On the verge of the expiration date of the WNBA’s current collective bargaining agreement (CBA), the players association has agreed to an extension with the league amid stalled talks on a new deal.
According to a new report from The Athletic’s Ben Pickman, the WNBA and WNBPA have reached a resolution Thursday for a 30-day extension on their CBA deal. The league offered players the extension earlier this week, which ESPN’s Alexa Philippou mentioned the players might be willing to consider “under the right circumstances” but they feel “those circumstances do not yet exist.” Ahead of the current deal’s expiration Friday, the two parties have reportedly agreed to the extended time.
