Unrivaled 2026

[cancontent]

Unrivaled needs to bribe, cajole, or sue ESPN to include their game box scores in the sports results and their schedule somewhere online. I generally don't have time to watch live basketball, so 90% of my WCBB consumption, especially any time but weekends, is seeing game schedules and DVRing, or watching highlights from box score links. As a result, Unrivaled more or less doesn't exist in my daily sports media consumption universe, and I'm not even sure how you'd go about getting Unrivaled Replays if you didn't record them.

I fully commiserate with you about having the ability to rewatch games. Unfortunately, YouTube access is only available to the International market. Not sure if you have it, but per the Unrivaled site's home page, games can be streamed on HBO Max.

Here's the schedule page from their website for the box scores. Schedule | Unrivaled

Maybe there's a glitch in the Matrix? These Youtube links to the games are available to me, but I'm not sure how as it was my understanding the North America wasn't going to have access. 🤷‍♀️

Pretty impressive that Paige had zero turnovers considering how hard they guarded her.

I blame Canada***: here's what I see from your links:

***More like credit Canada, since you can watch, and I can't. But "blame Canada" has more of a ring to it for some reason. 😂

Season 2 started today. Some standouts:

Allisha Gray

Brittney Sykes

Chelsea Gray--35/5/8/3

Aaliyah Edwards--23/12 but had an injury late

Paige Bueckers--24/5/6

Tip Hayes--20

Don't forget that Paige also had 2 blocks and, I believe, no turnovers.

Was afraid of that. And YouTube gets fussy with VPNs. Sorry my friend.

No they don't but the data is based on one day. And how many people are able to tune in for afternoon games on the first Monday after the Christmas break?

I'm waiting until the end of the season to see how the ratings play out.

I think things may pick up a tad once college football ends too. Right now all of the general media is hyper focused on that.

For those who aren't motivated to read the article, it admits that firm conclusions can't be drawn from one day, but it talks about viewership "red flags." The first flag is that opening day viewership was down from last year's 300,000+ to about 175,00. The second pessimistic flag is this: "Viewership declined as [last] season progressed, but it was never as poor as it was on Monday. And given that viewership declined progressively last season, one would imagine that the same would occur this season, as well."

By the way, thanks @cancontent for those YouTube videos and the Unrivaled schedule. I've never been motivated to watch Unrivaled games, but did watch the YouTube Breeze game. Since I bought a TV recently and now know all the games are televised on TNT and truTV, both of which I get, I'll probably watch some games. Too bad Clark isn't playing. She and Bueckers are the biggest draws for me in the pros, and probably for a lot of other potential viewers.

The writer is entitled to point out red flags, but until the numbers for the entire season come out, I'm not making any judgements. Their tone, to me however, came across as they're ready to write off Unrivaled without seeing how the ratings play out over the course of the season.

The Breeze and Rose teams are 2-0. They face off against each other next. Chelsea Gray vs Paige Beuckers......I LOVE IT!!!!!

Whoever made this has some serious editing talent.

I am loving this season of Unrivaled. With this rookie class and some of the seasoned players, it is nice to see the players compete and show off their skills more. Paige is a beast out there. Same with Sonia. I know the narrative is directed towards a certain player that I will not name but players like Paige, Sonia, Kiki, Maddy, Kelsey, are great for the growth of the game and fun to watch as well.

After last night's games, the in-studio analysts played a game where they predicted various Unrivaled awards at season's end. One of the categories was Defensive Player of the Year, and one picked Alyssa Smith (I can't remember who the other chose), but neither picked Saniya Rivers (who I thought was extraordinary on defense).
Any other opinions out there?

KP went off last night. 38 points, 8 rebounds, and 11 assists! Her Phantom BC beat the Lunar Owls BC. The Owls really miss Napheesa and Skylar. The Mist BC and the Laces BC matchup was exciting. Great games last year day.

Right there with you. All I need is the theme song.

Love the different angles of this shot. While the Owls are off to a rough start, I really enjoyed seeing how Aaliyah, Skylar and Marina play together on the court. They were a lot of fun to watch last night in their first win.

I am interested in the whole Skylar/Marina as teammates working. They both have such an interesting temperament. I do like the Owls and glad that they got their first win last night. Marina and Courtney was interesting. It does seem like Marina knows who to target and who not to target.

Actually, Williams was asked about it last night and she laughed it off. Said she considered Mabrey her friend and didn't take it too personally. If I see it on Twitter again, I'll post it.

Time for some Unrivaled...

Go Mist! Go Phantom! Go Gamecocks! I want nothing but dubs today, no exceptions!

@JellyBean Think you'll enjoy this video that's part of a series Unrivaled have running this season. It talks about this situation and I think you'll get a chuckle out of it. 😁😂

Huge shoutout to the city of Philadelphia and the basketball fans of Philadelphia. Nice turnout to watch Unrivaled. What a nice crowd to watch some great basketball games.

LOL! Thanks for sharing this clip with us. It goes to show that we don't always know the ins/outs of these players connections, so I do feel the need to lower my temperature and tone on how I feel about Marina, a little. 🙂

Glad to see and hear the players. Great stuff.

That was an absolutely fantastic night of basketball!!! Unrivaled Philly started out with some great games and individual performances!
