Report: NBA Players Vote To Approve New Collective Bargaining Agreement

The NBA players have approved a new collective bargaining agreement, sources have told CBS Sports.

The players had a window from 6 p.m. Wednesday until 4 p.m. Thursday to vote on the new agreement via email, CBS reports.  The player’s approval of the deal now paves the way for the owners to “formally ratify the deal.”

With the approval by both sides on a new collective bargaining agreement, training camp and free-agency will begin as scheduled on Friday.
