Lunar Owls vs. Phantom
Phantom suffered its fifth loss and second defeat to the Lunar Owls. Despite improving their shooting percentage in the second matchup, they could not keep pace with the Lunar Owls’ momentum. The Lunar Owls achieved a perfect 100% from the free-throw line, and their 3-point shooting percentage of 52.9% gave them a substantial lead against Phantom. Both teams had players contributing in double figures, with Allisha Gray scoring 23 points for the Lunar Owls and Brittney Griner scoring 23 for Phantom.
Rose vs. Mist
Rose BC secured a second win to improve its winning percentage and place them third on the table. Mist lost for the second time to the Rose BC, extending their losing streak to two and putting them in last place. It has been rough so far for the Mist, who have secured only two wins against the Phantom (second last on the table) and Vinyl (fourth in the table). Kahleah Copper led the Rose with 21 points and Angel Reese registered a double-double with 12 points and 12 rebounds. The Mist was led by Rickea Jackson, who scored 17 points and had seven rebounds.
Laces vs. Vinyl Canceled
The Laces versus Vinyl game was canceled. Unrivaled released a statement stating, “To prioritize player safety and health, Unrivaled will be canceling tonight’s matchup between Laces BC and Vinyl BC.”
On another note, the Laces signed Kiki Jefferson to a relief player contract. Jefferson was drafted by the Minnesota Lynx, 31 overall in the 2024 WNBA Draft.

It was like deja vu with the Lunar Owls securing their second win against the Mist with another four-point difference (85-81).
