Courtney Williams arrived with the experience of a proven WNBA guard and a reputation for game‑changing energy. Her quick adaptation to Cheryl Reeve’s system added firepower and personality to a roster seeking renewed dominance.
Known for her fearless mid‑range shooting and relentless hustle, she became more than a scoring option—she emerged as a tone‑setter on both ends. That shapes the locker room dynamic in Minnesota Lynx.
Behind that impact lies her latest contract, a two‑year agreement that reflects the value the team sees in her veteran presence. Structured with security and purpose, it ties her future to a franchise with big postseason ambitions.
What is Courtney Williams’ salary with the Minnesota Lynx?
Courtney Williams is under a fully guaranteed two-year, $355,000 contract with Minnesota, averaging $177,500 per season, earned as veteran value and leadership in the Lynx rotation, according to Spotrac and Her Hoop Stats.

For the 2025 campaign her base salary sits at $180,000, a modest leap that positions her as the third-highest-paid player on the roster behind Collier and McBride, underlining her veteran status.
Though not multi-millionaire territory, this pay reflects ten years of WNBA service—a level few younger players reach by mid-career—compensating her consistency, clutch scoring and strategic role.
Courtney Williams’ contract: How long does the deal last?
Courtney Williams officially signed her two-year guaranteed deal on February 1, 2024, accompanying Minnesota Lynx’s push to consolidate guard leadership amid a championship chase.
The contract covers the 2024 and 2025 WNBA seasons, with no team or player options, ensuring her place in the franchise backbone through 2025 — unrestricted free agency follows in 2026.
With her contract expiring alongside other core veterans after 2025, her performance next season could shape future roster decisions and headline free agency strategy for Minnesota.
