What is Christyn Williams’ Net Worth in 2025? All You Need to Know About Career Earnings of Dallas Wings’ New Addition

Christyn Williams’s journey has been nothing short of inspiring. A five-star recruit right out the gate, she swept every major high school honor before stepping into UConn. And she continued her dominant run there, carrying the Huskies to three Final Fours. However, her path to the pros wasn’t smooth. Drafted by Washington in 2022, a serious knee injury wiped out her rookie year. For many, that might have been the end. For Williams, it was just another challenge to conquer.

But she still has not gotten the shot she deserves. Since 2022, she has moved from Washington to Phoenix, to Minnesota, and finally now at Dallas. The Wings let her join their roster with an extreme hardship contract. But what exactly are the details of her contract? Let’s find that out along with her net worth, endorsements, and salary.

What is Christyn Williams’ net worth in 2025?

Christyn Williams’ net worth is estimated to be between $500,000 and $750,000 as of mid-2025. The exact figure is not public, but this range comes from her WNBA contracts along with endorsement opportunities. Her earnings could be higher than the estimate, but her limited time on the court has kept her net worth modest compared to other players. Williams has been signed by the WNBA since 2022, but she has played only one full game in the league at the time of writing.

She entered the league in 2022 as the 14th overall pick by the Washington Mystics. Unfortunately, a serious knee injury cut short her rookie season before it even began, and the Mystics waived her that April. She later signed a hardship contract with the Phoenix Mercury in 2023, though she didn’t see playing time in the two games she was on the roster. Her path back into the league has been challenging since.

She signed training camp deals with Phoenix in 2024 and with the Minnesota Lynx in 2025, but was waived both times after a few months. Still, Williams has kept fighting for opportunities, and on August 29, 2025, the Dallas Wings rewarded that perseverance by signing her to an extreme hardship contract. She finally made her WNBA debut against the Atlanta Dream, putting up two points and an assist in her first official appearance.

Contract and salary details of Christyn Williams

The Dallas Wings announced on August 29, 2025, that they have signed guard Christyn Williams to an extreme hardship contract. Under WNBA rules, teams must have at least eight active players available to take the floor. With a string of injuries leaving the Wings shorthanded, the league granted an exception. They let the team bring Williams on board to meet the minimum roster requirement. While the exact details of the Dallas Wings contract are unknown, it is safe to assume it will be near the mark of her previous salaries.

At the start of 2025, Christyn Williams signed an exclusive rights free agent one-year contract with the Minnesota Lynx worth $66,079. The Dallas Wings, who later picked her up on an extreme hardship contract, would have likely offered her something in a similar range. Before that, Williams was with the Phoenix Mercury, where she agreed to a one-year contract valued at $64,154. She wasn’t able to see through the full terms of that deal, but it added to her professional earnings.

As a rookie, the Washington Mystics signed her with a 3-year, $199,170 Restricted Free Agent contract with an average salary of $66,390. But her season-ending injury cut this contract short drastically. You may wonder why teams are betting so highly on her despite not playing a single season. Well, that has to do with the stellar records on her back in collegiate seasons.

Williams’ basketball career highlights

One major factor behind Williams’ Dallas signing could be her connections. Two of her 3×3 Basketball Association teammates, Serena Sundell and Amy Okonkwo, are already on the Wings roster. Williams competed alongside them this summer in Spokane. Earlier in March, she also played in Athletes Unlimited, where she averaged 7.8 points and 1.9 rebounds per game.

Her resume also shines from college. At UConn, she played four seasons, including two alongside current Wings guard Paige Bueckers. Williams started all 38 games in her freshman campaign, finishing with averages of 11.7 points and 3.2 rebounds. She was a key part of the Huskies’ upset win over top-ranked Notre Dame, scoring a career-high 28 points. That season for them ended in the 2019 Final Four, where UConn fell to the Irish, 81-76.

As a sophomore, she started 31 of 32 games and raised her averages to 14.6 points and 4.9 rebounds. The Huskies went 29-3 that year. By October 2020, her growing reputation earned her Big East Preseason Player of the Year honors. In 2020–21, Christyn Williams averaged 14.2 points and 3.4 rebounds. She helped UConn reach another Final Four appearance. Her senior season was equally strong. UConn finished 30-6 overall, advancing to the national championship game for the first time since 2016. The Huskies ultimately fell to South Carolina in Minneapolis.

Williams closed her final season averaging 14.2 points and 3.4 rebounds. On April 1, 2022, Williams received the Ann Meyers Drysdale Award, given annually to the nation’s best shooting guard. She became the first UConn player ever to win the award. While her list of accolades on the court is long, she has an equally strong impact outside the court.

What brands are endorsed by Williams?

With her strong collegiate resume on her back, Williams has been endorsing multiple brands throughout her career. She has signed NIL deals during her time with UConn. Her resume of brand deals includes Sling (live TV streaming service), Goli Nutrition (Popular apple cider vinegar gummy brand), Wings Over (restaurant), Maruchan Ramen (Instant Lunch Noodles), and TIAA (financial services company). Williams was also an entrepreneur with her own clothing line, Curate the Wave, an athletic and streetwear brand founded in her hometown of Little Rock, Arkansas. However, it is best to note that all these endorsements are from the time when Williams was a UConn athlete. Now with a gap of three years, it is possible the endorsement contracts may have expired. She might not be affiliated to these brands anymore.

Her atheletic clothing lineup however had a bold tagline, “We live by choice, not by chance,” a phrase that perfectly reflects Christyn Williams’ mindset and journey. She not only promotes the message but also embodies it in the way she approaches both basketball and life.
