Stephen Curry, Sabrina Ionescu deliver electric 3-point show, and Caitlin Clark feels like next up

Ionescu chose to shoot from the NBA 3-point line.

I really enjoyed it. Sab tied the winner of the 3 point contest and came so damn close to beating Steph. Great show.

Just like the NCAA has the men's winner face off against the women's winner, I'd love to see this be an annual thing. Let whoever gets the higher score in their league's 3-point contest decide the distances, whether it's both shooters going from one distance or going from their league's respective distances.

Also apparently Kenny Smith is an idiot? IDK I was out with friends and then Twitter exploded.

Kenny was ridiculous.

He was going on about how she would have done better if she shot from the WNBA line. Meanwhile, Sabrina lost to Steph but tied the high score from the NBa 3 point competition. Then he started whining about her using the smaller ball. Laughing

Great job by Ionescu...but I wish it was a best 2 out of 3 rounds.

I don’t think that would have worked out any better. Curry is in midseason condition, and it seemed like Ionescu was tiring about half way through.

How about just inviting both of them to the men’s contest? Next year, include Clark too.

2 of 3 would be perfect...Both players had great rounds. I wanted more ...The 3-point contest is multiple rounds...The Man vs Woman 3 pt contest should be the same.

Ionescu lost to Curry...Give someone else a chance...but this time do it at the WNBA All-Star gm weekend....That's if they even have an AS gm this year.

I'd like to see the men play a couple of games with the rim raised a foot, just to see how they would do if they actually had to play basketball.

Steph vs. Sabrina lived up to the hype
