As CBA negotiations continue, WNBA players made a unified statement at the All-Star Game. Here's how they landed on "Pay Us What You Owe Us" shirts.

WNBA players are pushing for higher salaries and a larger share of league revenue in the next collective bargaining agreement.

The WNBA, much like the NBA, is quickly being built on the backs of superstars. Angel Reese, A'ja Wilson, Caitlin Clark, and Paige Bueckers are ushering the WNBA into its most successful era, and the players are looking to capitalize on it.

All eyes are on the WNBA as the best players gather in Indiana for the 2025 WNBA All-Star Game. One of the main items on the agenda: CBA negotiations.

Over the past three days, Indianapolis was taken over by the league and its legions of new fans. The players, now global superstars, were mobbed everywhere they went. Downtown, the JW Marriott was covered in a giant Caitlin Clark banner that covered 30 of the hotel's 34 stories and took nine days to install, per Scott Agness .

While the current CBA expires on October 31 of this year, that doesn't mean that all is lost if no deal for the next CBA is made by that point. And given how far both sides seem at this point, there certainly seems to be a chance that negotiations continue deep into the league's offseason.

Following a WNBA CBA meeting during the All-Star break that saw over 40 players in attendance, negotiations remain at a "standstill," according to ESPN’s Kendra Andrews.

Natalie Esquire and Callie Fin discuss the ongoing collective bargaining agreement conversations between the WNBA and its players, including some players' thoughts on the updates throughout All-Star weekend.

If a new contract deal isn't reached by October, some players, including all-star Angel Reese, have mentioned the potential for a walkout.

The NHL and NHL Players’ Association ratified a new collective bargaining agreement (CBA) earlier this month, which will run from Sept. 16, 2026 through Sept. 15, 2030. The current CBA, still in place through the upcoming 2025-26 season, was first ratified in 2013 and extended in 2020.

As commisioner Cathy Engelbert spoke, players took the floor wearing shirts that read “Pay Us What You Owe Us.”
