After a one-year hiatus due to health concerns amid the COVID-19 pandemic, Liz Cambage will make her return to the WNBA. She will be under a bigger spotlight after signing with the Los Angeles Sparks.

Cambage has been in and out of the WNBA, largely because of her reluctance with the contracts. The Sparks center doesn't want to sell herself short, especially knowing how good of a player she is. But the league's rules prevent her from earning more.

In an interview with ESPN, the 30-year-old Cambage, who has played in China and her home country Australia, pushed for higher salaries for WNBA players.

“I’ve been vocal since day one, I sat out five seasons because I get paid five to eight times more overseas a season than I do in the WNBA. And it's hard when you want to be at home, America is home to me now and I want to spend as much time as I can here. But a lot of women go overseas and spend eight months in China or Europe to make their main money. It’s hard when you have the ‘best league' in the world, but we’re not treated like the best athletes in the world.”

The salary issue has long been lamented by other WNBA stars, and Cambage made very strong points. While the league is becoming more progressive, especially with the help of NBA stars who are advocating for women's hoops, the players are still hoping to get better treatment and respect.
