Amidst a breakout season in the WNBA, Jessica Shepard has garnered the interest of other professional basketball leagues.
For the first time, Shepard will play in Unrivaled during this upcoming offseason. The 3-on-3 women’s basketball league announced Wednesday, June 8 that they signed Shepard to a multi-year deal, a week after she was named as a starter in the WNBA All-Star game for the first time ever.
Shepard has previously spent her offseasons playing in Europe, most recently for clubs in Greece and Italy. She was named All-EuroLeague Second Team this past spring and in 2025 was the All-Greek A1 Player of the Year.
“I am really excited to be joining Unrivaled for the coming seasons. I’ve heard nothing but great things since the league started,” Shepard said in a statement. “I’m looking forward to competing and playing with the best players in the world in a different setting, as well as developing my game.”
