WNBA star Kelsey Clark has chosen to focus on the WNBA All-Star 3-point contest instead of participating in the NBA All-Star 3-point contest, aiming for her debut in the WNBA event.
WNBA star, Kelsey Clark , will not participate in the men's NBA All-Star 3-point contest , opting instead to focus on competing in the WNBA All-Star 3-point contest later this year. Last year, Sabrina Ionescu represented the WNBA in a head-to-head 3-point challenge against Steph Curry during the NBA All-Star weekend.
Clark, who was named the WNBA Rookie of the Year in 2023, is aiming to make her debut in the WNBA All-Star 3-point contest at the 2025 WNBA All-Star weekend, which will be held in her hometown of Indianapolis, Indiana. Clark's decision to prioritize the WNBA All-Star event signifies her commitment to showcasing her skills within her league. It also highlights the growing recognition and visibility of women's basketball, particularly with the recent success of the WNBA All-Star weekend events. Ionescu's participation in last year's NBA All-Star weekend demonstrated the crossover appeal of basketball and paved the way for Clark's ambition.While Ionescu is planning to attend the NBA All-Star festivities again, it is unknown if she will compete in the 3-point competition. Clark and Ionescu both sat out of the WNBA 3-point contest last year during the league's All-Star weekend in Phoenix. Clark had a remarkable rookie season, averaging 19.2 points, 8.4 assists, and 5.3 rebounds across 40 regular-season games.
