For Ajae Petty, the star forward from Ohio, 2025 didn’t exactly offer a dream professional debut. She did sign a training camp contract with the Minnesota Lynx, but only to be waived in the pre-season. However, when the season spelled a colossal disaster for the Dallas Wings — worst record and seven players down — Petty found her moment.

After head coach Chris Koclanes lost his 4th player, Luisa Geiselsoder, to a season-ending injury, he turned towards the OSU star who had helped her team to an undefeated record at home. As fate would have it, she was slated to make her debut on her 23rd birthday. But how has the forward been compensated?

What Is Ajae Petty’s Net Worth in 2025?

There are no publicly available records that disclose Ajae Petty’s exact net worth as of September 2025. Besides, hardly anything is known about her endorsements and NIL deals apart from the Opendorse merchandise.

What Are Ajae Petty’s Contract Details?

Had Ajae Petty signed with the Minnesota Lynx, she would have secured a rookie sum of $66,079. However, after being waived, her contract details remained void. But only until the Wings signed her on a 7-day hardship contract. Considering CBA provides a minimum of $64,154 for rookies with 0-2 years of experience, her weekly salary would be decided accordingly.

Ajae Petty Career Earnings

Only in her first her at the WNBA, Ajae Petty doesn’t have much to show for career earnings. The only available look into that would be her collaboration with the NIL store to share her Ohio State Merchandise.

Having said that, Petty graduated from the Ohio State University in 2024-25. Prior to that, she played for the LSU Tigers for two years, before transferring to Kentucky.  Petty played with the Wildcats for two seasons before joining Ohio for her final year.
