If you can't trust the leaders of your union then the union doesn't exist.

Something feels gross about where the CBA negotiations stand.

Unrivaled fans just saw why Dallas Wings fans have loved watching Arike Ogunbowale over the course of her career.

ARIKE OGUNBOWALE SENDS MIST TO THE CHAMPIONSHIP

Arike has played amazing tonight. Getting good looks. Passing the ball extremely well to set up her teammates. Her defensive pressure on Paige has really slowed her down.

Paige vs. Arike/Li to head to the Unrivaled championship.

Remaining Cap: $2,826,000

The Wings would have 2.8 million for the final 5 roster spots.

This remaining cap averages out to $565,200 per remaining player which is well above the league average giving Dallas plenty of room to outbid teams on free agents.

Curt Miller has the Wings in a good spot.

I know this is all confusing but if the current deal is accepted or close to it here is what the Wings roster would look like!

Paige Bueckers - $541,000
2026 1st Pick - $541,000
Maddy Siegriest - $541,000
Aziaha James - $300,000
Awak Kuier - $230,000
Diamond Miller - $541,000
JJ Quinerly - $230,000

After running the math the Wings would have $3,717,000 after adjusting current contracts to scale.

That would leave an average salary of 531,000 per player to fill out the rest of the roster which would be the most in the league.

02.03.2026 22:50 — 👍 2    🔁 0    💬 0    📌 0

1.3 million dollar Super Max.

You can sign two of those contracts max to be able to fill out a championship roster.

If you risk paying three that remaining salary cap is 200k per player to fill out the rest of our roster....the new league minimum.

Not gonna work.

If I was a fan of teams full of players that demand a Super Max contract in the free agency I would be very nervous.

The latest WNBA proposal is the end of super teams in the WNBA.

Kelsey Plum and Breanna Stewart have both acknowledged that the addition of revenue sharing in the latest proposal is a win regardless of percentage.

This is a stark change in tone from even just a few days ago.

🗣️: I really fear the effects and outcome of the WNBA not meeting their media contract for the new 2.2 billion dollar media rights deal.

It could be CATASTROPHIC.
