Caitlin Clark has revealed where her head is at on the possibility of joining rival Angel Reese in new women’s basketball league, Unrivaled.
The 3-on-3 association, launched by Breanna Stewart of the New York Liberty and Napheesa Collier of the Minnesota Lynx, will host games during the WNBA’s offseason and has snagged some very notable names, including Reese.
Clark, however, has insisted that she’s focused on her WNBA career and her goals with the Indiana Fever for now.
“Honestly, I’m just focused on this right now,” she told reporters on Tuesday. “One thing at a time. Can’t always just be moving on to the next. My focus is right here.”
Unrivaled Will Have To Wait On Caitlin Clark
Collier disclosed that at least four WNBA rookies will play in her new league.
Given the popularity boost experienced by the WNBA, it would be great to have both Clark and Reese there, but the former Iowa star might take some time with her decision.
In the meantime, they have signed UConn’s Paige Bueckers, projected to be the No. 1 overall pick in 2025, securing her involvement through an NIL deal.
Unrivaled was launched as an avenue for WNBA players to earn money during the offseason without going overseas.
While it has not announced a salary structure, it is expected to pay the most money in women’s sports.
Also, the first 30 players to join will get an equity stake.
The plan is for ‘Unrivaled’ to have six teams playing an eight-week season, including a playoffs and a final. Each of the teams will have a head coach and an assistant coach.
There are also plans to host a one-on-one single-elimination tournament next February.
