Rewriting the standard! ✍️
The 2026 WNBA CBA is doing more than raising salaries, it is changing how the league takes care of every generation of players. 👏
For the first time, retired players with at least five years of service will receive back pay, with payments ranging from $30K to $100K depending on years in the league. A long-overdue recognition for the players who helped build the W. 🏀
And the future? It is getting a major upgrade too. The league minimum salary is jumping from ~$66K to over $300K, with current players on rookie contracts also receiving immediate raises. 📈
One deal, and the past, present, and future all move forward together. 🤝
The past, present, and future all win, what are your thoughts? 🤩
