    Does the WNBA have restricted free agency?

    Apparently the WNBA has some weird franchise tag shit. Like the NFL. They also have restricted free agency. We ain’t getting Sabrina.

    That's some next level confidence. You already know you'll get the contracts. What if they want to hire someone cheaper than you?

    I might actually have a WNBA team to root for if this pans out! Great news! Maybe this will provide the window I need to enjoy the WNBA a bit.
