NBPA executive director Michele Roberts talks to The Athletic about negotiations with the NBA to plan next season.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe union and the players are analyzing all of the information and will not be rushed,\u201d Roberts told\u00a0The Athletic<\/em>.<\/a> \u201cWe have requested and are receiving data from the parties involved and will work on a counterproposal as expeditiously as possible. I have absolutely no reason to believe that we will have a decision by Friday. I cannot and will not view Friday as a drop dead date.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

On the latest proposal from the NBA, which plans the start of the regular season on December 22nd.<\/p>\n

“Given all that has to be resolved between now and a Dec. 22 date, factoring that there will be financial risks by a later start date, it defies common sense that it can all be done in time,\u201d Roberts told The Athletic<\/em><\/a>. \u201cOur players deserve the right to have some runway so that they can plan for a start that soon. The overwhelming response from the players that I have received to this proposal has been negative”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Shams Charania, citing multiple league sources, said that the salary cap and Luxury tax for the next season are expected to be around $109 million and $132 million, respectively.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
