They should have put both of them in the main 3 point contest. If they allow g league players in the dunk contest, they could put wnba players in the 3 point.
That way we could see Steph shoot 2 rounds...

All-star weekend is just an advertising event with some basketball things sprinkled in.

He was referring to her being told that when she was younger. Regardless he's trying to make the consumers feel bad and root for the WNBA - doubt that strategy ever works.

All Star Weekend is no longer fun.

Curry is the only superstar who participates. Guys like Lebron and KD need to participate. Can you imagine the excitement Lebron would bring if he just participated. It doesn't have to be a dunk contest. Do the 3pt shootout just for fun.

Cmon Bron Bron bring the excitement back to allstar weekend!

Huh? He said the boys she played with in school would say that. He said we've come a long way from that kind of mentality.

Sabrina even had the advantage of using a smaller ball but Steph is too good.

Outside of Brown, this dunk contest is exposing me for being a casual.

She’s 26 years old. How old was she when they said this, 16? We’ve come a long way in 10 years??? I’m getting the feeling that guys have been pass this for much longer.
