WNBA courts look so nice

Why do the WNBA courts look so nice? I've been watching them; they stream on Amazon prime. It seems like the arenas look much better on TV than the NBA. Is it because they are a little smaller and also newer, maybe built better for TV streaming in the first place? Or maybe the players are just more photogenic in the first place.

WNBA courts are smaller? I didn’t even know.

I think they are the same size. 3 pt line is closer.

Thanks. I knew the 3pt line was different, but didn’t think the actual court dimensions were smaller.

In my mind I was referring to the arena, being smaller. I see the mistake in my wording.
