Alex Bazzell Shrugs Off Conflict Of Interest Claims
Napheesa Collier is heavily involved with the recently launched 3×3 league along with the WNBA. On the contrary, she is also a board member in the WNBA players’ association wing, the WNBPA. Thus, there have been numerous instances where Collier has been accused of having a conflict of interest. But as per her husband, Alex Bazzell, no such issue exists.
“Unrivaled’s ownership group has never looked at the league as a ‘competitive tool’ against the WNBA. There’s so many positives from us both being in existence. I tell people all the time: The WNBA continuing to grow and thrive helps our league. … I’m hopeful they come to a CBA agreement,” Bazzell said. (via Front Office Sports)
Thus, with things looking upbeat, it now remains to be seen what happens next.
