Caitlin Clark will not play in Unrivaled — but here’s which WNBA stars will

After weeks of anticipation, social media buzz, and anticipation, Unrivaled has released its six club rosters and accompanying head coaches. And, on November 20th, perhaps the biggest participation question was answered, with ESPN’s Michael Voepel reporting that Clark will not participate in the new 3-on-3 professional basketball league co-founded by Napheesa Collier and Breanna Stewart. Clark has previously insinuated that she wasn’t planning on participating on a number of occasions.

Now, it’s officially confirmed that the rookie phenom will sit out, at least this time around. Still, although no WNBA player impacts viewership like Clark, there are a ton of All-Stars and MVP-caliber players who have opted to participate. 14 players from the 2024 All-Star class alone will be headed to Miami for the January 17th tip-off, headlined by league rebounding leader Angel Reese, All-Star Game MVP Arike Ogunbowale, and Olympic guards Kelsey Plum, Chelsea Gray, and Jackie Young, among others.
