Any player with an equity interest in Unrivaled (or any other league) should be prohibited from being involved in the negotiations of the new CBA. This is clearly a conflict of interest, as Unrivaled’s value increases if there is a work stoppage in the WNBA. I fully support the players getting paid what they are owed, but they need to realize everyone loses if there is a work stoppage and a delay to the start of the season. The momentum gained over the past few years will erode quickly if there is a work stoppage.
