The Women’s National Basketball Players Association on Friday night obtained the WNBA’s counterproposal, which featured some marginal changes from the league’s previous offer, sources confirmed to The Post Saturday. The WNBA’s response, which came six weeks after the WNBPA submitted its most recent proposal around Christmas, did not feature a significant update on the revenue-share front, according to multiple sources. While players are bargaining for 30 percent of gross revenue, the league is still offering around 70 percent of the net revenue share, which equates to roughly 15 percent of the gross league and team revenue share.
