Unrivaled, a 3×3 league founded by WNBA stars Napheesa Collier and Breanna Stewart, played its inaugural season last winter. The league gives WNBA players another opportunity to stay in shape and work on their game while staying in the United States during the offseason. Now, the league is continuing to invest in women’s basketball by signing 14 college players to NIL deals.

“Investing in elite women’s basketball talent is central to Unrivaled’s mission,” Luke Cooper, Unrivaled’s president of basketball operations, said in a press release. “This transformational, first-of-its-kind initiative brings together the best of the best and reflects our deep commitment to elevating the women’s game and holistically supporting athletes.”
