Caitlin Clark Declines $1M Offer to Join New 3-on-3 Basketball League

Unrivaled, co-founded by WNBA stars Breanna Stewart and Napheesa Collier, will debut in January with notable players but without the Rookie of the Year.

Unrivaled, a 3-on-3 women's basketball league, aims to provide WNBA players with lucrative offseason opportunities and the highest average salaries in women's sports history.
Caitlin Clark, the reigning WNBA Rookie of the Year, has opted out of the league's inaugural season, citing a need for rest after a demanding year.
The league offered Clark over $1 million and equity stakes, but she remains uncommitted, though the invitation reportedly remains open for future participation.
Unrivaled will feature 34 confirmed players, including stars like Angel Reese, Breanna Stewart, and Brittney Griner, with two wildcard roster spots yet to be filled.
The league, starting January 17 in Miami, will air on TNT and truTV, showcasing a unique 3-on-3 format with seven-minute quarters and a one-on-one tournament with a $250,000 prize.
