The WNBA and its players' association (WNBPA) are negotiating a new collective bargaining agreement (CBA) after the current agreement was terminated prematurely. This new CBA is expected to address significant factors such as salary cap, roster sizes, and season length amidst the league's notable expansion and revenue growth. The previous CBA, effective January 2020, contributed to the league's successful increase in viewership and merchandise sales. With more teams joining the league, players are pushing for an agreement that reflects their evolving needs and the league's growth.
"This league is transforming. As a players association, we want to evolve with it and have that be reflected in how players are taken care of."
"After the 2024 season, the league reached new broadcast deals that will bring in substantially more revenue, positively affecting the financial landscape for players."
