"Bring your game, not your name" - Fans buzz as $74,909 rising star hands Breanna Stewart a humiliating 12-0 loss

Unrivaled held the first round of its 1-on-1 tournament on Monday night, with co-founder Breanna Stewart taking on Aaliyah Edwards. Many thought that Stewart would have an easy win over, but her Mist BC teammate put on a show, winning 12-0.

As part of Unrivaled's inaugural season, they held the first round of the 1-on-1 tournament that had a lot of hurdles. Due to injuries, some players on the bracket received a bye matchup and advanced.

In the case of Stewart vs. Edwards, the winner skipped the second round and advanced to the quarterfinals. Edwards would have faced the winner between Alyssa Thomas and Kate Martin, but both players were ruled out with injuries.

Edwards shut out her teammate by scoring at will whether inside or outside, leaving the WNBA champion struggling.

Fans were shocked to see Aaliyah Edwards, who is set to earn $74,909 next season in the WNBA, beat Breanna Stewart with ease. Edwards averaged 7.6 points, 5.6 rebounds and 1.4 assists in her first season with the Washington Mystics.

"Bring your game, not your name!" a fan wrote.

"She needs to relinquish any GOAT claim....," one fan claimed.

"Ngl, not actually surprised Breanna isn’t that good on a 1v1.. Going scoreless is definitely embarrassing and shocking," another fan commented.

Unrivaled's 1-on-1 tournament is kind of like the In-Season Tournament in the NBA and WNBA. The winner will be rewarded handsomely with $350,000. There were initially 30 participants, but injuries trimmed it down. The remaining players will play in a one-game knockout round, first to 12 with a "you make it, you take it" rule.

"Not gonna lie. I doubted her. I caught myself saying “just give Stewart the win atp.” She proved me wrong!" a fan tweeted.

"Breanna Washed," one fan quipped.

"Unrivaled has really exposed Breanna Stewart. She’s looks terrible out on the court and off of the court," another fan remarked.

Breanna Stewart and Napheesa Collier co-founded Unrivaled, with Collier's husband Alex Bazzell serving as president. The league plays full-court 3-on-3 basketball and is televised on TNT and TruTV. It's also streamed on MAx.
