NBA/WNBA teams travel for half of their games. This includes anywhere from 40 to 70 pre-season, regular-season, and post-season games. Teams travel together and stay at the same hotels. Teams hold practices and meetings before games, but players have several hours to themselves during road-trip. Teams pay each player $100 per day for spending money on travel days. Players use this money for meals and for transportation to the sports arenas where they play.
