Storm's Flau'jae Johnson signing multiyear deal with Unrivaled

Seattle Storm guard Flau'jae Johnson is signing a multiyear deal with Unrivaled, the league announced Monday.

Johnson first got involved with the 3-on-3 league in 2024 when she became one of the first two players to sign an NIL deal with the league, alongside Paige Bueckers. She then deepened her relationship with Unrivaled in 2025 when she became part of the Future Is Unrivaled initiative, a sector of the 3-on-3 league designed to work with the next generation of women's basketball players.

"From signing one of the first NIL deals with Unrivaled to now joining the league as a player, it's been incredible to see this journey come full circle," Johnson said in a statement.

Fellow 2026 WNBA draft picks Lauren Betts, Azzi Fudd and Olivia Miles were also part of the 2025 Future Is Unrivaled draft class. Miles, who the Minnesota Lynx selected with the No. 2 overall pick, is also signed to a multi-year contract with Unrivaled.
