Lynx forward Napheesa Collier and Liberty forward Breanna Stewart are launching a new women’s basketball league called “Unrivaled” in January. The aim is that players will earn competitive salaries similar to that of their WNBA contracts.
The AthleticIn addition to being able to supplement one’s income, one of the main reasons so many WNBA players go overseas in the winter is that it provides them with an opportunity to take part in high-level competition year-round. As it currently stands, the WNBA season, lasts, at most, half the year, leaving players to find other places to improve while not in the W.In recent years, Athletes Unlimited has provided some players a short-term U.S.
It’s hard to imagine that the creation of this alternative will cause WNBA players to entirely stop going abroad . But it also would not be surprising to see more players elect not to play overseas going forward, deciding to play three-on-three instead of for some of the top teams around the world. With another U.S.-based offseason alternative, WNBA teams could also keep an eye on emerging talent that they might be interested in. —Overseas pay for WNBA players may not be as much as you've heard. Can the W use this to its advantage?A number of active WNBA players have taken part in three-on-three competitions with Team USA in recent years.
