Match Day: Pro Women's Hoops Take Center Stage in Miami

Professional Basketball Heats Up the Magic City
While the Miami Heat are currently on the road facing the Boston Celtics, professional basketball fans in South Florida don't have to look far for elite action today. Miami’s newest professional sports staple, the Unrivaled Basketball League, continues its high-octane 2026 season with a massive double-header tonight at Sephora Arena. As the premier 3-on-3 women's professional league, Unrivaled has turned Medley into a global hub for hoops during the WNBA offseason, featuring some of the biggest names in the sport.
Tonight’s Matchups
- Hive vs. Breeze
Time: 7:30 PM ET
The opening match features the expansion Hive taking on the star-studded Breeze. Fans will be eager to see if the Breeze, led by generational talent Paige Bueckers and rising star Rickea Jackson, can maintain their dominance against a hungry Hive squad looking to climb the standings. - Lunar Owls vs. Laces
Time: 8:45 PM ET
Following the opening game, the Lunar Owls face off against the Laces in a battle of tactical prowess. The Laces have become a fan favorite in Miami for their defensive tenacity, while the Owls are known for their explosive long-range shooting.
Venue and Atmosphere
Both games are taking place at Sephora Arena, located at 7321 NW 75th Street in the Medley area of Greater Miami. Since its inauguration, the 1,000-seat boutique arena has provided one of the most intimate and electric atmospheres in professional sports. The customized court—slightly shorter than a standard WNBA floor—is designed specifically for the fast-paced 3-on-3 format, ensuring that fans are never more than a few feet away from the world-class athleticism on display.
How to Tune In
For those who cannot make it to the arena tonight, the matches will be broadcast live across several major platforms. Coverage begins at 7:30 PM on TNT and truTV, with streaming available via HBO Max. With the NBA's All-Star break approaching and other major leagues like the NHL and MLS currently in a hiatus or pre-season mode, tonight’s Unrivaled double-header stands as the premier professional sporting event in Miami this Friday.
