They're using one a little bit bigger than the WNBA ball. The Unrivaled ball is 29.5 inches compared to the WNBA's 28.5...the blue and purple colorway on their ball is 🔥
An untested 3 on 3 league going against NFL, NHL, and NBA teams. There is a reason the regular WNBA season starts later in the year. Playing in an arena that only holds 850 fans, not much of a rowdy atmosphere. Lexie Hull was just averaging over 5 points a game. Rae Burrell from the sparks was just averaging under 6 points a game. Angel was shooting 11% from 5 feet out to 9 feet out under the basket. Over 65% of Unrivaled players are mediocre at best. I hope I am wrong, because all these women are drastically underpaid, but I am not very optimistic of their chances of success.
I think quality of play won't be a problem as this is a different game. I think everyone will do all right. That includes Angel with her improvements to her jumpshot. I do think timing sucks, but you can't tweak everything as baseball has to gone up with early season NFL football and people feel that is a bad idea but baseball is still doing all right. I also think the 850 arena was a choice. I actually wanted it to be bigger but I can see why they are only doing 850.
@@KazeShikamaru I agree, I know they tweaked the "4th quarter" but fouls will be interesting too. With them trying to show off more of a street ball vibe I get the 850 too
❤❤❤ I believe Unrivaled will be successful because it opens so many doors, and and it's going into uncharted waters. You can hear the negativity people have towards this league and the WNBA in general, Unrivaled is not counting on people in the United States to make this league a success, their audience will come from steaming services, so they don't have to worry about ticket sales or filing up seats, People don't realize that their are countries that will pay big money for women sports, that's how WNBA players make their money not in the States, so I believe Unrivaled will market it league globaly, and people will pay for it.
I think you are wrong. The reality is that around 65 % of the players on Unrivaled are mediocre at best. Streaming will not happen in other countries, they are limited to the contract with TNT, and they do not like to share their paid content.
@@ToddDietrich-i4s you're saying they're mediocre because they aren't stars on their WNBA teams, with the teams only being 3 players per team on the court it should/could be different, give it a chance before forming an opinion
@@RitaKyeraaFrempongAddo How do you get OP asking if anyone will watch as them wanting it to fail? I love bowling, but I constantly wonder how many will watch the next televised event because bowling isn't popular and has very low viewership.
There’s no excitement. Nobody’s watching. Nobody cares. Stewey has maybe a 10 lesbian fan base; there’s not a household name in the entire league. With or without Caitlin the league lasts 3 years at most. There’s no market for 3x3 in America. It looks too much like playground ball.
Yeah no market for 3x3 but somehow the USA can field a competitive team for it every cycle. Also, Big 3 league has shown people do like 3 on 3 basketball.
Are they going to use a NBA size ball or a smaller one?

Wow! Check out the crowd.

I'll be honest, the timing isn't ideal. They may tweak it in the future but they had to play during the WNBA off-season

I don’t think this league will be successful. How is 3 on 3 better than 5 on 5?
I don't know about "better" but....definitely different
Tbh mist will beat the owls they have a better roster
oooo I hope you're right!
Two years, Max.
Even if its only short lived...the W will be better for it
I love 3x3 so I'm really excited for this
Ehh with the contract and sponsors they have it will last a lot longer than two years.
The only remaining question is: Will any one watch?
Your opinion doesn't matter.
Wishing for someone's business to fail is pure evil.

Yeah...This is gonna suck 😂
Nobody is going to watch this.
😂😂😂 nobody wants to watch em play full court you think we want to watch them play half court? Who going to pay for this league the NBA also? 🤣
Ratings for college and the pros say otherwise my guy.
