flag WNBA players and league negotiate new CBA with reduced revenue and cap demands amid looming 2026 season start.

flag The WNBA Players' Association has submitted a revised CBA proposal, reducing its requested revenue share to an average of 27.5% of gross revenue—starting at 25% in year one—down from over 30% in earlier offers, and lowering its salary cap demand to under $9.5 million. flag The league countered with a $5.65 million cap and a 70% share of net revenue, which would amount to less than 15% of gross revenue. flag The union also proposed retaining team-paid housing for early-career players, phasing it out for higher earners near max salary. flag With the 2026 season set to begin May 8 and two expansion teams awaiting a draft, both sides face urgent pressure to agree before key dates, as delays risk disrupting free agency, sponsorships, and the season’s start.
