I have conflicting feelings about this move. Obviously I'm super happy to see Angel back, she was great last year.
But I also feel like it's kinda unfair for Rose to be able to do this? Did the other clubs know this was a possibility when they accepted the trade? Could other teams have gotten her?
Turns out, the rumors are true!

Welcome back to Rose BC, Angel Reese!

More #Unrivaled News:

Outside of the Canada vs Diggins and Jackson vs Copper matchups not happening in the 1v1 tournament, Alyssa Thomas and Tiffany Hayes have been replaced by Laeticia Amihere and Aziaha James respectively.

Saniya Rivers instant impact!

Gets up to swat Kiki's shot and then nails the corner 3. Couldn't have asked for a better start to her Vinyl career!

(I am looking past the immediate turnover to KP, that was a freebie 😂)

Candace is taking Jackie Young in the 1v1 tournament.

Renee Montgomery is taking Aaliyah Edwards.

Paige dishing to Court for easy midrange jumpers?

Sign me up.

I'm expecting to hear some news about how the Rose are going to fill that extra spot (assuming a DP promotion) so stay tuned.

🚨 TRADE!!!! 🚨

Courtney Williams to the Breeze

Saniya Rivers to the Vinyl

Azurá Stevens to the Hive

Didn't know we could do this, but hell yeah!

(This is due in part to Aari McDonald being done for the remainder of the season)

I try not to comment on athlete’s personal lives because I think it’s important to be able to appreciate what women athletes do without encouraging parasocial connections. Having said that, I hope Rickea is getting all the support she needs.
February 8, 2026 at 9:21 AM
Well, she in fact picked Kiah Stokes first
I'd love to see Kaitlyn pick a big like NaLyssa or Tina first

Week 2 of Athletes Unlimited starts at 1pm today! Our captains for this week's draft are Kaitlyn Chen, Rebekah Gardner, Aneesah Morrow, and Asia Taylor.

It's very cool to see rookies Kaitlyn and Aneesah thrive in AU so far!

Here it is! We filled out our bracket which surely won't be busted 20 minutes into the event 😂

In case you're looking for some early morning women's sports, USA is taking on Finland in ice hockey!

Should be a great one 🏒🏒

There's a new face on top of the Athletes Unlimited leaderboard after last night's games... Kaitlyn Chen!

Kaitlyn had 18 points on 7/7 field goals last night

According to Doug Feinberg of AP, the WNBA has submitted a new proposal to the WNBPA.

This is considered a response to the players' proposal from Christmas time.

President Nneka today commented about the desire for a season this year, negotiations may finally be picking up steam.

Injury News: According to Alexa Philippou of ESPN, Brionna Jones suffered a meniscus tear while playing overseas with USK Praha.

Her overseas season is done but she's expected to be ready for the start of the WNBA season (whenever that is).

Get well soon, Bri!

This is so tone-deaf when the league can't even be bothered to show up to a negotiating meeting prepared.

If you actually cared about the power and progress of women in sports, you would give into the players' demands today and let the offseason finally commence!!!!!
Celebrating the power, progress, and possibility of girls and women in sports today and always 🧡

Happy National Girls and Women in Sports Day!
