The WNBA and WNBPA now have limited time in hand to come up with a solution to the stalled CBA discussions. While many WNBPA position holders have already criticized the league for its approach, Natasha Cloud has also been vocal about her views. She even issued a blunt warning to the WNBA ahead of the make-or-break CBA resume talks.
According to the reports, the players’ association reduced the value of their demands, allowing the league to work its way out. Even before the league responds to the offer, the Liberty star accidentally spoke about the details in her live stream.

Natasha Cloud Spills Details About CBA Deal
The veteran guard was on TikTok live, where she expressed her frustration with the CBA progress and criticized Commissioner Cathy Engelbert, again.
“Every time that we keep coming back to the league, there’s a new estimate of the overall value of the league that keeps increasing,” Cloud said. “So you keep increasing, and then keep trying to literally depreciate our value, our equity, our finances within the business. It don’t make no sense.”

“I don’t want hear sh*t else about our league loses money, every professional league, every organization loses money somewhere. … So we’ll give you updates on the CBA when we get updates on the CBA, but for eight months, we have got no update,” the guard added.

She added that if she hadn’t had an NDA (non-disclosure agreement), she would have put everything up front for the fans. Per the contract, she can’t discuss the terms or details until they are official.
While the player is already pumped up about the ‘disparity’ in the league, she has mentioned that players have backup plans to put pressure on the league.
Natasha Cloud Loving Unrivaled More
The player is now playing in her second season with the Unrivaled and has already made history by being part of only two trades that have ever happened in the league so far. Yet the former WNBA champion is happy with the league, its working and playing conditions.
Lauding the league’s expansion plans, she spoke highly about the league’s move to Philadelphia. In a recent interview, she said, “I’m really excited. I don’t know if I’ve played in front of my entire family since 2015, when I graduated from St. Joseph’s in West Philly. It’s exciting for my inner child that wanted nothing more than a women’s basketball team to be present in our city. It makes me so happy for the city that helped raise me, helped mold me.”
While the Unrivalled made a huge profit at Philadelphia, it is now moving to Brooklyn for the semifinals in order to slowly expand into the bigger markets, too. Cloud wouldn’t mind that.
