Starting this thread because I've spoken with several players who feel like they aren't being heard. Let me start by saying, I'm the first one who's super ready for the WNBA to come back, but after discussions with players, I'm conflicted.

Before I detail their conditions that I've been given, there has been talk about the executive committee "not representing us the way they should. We’re voicing our opinions and they not hearing us!" Players also feel they're being kept in the dark as time goes by.

IF IMG Academy gets voted into action, players will either have hotel rooms or villas that most likely won't allow their own space, and definitely don't include a +1. This just simply isn't the case for their NBA counterparts in Disney.

Also, 60% salary. I understand it's a shortened season, but 60% might not even be enough incentive for players to play...ESPECIALLY those who 1. didn't sign new contracts this season & are going off of old ones & 2. for the bigger names who would rather opt out of isolation.

Apparently, there's a major discrepancy in food options too. They'll be subjected to boxed-lunches, as opposed to the NBA's personal chef options. I just feel like, for three months of entrapment, in this bubble, without anyone, at least the food could be a saving grace. Nope.

Training camp is expected to last 13 days, after 3 months of no playing. There's no set schedule for the game play (because the vote isn't even finalized), but a mix of no basketball activity for months with such a quick turnover time into game play...Shook.

I ultimately feel guilty for the W's return when more than a few players feel like their hands are being forced into something. From what I gather, they want an opt-out option to be considered. There will be more meetings regarding this but I wonder what the future will hold.
