The team made the announcement on Monday.
Stewart, 31, will join the team upon the completion of Unrivaled’s season on March 4. She’s in her second season playing for the Mist in the startup league, which she launched alongside fellow WNBA standout Napheesa Collier.
The three-time WNBA champion and two-time MVP previously played for Fenerbahçe Opet in the 2022-23 season, leading the team to the EuroLeague championship while being named the Final Four MVP of the event.
That was the last time Stewart played internationally during the WNBA offseason.
Fenerbahçe Opet has won 19 Turkish Basketball Super League titles and won back-to-back EuroLeague and European Super Cup titles in 2023 and 2024.
Stewart is averaging 19.7 points, 9.4 rebounds and 2.7 assists per game for the Mist, which stand third in the Unrivaled standings at 7-4 with three regular-season games left.
