WNBA players and the league are far apart on new CBA talks ahead of in-person discussions
The WNBA players union and league officials have much to discuss when they sit down this week for their first in-person talks as a group since December about the new collective bargaining agreement. The two sides are hoping for a transformational new collective bargaining agreement. After sharing initial proposals, Phoenix Mercury forward and union rep Satou Sabally said the league’s offer was “a slap in the face.” The two sides are scheduled to have their first face-to-face meeting in Indianapolis on Thursday. Increased salaries, revenue sharing and roster size are three areas where the union hopes to see major changes from the current CBA.
