The NBA is seeking to adopt a firm salary cap as it continues talks on a new collective bargaining agreement with the players union.

The rule would tighten how much teams across the league are permitted to spend on their respective rosters.

Currently, teams are allowed to spend above the NBA salary cap, but they are penalized with a luxury tax. The newly-proposed "upper spending limit" would create an absolute spending ceiling that effectively eliminates the luxury tax option.

Details of the upper spending limit proposal were first reported by ESPN and NBA reporter Marc Stein.

According to The Associated Press, a source who spoke on the condition of anonymity said the players union has no intention of agreeing to the plan.

The reigning NBA champion Golden State Warriors are one of the franchises spending more than many other teams.

The Warriors spent nearly $350 million for the 2021-2002 season on salaries and tax. This season, the team is projected to spend around $360 million.

The NBA is coming off a record year that saw revenue surpass the $10 billion mark.

"The numbers did surprise me to a certain degree because it exceeded projections, and the projections represent where we think our business is going," NBA Commissioner Adam Silver said in July. "I think it’s quite remarkable from where we came 2½ years ago."
