"The current players are getting big raises in salary, a real stake in revenue share and an improved workplace experience. For future players, their compensation will be based on the framework of gains made now."
"Throughout the negotiations, revenue sharing was the biggest sticking point in getting a deal done. It's a measurable metric that allows players to feel fully vested in and rewarded by not just their own individual success but what the league as a whole accomplishes."
"The players can build on this in future CBA negotiations, ensuring that their compensation continues to grow alongside the league's success."
The WNBA and the players association finalized a transformative collective bargaining agreement that enhances player salaries, revenue sharing, and workplace conditions. Current players will receive significant salary increases and a share of league revenue, while future players will benefit from the established compensation framework. Retired players with five years of service will receive recognition payments. The agreement ensures labor peace for at least six years, with a focus on meaningful revenue sharing that ties player compensation to league growth, fostering a vested interest in the league's success.
