  1. As a long-time women’s basketball fan (going back to high school 40+ year ago), I hope both sides are able to reach a mutually beneficial agreement to take advantage of the momentum which has been building the last few years. Ideally, I would love to see a time when the WNBA season runs from April through November, and leagues like Unrivaled, Athletes Unlimited, and Project B serve as development leagues for the WNBA and not supplemental income sources for WNBA players.
