Mandatory Credit: Darren Yamashita-Imagn Images The WNBA proposed a maximum player salary of more than $1.1 million in the latest round of collective bargaining negotiations this week, multiple reports said Tuesday.
The league's CBA proposal, which would include revenue sharing, would set the league minimum at more than $220,000 and allow more than one player per team to make the maximum salary, per the reports. The figures would grow each year.
The league and players' union extended the negotiations to Nov. 30 after the previous CBA was set to expire on Oct. 31. The players exercised their opt-out of that agreement last year, with player salaries and the revenue-sharing model among their key issues.
A failure to reach an agreement by the new deadline could result in a work stoppage.
