Collier denies conflict of interest with Unrivaled, WNBA roles - ESPN

Unrivaled co-founder and Women's National Basketball Players Association Vice President Napheesa Collier took to social media on Saturday afternoon to defend her role in both leagues after an accusation that she and Breanna Stewart have a conflict of interest went viral.

«So let me get this straight… While everyone else was enjoying fireworks, you were thinking about how me and & Stewie of all people are conspiring to force a lockout that would result in less money year-round for WNBA players??» Collier's post on X read.

The post she responded to suggested that Collier and Stewart, who is also a co-founder of Unrivaled and is the president of the WNBPA, could not negotiate the upcoming CBA in «good faith» because of the financial benefits they would receive if the WNBA were to enter a lockout.
