Philly has to wait until 2030 for the arrival of its new WNBA team, but in just a few months the city will host its first professional women's basketball games since 1998. The last professional women's basketball game played in the city was nearly 30 years ago, when the Philadelphia Rage was in the American Basketball League. "This is a league that is continuing to set a precedence for women's basketball across the across the realm." The announcement in Philly comes days after Unrivaled co-founder Collier publicly criticized WNBA Commissioner Cathy Engelbert, saying that she'd been negligent in managing that league. "Unrivaled, this groundbreaking league, is set to elevate the women’s basketball ecosystem as a whole, and we are honored that Philly has been chosen as its first-ever tour stop."
