The NBA and NBPA are in agreement on spreading the escrow over three seasons.

The league is proposing a 25 percent escrow over three years while the NBPA is offering 15 percent. Eighteen percent over three years is viewed as a potential escrow number the two sides could compromise on, sources tell Shams Charania of The Athletic.

The union has been making the argument that owners have longevity in owning an NBA team with franchise valuations continuing to rise, while a smaller pool of players will take a greater financial hit if it is applied to just one season.

The league had been pushing 40 percent in escrow, then 35 percent and so on during their negotiations with the union.
