Breanna Stewart and Napheesa Collier's Unrivaled League is off to a fast start in its inaugural season, drawing fans to the next evolution of professional basketball. Collier and Stewart are already making their respective impacts as two of the league's top ten leading scorers through four games.
The league's unique format and fast-paced rhythm bring an exciting atmosphere to Unrivaled. On Monday afternoon, Stewart looked to add to the excitement with an announcement regarding a potential collaboration with another event located in Miami.
"Cooking up something exciting," Stewart posted to her Instagram story, tagging AllyRacing, the sponsor of Nascar driver Alex Bowman.
Stewart was standing on the track of the Homestead-Miami Speedway. Unrivaled's inaugural season is taking place in Miami, Florida, making it likely the collaboration will pertain to the new women's basketball league.
Unrivaled is currently two weeks into its two-month season from January to February, with each team having played four games to this point.
