Megan Rapinoe is truly an American pioneer. The USWNT starlet is among the greatest players of all time. She has enjoyed a decent career so far, both internationally and domestically.

Moreover, she has won a series of laurels for herself. It seems age is just a number for her, as even at the age of 37, she is defying all the odds. Besides being a soccer player, she has also made quite a name off the pitch. She has been known as a prolific supporter of women’s equality and recently helped her national camp win the fight for equal pay.

However, it hasn’t been a good weekend for her after she endured a narrow loss in the opening game of the NWSL. Moreover, she also received sad news regarding the national camp. However, that didn’t stop her from witnessing the emphatic clash in the NBA.

Megan Rapinoe witnesses emphatic NBA clash

Yesterday, the Brooklyn Nets made an enthralling comeback against the Houston Rockets. The Nets surged in the fourth quarter to make an epic recovery. It was indeed a brilliant match, and it seems Rapinoe also got to witness some brilliant play.

The OL Reign forward was found sitting inside the Barclays Center to watch the emphatic clash. Famous columnist and NBA writer Barbara Barker also shared a picture of the legendary player enjoying the game with the caption, “Megan Rapinoe in the house.”

The Brooklyn Nets also welcomed the player in style, as they hailed the three-time US soccer Olympian in front of thousands of people on their big TV screens. Moreover, it was a thrilling experience for Rapinoe, as she also shared a message on her Instagram story saying, “Thank you for having me.”

Either way, it was a brilliant display from the Nets, thanks to a superb display from Cameron Johnson, who scored 31 points. For the Rockets, Kevin Porter Jr. also scored 31 points; however, they could hold onto their earlier lead. Either way, it was a nail-biting game that Rapinoe needed after hearing the news regarding the national camp.

Rapinoe was left out of the USWNT roster for the friendlies

After enduring a tough loss in the opening game of the NWSL, Rapinoe has also been left off the USWNT roster for the April friendlies. This would be the last friendly fixture among women’s teams, as the 2023 World Cup will begin on Thursday, July 20th.

The ladies will only face the Republic of Ireland on two separate occasions. They will play the first game on Saturday, April 8, at the Q2 Stadium in Austin. Meanwhile, they will play the second one three days later, on Tuesday, April 11, at the CITYPARK in St. Louis.

Either way, the former Ballon d’Or winner hasn’t been included in the roster. Perhaps she might be needing some rest, but either way, nothing has been said about her absence.
