Unrivaled’s second championship pairing will be determined with a couple of three-on-three thrillers in Brooklyn.
They may be “Unrivaled,” but only two will survive the cold on the trek back to South Beach.

The domestic three-on-three league co-founded by Breanna Stewart brought its work home with its originator, as the league’s second annual semifinals are underway at Barclays Center. Best-known for hosting Stewart’s most recent title with the New York Liberty—who downed a Minnesota Lynx group headlined by Unrivaled co-founder Napheesa Collier—the arena on Atlantic Avenue is hosting an elite pair in the name of determining the most glorious trios.
In the opening matchup, top-ranked Phantom will look to stave off yet another upset bid penned by the artists of Vinyl. Though carrying the talents of Kelsey Plum, the Ghost Gang will be without newly-crowned Defensive Player of the Year Aliyah Boston after she left the regular season finale with an injury. Stewart will play to her metropolitan crowd in the late-nightcap, as she and the Mist will look to unleash a championship deluge against Paige Bueckers and her fellow young guns on Breeze.
Keep track of the action below …
