Sources: WNBA's new CBA proposal includes housing provisions - ESPN

The WNBA's latest collective bargaining agreement proposal from Friday included some concessions on housing and facility standards, but it did not include a significant update on the league's proposed revenue sharing system, sources told ESPN on Saturday.

As part of the housing concessions, players on their applicable minimum salary and those with zero years of service would be provided a one-bedroom apartment for the first three years of the new deal, sources said. Developmental players would be provided studio apartments, according to sources.

It is unclear how the players have received the new CBA proposal, which came Friday, more than six weeks after the players' association made its last offer around Christmas time.

The league previously did not include any housing provisions in its proposals. WNBA teams have been required to provide housing for players since the first CBA was ratified in 1999. In the previous agreement, teams could provide housing in the form of a one-bedroom apartment or a stipend.

By far the biggest area of disagreement between the parties has been how revenue sharing should work in a new deal.

The league has proposed that players receive on average over 70% of net revenue, defined as revenue after deducting expenses. Its latest proposal included a $5.65 million salary cap in 2026 (up from roughly $1.5 million in 2025) and it would grow in subsequent years in line with revenue growth.

In its previous proposal, maximum salaries, including revenue share payouts, would amount to $1.3 million in 2026 and were projected to approach $2 million in 2031. The supermax in 2025 came in at $249,000. The average player salary, including revenue sharing, was projected to reach $540,000 in 2026 and $780,000 by
