Sky Players See First Unrivaled Minutes in Lunar Owls Opening Loss

The first batch of 2026 Unrivaled bouts ended with wins for returning teams and newbies alike. The young and talented Breeze BC, who defeated the Phantom behind big-time outings from their youthful starters, capped off the night with a 7-point win over the veteran roster. Rookie sensation Paige Bueckers, a star in the making who earned an All-WNBA Second Team and a Rookie of the Year selection with the Dallas Wings, notched 24 points in her first game with the newly-formed Unrivaled squad. The Mist earned their first win of the year over the Breeze’s new counterparts, the Hive, behind 21 points from Allisha Gray. The same can’t be said for a Chicago Sky-repped squad in the Lunar Owls. A Monday-night matchup was anything but a strong start for the once-mighty squad, who fell in an 80-60 loss to the 2025 Unrivaled champion in Rose BC. Chelsea Gray led the Rose with 35 points and eight assists as she continued to excel in the 3-on-3 format that netted her an All-Unrivaled First-Team selection just last year. AaRead More
