Caitlin Clark. Hardly anyone can deny the significant waves this name has made as a rookie in the WNBA. And it was without a doubt of getting repeated if the ROTY would have accepted $1 Million to be a part of the latest 3×3 league Unrivaled. However, by the looks of some recent developments, this dream collaboration will probably elude the passionate women’s basketball fans. Still, it doesn’t affect Milwaukee Bucks’ dynamic No.34 Giannis Antetokounmpo. Don’t believe us? Just wait until you get a glimpse of his latest financial move.
Build Your Legacy Ventures. The name rings so many bells for NBA fans. Just 24 hours ago, Giannis Antetokounmpo flaunted his Entrepreneurship by announcing its launch. As it turns out, it will now be the latest firm willing to collaborate with Breanna Stewart and Napheesa Collier’s Miami-based venture. According to the latest reports, through this firm, the 2021 NBA champion has decided to make a seed investment into the Unrivaled. The step was taken despite Caitlin Clark’s participation hanging in the balance.
Build Your Legacy (BYL) Ventures’ primary investments target the sports and entertainment sector. Moreover, the firm is a testament to the Antetokounmpo family’s dedication which they wish to use to foster innovation and entrepreneurship. Circling back to the part of their Unrivaled collaboration, BYL’s inclusion will surely boost the financial morale of the league. Not sure by how much especially when all the 36 participants have secured a whopping sum of $250,000 for their 8-week availability.

As for Antetokounmpo, his growth is reflected by the fact that he now joins NBA heavyweight Kevin Durant and tennis icon Serena Williams to embark on a journey toward venture capital investment. This does not come as a surprise given the fact that the 2x MVP’s previous 2 deals amount to $400 Million.
Regardless of the suspense that looms over Caitlin Clark’s unrivaled plans, WNBA fans can till then bask in what she has to offer on the NWSL front.
