On November 1, 2018, the Women's National Basketball Players Association (WNBPA) informed the league that it had decided to opt out of the Collective Bargaining Agreement (CBA) that had been signed in 2014 and was scheduled to run through 2021.

This case takes students inside this complicated negotiation process and reveals the dynamics of its successful outcome.
