Unrivaled has announced Stephen Curry — the four-time NBA Champion, two-time MVP and Olympic gold medalist — as the latest big-name investor into the 3-on-3 women’s basketball league on Tuesday.
Curry’s investment was included during Unrivaled’s oversubscribed Series A investment round in December, where the league secured $28 million in Series A funding. Including the $7 million raised during the league’s seed round announced in May 2024, Unrivaled has generated $35 million in investments.
“I am incredibly proud to be joining the Unrivaled family as the league continues to set a new standard for how women’s professional sports should operate—empowering athletes and ensuring they have a real stake in their own success,” Curry said in a statement. “Unrivaled is not just innovating the way we play basketball, but also how we value and invest in the athletes who drive the game forward.”
Curry is the latest icon to invest in the upstart league, joining Alex Morgan and Trybe Ventures, Carmelo Anthony, Giannis Antetokounmpo, Coco Gauff, Michael Phelps, Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis, The Berman Family, Ann Sarnoff, Dawn Staley, Geno Auriemma, David Levy, John Skipper, Moira Forbes, Tyus and Tre Jones, Dan Rosensweig, and Gary Vaynerchuk.
Unrivaled completed its inaugural regular season on Monday night, and will hold its two-day postseason next Monday and Tuesday. The No. 2 seed Rose will face the No. 3 seed Laces in the first semifinal, and No. 1 seed Lunar Owls will face the No. 4 Vinyl in the other. Both winners will advance to Tuesday’s final.
