Despite an all-night negotiating session, Tuesday’s self-imposed deadline for starting the WNBA season on time came and went without a deal on a new collective bargaining agreement. The marathon 12-hour confab at the Langham Hotel in Midtown included Breanna Stewart, Nneka Ogwumike, Bri Turner, and Alysha Clark from the union as well as WNBA commissioner Cathy Engelbert, head of league operations Bethany Donaphin and Liberty owner Clara Wu Tsai on the league side, according to reporters on the sidewalk scene. Given the wiggle room in the countdown to the scheduled May 8 season opener — allowing time for legal vetting of the CBA, a two-team expansion draft, a college draft, a super-sized free agency and training camps — there remains hope of pulling off an on-time start.
