The Unrivalled league brought many sporting stars out to watch the basketball extravaganza in the shorter format of the game. NBA star Kevin Durant attended the game, while sprinter Usain Bolt was also in attendance for the Season 2 matches. Usain Bolt declared himself Paige Bueckers’ fan after the games and even promised to buy Dallas Wings season tickets. One former WNBA star, Chennedy Carter, also attended the game, which rekindled a few memories for the fans.
The reason for this was the choice of the game, as the former Chicago Sky player attended the former Chicago Sky coach Teresa Weatherspoon’s team game.

Right after the end of the WNBA season, when the Unrivaled was announcing its roster, Carter’s cryptic ‘announcement’ post sparked Unrivaled’s return. While that didn’t happen, the player was at the Unrivalled games showing support to her former coach, Teressa Weatherspoon.
In a video shared by a fan, the guard was courtside, showing support for the Vinyl BC team, which also qualified for the playoffs.

The guard demonstrated strong support for former Chicago Sky head coach “T-Spoon” when the franchise replaced her ahead of the 2025 season. This support highlights a deep, positive connection formed during the 2024 WNBA season, when Weatherspoon served as a mentor to Carter and Angel Reese, the team’s guard-forward duo.
