Paige Bueckers has a sweet new NIL deal with Breanna Stewart and Napheesa Collier's Unrivaled basketball league

UConn guard Paige Bueckers has a dope new NIL deal with Breanna Stewart and Napheesa Collier's Unrivaled basketball league.

Paige has been having one heck of an offseason. She attended the WNBA Draft to support her former teammates, has been to multiple WNBA games and even made an appearance during WNBA All-Star weekend. In other words, her WNBA ties are already DEEP. So, it's not entirely shocking that Paige has a fantastic new NIL deal with a new basketball league, Unrivaled, created by WNBA stars Breanna Stewart and Napheesa Collier.

Per Shams Charania of The Athletic, Bueckers is expected to join the league after her first WNBA season. (Assuming she declares for the WNBA Draft in 2025 and is drafted, she won't suit up for Unrivaled until 2026.) Her new deal also makes her the first college athlete to receive ownership equity in a league.
