Sykes is the only Syracuse alum playing in the league and she’s been showing her ability to thrive in the 3 on 3 format. With two weeks left in the regular season, Sykes and Rose BC will be one of the four teams who will meet in a single-elimination playoff to crown the first Unrivaled champs. The playoffs will begin with the semi-finals on Sunday March 16th and championship game on Monday March 17th.
In addition to her work on the court, Sykes is pulling double-duty in the post-game media scrums.
