The Rose BC vs. Phantom BC encounter was unique. Both teams were in the playoffs after their late surge in the 2026 Unrivaled league, but they needed to set the tone for the playoffs and play at 100% in the games. While Aliyah Boston uncharacteristically failed to make an impact, Kelsey Plum stood out with her game-winning performance.
In earlier games, AB and KP scored 30 points each to win the game. Boston gushes over Plum’s push in the historic game. But against Rose BC, the Sparks guard took control of the game, proving her capabilities against the league’s top side.
Kelsey Plum Completes The Comeback
The Unrivalled Season 2 regular games continued to impress fans with their gameplay, exciting matchups, and top-notch finishes. The Phantom BC vs Rose BC lived up to the expectations, and the current number 1 team faced the defending champions to prove their credentials.
In the game, Aliyah Boston and Chelsea Gray were quieter than their regular game, while Kelsey Plum continued her scoring spree, single-handedly carrying the offense for her team. When the Rose BC were leading by 12 points at the half, it looked like a game for the 2025 champions, but the Sparks guard exploded with 35 points and hit a game-winner to put the game to bed.
