Cords, stating that all 13 players have signed an agreement for the 2025 season.
This is the second consecutive season, The Tourism Group and ACES are partnership. Following the first deal announcement, WNBA announced that it was starting an investigation.
LVCVA president Steve Hill told the review-journey on Monday that his group had not been informed about the status of the investigation.
“I don’t know the internal functioning of the league,” Hill said. “I am not seeing much reason for an issue, and it doesn’t seem that there is an issue there. So we are just moving forward.”
Please also benefit from allowances such as concert tickets as part of sponsorship agreement. For the benefits for the organization, the report states that the social media views of the players’ conversations with the membership of the players at the time of the 2024 deal announced at least 2.2 million views on the X platform alone.
“The announcement made it a success, just everyone,” he said. “Las Vegas had a lot of attention and eyeball.”
Players’ commitment is to represent Las Vegas in various programs, including Formula One Las Vegas Grand Prix, and the deal was directly agreed with the players and the team was not input.
Hill said that the purpose of LVCVA’s sponsorship agreement was never intended to help the league’s salary cap skirt. In 2024, the league paid from $ 60,000 to a supermax deal ranging from $ 242,000.
“This was not in coordination with the team, and an attempt was made to support the salary cap,” Hill said according to the report. “It is just a sponsor that helps to draw attention to the players’ pay level. So it has been great to get those ambassadors out of there and make them a part of our marketing efforts.”
