Unrivaled Basketball League Launches January 17
The Unrivaled Basketball League, co-founded by Breanna Stewart and Napheesa Collier, is set to launch on January 17 in Miami, featuring 36 top WNBA players despite the absence of Caitlin Clark, the league's most notable omission. The league aims to provide an alternative to overseas play, offering players competitive opportunities and higher salaries, with an average of $222,222, surpassing the WNBA's maximum contract. Six teams will compete in hour-long games on a compressed court, with plans for future expansion and significant sponsorship from brands like Samsung and State Farm. The league has garnered attention with its funding and a partnership with TNT for extensive game coverage. Players like Sabrina Ionescu, Brittney Griner, and Angel Reese are among the stars participating, while the league also plans a one-on-one tournament with a $250,000 prize. The initiative is seen as a pivotal moment in women's basketball, potentially reshaping the landscape for player compensation and competitive opportunities.
