What a week it is to launch a women’s basketball podcast. There’s been a flury of WNBA collective bargaining agreement (CBA) news that is the focus of our first ever The IX Sports Podcast Baskteball Edition. Join our hosts Howard Medgal and Jackie Powell where they break down some of the big picture storylines about the CBA including player housing, the WNBA’s calendar and footprint and salary and revenue sharing. Toward the end of our show, Jackie asks Howard about why watching Seton Hall play Princeton earlier this week mattered so much.Thumbnail Photo Credit: Vincent Carchietta-Imagn ImagesLinks to click that are referenced throughout the show: - Jacob Mox explains the latest CBA salary related developments: https://www.thenexthoops.com/wnba/wnba-cba-negotiations-hit-milestone-with-a-catch-salary-cap-revenue-share/- Mox and Lucas Seehafer explain the WNBA’s schedule and injuries: https://www.thenexthoops.com/wnba/what-does-the-data-say-about-wnba-injuries-and-scheduling/- Ben Pickman and Sabreena Merchant on where revenue sharing is right now: https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/6857443/2025/12/03/wnba-cba-proposal-draft-combine-salary/-Annie Costabile had reporting on: Player housing and scheduling:https://frontofficesports.com/wnba-cba-update-housing-start-date-salary/Revenue sharing: https://frontofficesports.com/wnba-cba-salary-revenue-sharing/- Jenn Hatfield on why more Ivy League players are going pro: https://www.thenexthoops.com/ncaaw/mid-majors/ivy-league-graduates-playing-professional-basketball-wnba-overseas-wbb/
