Hoops fans, this is your new favorite way to spend game night.

The Unrivaled Basketball Watch Parties at 1972 turn every matchup from the groundbreaking 3x3 women’s league into a full-on celebration. This player-owned league, co-founded by WNBA superstars Breanna Stewart and Napheesa Collier, brings fast-paced games, elite competition, and a totally new format for pro women’s basketball right to the pub screens.

Expect a lively sports-bar vibe with wall-to-wall game coverage, big plays in a smaller court format, and a crowd that’s there for women’s hoops first. The bar keeps the energy up with great food, cold drinks, and special Unrivaled-themed fun all season long.

  • Watch every cut, step-back, and clutch bucket from the Unrivaled 3x3 season in a dedicated fan atmosphere
  • Score exclusive Unrivaled swag during select games with giveaways and promos
  • Settle in with pub grub and drinks while you follow your favorite stars and teams
  • Drop in with friends or roll deep with your basketball crew for a recurring watch-party hangout
