The league has financial opt out clauses, they do not have any say on players participation. The league cannot overrule anything, that would be a violation of the CBA. Bettman and Daly like to say things like "we want to honour our agreement with the players" but they really don't have a choice here. If players want to go, the league can't stop them.
