Unrivaled, the new 3-on-3 women's basketball league co-founded by WNBA stars Napheesa Collier and Breanna Stewart, has secured a multi-year media rights deal with TNT Sports. The agreement will see TNT Sports exclusively present live game coverage of Unrivaled's inaugural season, which tips off on January 17, 2025. The network plans to broadcast 45 matchups across its platforms, including TNT, truTV, and streaming service Max, with games airing three nights a week on Mondays and Fridays (doubleheaders on TNT) and Saturdays (doubleheaders on truTV). Confirmed players include Chelsea Gray, Kelsey Plum, Jackie Young, and Tiffany Hayes among the league's roster of 26 top WNBA players. As part of the partnership, TNT Sports will also invest an undisclosed amount in the league, becoming an equity partner. Former Turner president David Levy and former ESPN president John Skipper led the media rights negotiations. The deal marks a significant step for Unrivaled as it aims to elevate women's basketball during the WNBA's offseason.
