WNBAs March 10 Deadline Looms: Players and League Push for Agreement The WNBAs regular season is fast approaching, but a new collective bargaining agreement remains elusive. Today marks the deadline set by league leaders to finalize terms and avoid schedule adjustments. Both sides are meeting to expedite talks after recent progress. The deadline is more of a pressure tactic than a hard cutoff, with key steps like the expansion draft, free agency, and the draft at risk of tight timelines. Players express frustration but remain committed to avoiding a lockout and starting the season on time. Revenue sharing is the main sticking point, with players seeking a larger cut and the league pushing back on the numbers. If an agreement is reached soon, the expansion draft could occur in early April, free agency shortly after, and training camps by mid-April, setting up the May 8 tip-off as planned.
