The WNBA and WNBPA are still sparring, trading CBA proposals back and forth as both parties approach the final hours of the league's March 10th deadline.
The WNBA reportedly submitted its most recent offer on Saturday, one day after receiving the union's Friday counterproposal, though the details on any changes on the table remain unclear.
According to the WNBA, if the two parties fail to reach a deal by Tuesday — a verbal agreement on the terms at a minimum, if not a signed CBA — the 2026 season could face delays.
Union leadership expressed a willingness to meet with the league in-person, with WNBPA VP Breanna Stewart recently stating she'd make herself available for talks.
"I think that would be great for us all to sit in a room until we really get it done," the New York Liberty forward said from USA Basketball camp over the weekend. "If that means sitting in there for hours and hours at a time, let's do it."
"I don't understand why we don't just get in a room and iron it out and shake hands," echoed Indiana Fever star Caitlin Clark. "That's how business is. You look each other in the eye, you shake hands. You respect both sides."
