The new collective bargaining agreement for the WNBA allows the season to end on November 21, a month later than before, with the potential to extend to November 30 in 2028 due to the Olympics. Teams may play up to 50 games in 2027, increasing to 52 games in 2029, as the league anticipates growing to 18 teams by 2030. Players are now required to report earlier, on April 15 or at the start of training camp, impacting those who play overseas. The agreement has been ratified by both the WNBPA and the league, with final documentation pending.
