The GIST: Unrivaled is rocking straight into today’s regular-season finale with four games hitting the hardwood starting at 1 p.m. ET. And that’s only the beginning of the high-stakes hoopla because the first round of the single-elimination playoffs tips off tomorrow.
- Before it starts raining threes, let’s set the stage as the innovative 3v3 league inches closer to crowning its second-ever champion.
📌 Playoff seeding on the line today: All six postseason berths have already been claimed, but today’s games will decide who earns first-round byes to the semifinals and which teams must battle it out in tomorrow’s first round. There’s plenty to play for… unless you’re the already-eliminated Hive and Lunar Owls, who match up in today’s first game. That one’s for pride.
👻 Phantom control their own destiny: Led by the dynamic one-two punch of Kelsey Plum and Aliyah Boston, the Ghost Gang has been on an absolute tear, winning their last six games. If they can make it seven straight tonight at 7:30 p.m. ET against Rose, they’ll lock up the No. 1 seed and punch their ticket to the Big Apple. It’s been waiting for them.
- 🌧️ From there, our money’s on second-place Mist to snag that other bye. They’re sporting a three-game win streak ahead of their 2:15 p.m. ET tilt vs. Vinyl and boast two of basketball’s best two-way players in Allisha Gray and Breanna Stewart. A terrific tandem, indeed.
