WNBA players seek more post-Olympic time off in next collective bargaining agreement.

WNBA players are requesting more time off after the Olympics in the next collective bargaining agreement, following the quick turnaround after the Paris Games.

The current league and players can opt out of the Collective Bargaining Agreement at the end of this season, which may provide an opportunity to include this requested change.
