Overview

Unrivaled is a professional women's basketball league co-founded by Breanna Stewart and Napheesa Collier and launched in January 2025. The league features top women's basketball stars competing in a compressed full-court 3-on-3 format across six clubs. Its business model emphasizes a player-first compensation structure that includes equity stakes for participating athletes and claims the highest average salary in professional women's sports league history. Unrivaled reported rapid growth and strong unit economics in its inaugural season, which investors highlighted when leading the recent Series B. The company secured an oversubscribed Series B that values the league at $340 million and drew participation from strategic media and athlete investors. The league's second season is scheduled to tip off in January 2026 as it continues to expand its operations and fan engagement.
