Seattle Storm rookie Flau’jae Johnson has signed a multi-year contract with Unrivaled, the 3-on-3 league announced on ​Monday.

The 22-year-old guard from LSU ‌is the second member of the WNBA’s 2026 draft class to sign with Unrivaled after Minnesota Lynx guard Olivia Miles.

Johnson and Miles ‌were ​both part of the ⁠2025 Future is ⁠Unrivaled class, an NIL initiative that included fellow WNBA rookies Lauren Betts, Azzi Fudd, Ta’Niya Latson and Kiki Rice. ​Fudd announced last week that she will play instead for Project B, ⁠a global league ⁠launching this December.

“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 released by ⁠the league.

Johnson is averaging 11.4 points, 4.9 rebounds and 2.3 assists through 17 games (all starts) in ⁠her ‌first season with the Storm. ⁠She is shooting only 34.0% ​from ‌the field, including 25.0% from ​3-point range.

Johnson ⁠was a two-time All-American at LSU, where she won a national championship in 2022-23 and averaged 14.6 points and 5.3 rebounds in 141 career games (139 starts).
