Unrivaled 3×3 Basketball Update
The Unrivaled 3×3 basketball league is heating up, with Rose BC surging to second place in the standings thanks to a five-game winning streak led by Angel Reese. The Chicago Sky star has been impressive, registering the league's first-ever 20+ point, 20+ rebound game and following it up with 23 points and 14 rebounds in a win over Phantom BC.
Leadership and Improvement
Reese's improved gameplay and leadership have not gone unnoticed, with Phantom BC's Natasha Cloud praising her after their matchup. Cloud acknowledged Reese's finishing abilities and her role in setting the tone for Rose BC, saying, "She's finishing now, and she's also taking a lot of leadership with a Rose team that has done a really good job of getting themselves back." Cloud's comments come as a response to criticism Reese has faced, with the Phantom BC player urging critics to give Reese her due respect.
Playoff Implications
As the Unrivaled 3×3 basketball league approaches its first-ever playoffs, Rose BC is well-positioned to make a deep run. With less than a month to go in the regular season, the next few weeks will determine which four teams make it to the playoffs. The Lunar Owls, led by co-founder Napheesa Collier, have already punched their postseason ticket, while Rose BC, Laces BC, and Vinyl BC are currently above the postseason cut-off line. The Mist and Phantom BC are only one game behind, making for a competitive and exciting finish to the season.
