They already have it. Last year's revenue was projected at $6.2 billion and this year is expected to come in around $6.6 billion. With the players' share being 50% of revenue, that's over $100 million per team on average.

This is why the players are no longer paying escrow and will likely get bonuses at the end of the season.
Hard to trust them yet, outside of Covid they have always had a lockout even when things seemed to be running smooth.

Also with Freidmen saying teams are not comfortable with a 100M cap.
