The WNBA Collective Bargaining Agreement is set to expire in a matter of days … and Las Vegas Aces guard Jackie Young tells TMZ Sports that while there are plenty of issues still left to hammer out — the biggest comes down to the almighty dollar.
We spoke with Young this week just after the Aces won their third championship in the last four seasons … and we asked what the mindset is as the players and the league work toward a new CBA.
Young said the “biggest thing” for her and other players is simple — “we get what we deserve.”
“We’re the best in the world,” she told us while working a ceremonial shift at a Las Vegas Raising Cane’s, “and so just giving us what we deserve.”
Naturally, we asked what she thinks that is. While she said there were a few ways to go with that … one of the major issues at play is $$$.
“Obviously, pay is a big one,” she said. “But I think the biggest thing, like, is the revenue share.”
“So once we get that to a certain point, I think they’ll be in a better spot.”
Only time will tell if the two sides can avoid a lockout. As you know … the players and the current commissioner, Cathy Engelbert, aren’t on the best of terms these days. Minnesota Lynx star Napheesa Collier even recently said the W has “the worst leadership in the world.”
New CBA or not, Young and the Aces are still celebrating the heck out of their latest WNBA title … and are slated to have their parade through Sin City later Friday evening.
