This is INSANE. WNBPA President Nneka Ogwumike in the middle of the WNBA’s tense CBA negotiations and a potential lockout... just became the FIRST player to officially sign with Saudi Arabia–backed Project B, a brand-new women’s basketball league being marketed as a direct rival to the WNBA. In this episode, we break down exactly what Project B is, why it’s backed by Saudi investment money, how it compares to Unrivaled and Athletes Unlimited, and why Nneka’s move could reshape the future of women’s basketball as we know it. This move comes as the WNBA and WNBPA battle through CBA talks with salary, revenue-sharing, and offseason restrictions at stake. With top players already invested in rival offseason leagues like Unrivaled and Athletes Unlimited, Nneka’s deal could shift power, money, and attention away from the WNBA... What happens from here!?
