Rose BC is a part of Unrivaled, a new three-on-three league for players to compete in during the WNBA offseason, founded by Napheesa Collier and Breanna Stewart, set to begin on Jan. 17.
Collier and Stewart previously faced off in the 2024 WNBA Finals, which saw Stewart’s New York Liberty defeat Collier’s Minnesota Lynx in five games to claim their first championship.

Reese will team up with fellow WNBA All-Stars Chelsea Grey of the Las Vegas Aces and Kahleah Copper of the Phoenix Mercury. Coming off a remarkable season, Reese received a Rookie of the Year vote and set the WNBA record for consecutive double-doubles with 15, along with the highest rebound average of 13.1.
After recovering from a wrist injury that cut short her rookie campaign, Reese is eager to make an impact with Rose BC as they kick off their season against Vinyl BC on Jan. 17.
