Sabrina Ionescu is arguably the greatest WNBA shooter ever. So, fans were excited to see the contest between her and the greatest shooter in the NBA, Wardell Stephen Curry. But Caitlin Clark, despite being the biggest college basketball star for the last two years, hasn’t even played a game in the WNBA yet. But, due to her popularity, a lot of people might like to see her take on Curry next year. 

Nonetheless, on Saturday, Curry, Ionescu, and other NBA stars participated in the 3-point contest. Sabrina Ionescu shot from the NBA’s 3-point line, making it fair for everyone involved. In the contest, Sabrina went first and dropped 26 points, despite shooting far from her usual 3-point line.

However, Curry proved why he is the greatest shooter ever by dropping 29 points and winning the contest. Curry celebrated his victory with a dance before hugging his competitor. The 3-point contest was one of the best events on Saturday’s NBA All-Star weekend festivities. Fans demanded more competition between NBA and WNBA players in the future.

Like many fans, the former NFL quarterback turned analyst Robert Griffin III took to social media to praise both Curry and Ionescu. Griffin said Curry is just better than everyone else in this galaxy.

Sabrina Ionescu put on for the WNBA Shot from the NBA 3 point line and scored just as many as the NBA winner. Steph Curry is just on a different level than the rest of the Galaxy.

Nonetheless, apart from the 3-point contest, there was also a dunk contest featuring Mac McClung. The All-Star weekend will conclude with a game between the Western and Eastern conferences on Sunday.
