Whenever I talk to people who follow sports, but not the WNBA, and the subject of players playing elsewhere in the offseason comes up, this always results in the person having a lower perception of the league. Given the relatively large effort the league seems to be putting into coverage of overseas play recently, I am wondering how other people see it.

Is providing year-round coverage important to keep the league in people's minds? Does it just remind people that the league can't compete financially?

I don't think that 'coverage' per se is the problem. The fact that the players do play overseas in order to make more $ is what makes people think the league is 'less' than it should be/than they are used to from other pro teams.

But frankly I don't think anybody but us fan bodies pay attention to what the league puts out. And most fans are happy to see more coverage.

So I think your question skirts the issue.
