Marieme Badiane Net Worth & Salary in 2025: WNBA Earnings, Waiver Status, and Career Update

Marieme Badiane has an estimated net worth of $300,000, according to Sporty Salaries. This figure includes her combined earnings from over a decade of professional basketball across eight different teams globally, along with sponsorship income.

As per Spotrac, Badiane signed a one-year deal with the Minnesota Lynx worth $66,079. This amount also serves as her cap hit for the 2025 season.

Her past contracts from stints overseas have not been disclosed publicly.

For the 2025 season, Badiane’s salary with the Lynx was listed at $66,079. This is also her total cap and dead cap value.

She was later waived by Minnesota. If no team claims her during the 48-hour waiver period, she will officially become a free agent and can sign with any WNBA team.

A noticeable pattern this season has been the release of European players ahead of EuroBasket. These athletes often prioritize playing for their national teams over limited WNBA roles.

In Badiane’s case, with a smaller role in Minnesota’s rotation, she opted to represent her country at EuroBasket. The Lynx, in turn, chose to waive her to open up roster flexibility.
