As the Unrivaled League kicked off its inaugural season, we were excited to partner with them to provide three custom Dr. Dish CT+ machines. This collaboration supports the league’s mission to elevate women’s basketball by equipping players with the tools they need to sharpen their skills for high-intensity 3-on-3 competition and off-season training ahead of the upcoming WNBA season. It’s been an inspiring start to a league that’s shaping the future of women’s sports. Check it out below!
