“At this point Stephen Curry versus Sabrina Ionescu is very likely for next year…I’m told with Caitlin Clark and potentially Klay Thompson to make it 2v2”. Shams Charania had this to say last April, amid speculation over the events that would take place during the upcoming All-Star Weekend. One of the most prominent highlights of the previous event was the 3-point contest between Stephen Curry and WNBA Star Sabrina Ionescu. Given that the Bay Area would be hosting the upcoming weekend, it was safe to assume that things would be kicked up a notch by adding two other shooters to the competition. Unfortunately, Charania’s prediction came months before Klay Thompson left the Warriors for the Dallas Mavericks. However, from what Thompson recently had to say, being with another team wouldn’t stop him from being a part of the friendly competition.
In the aftermath of the Mavericks’ 130-108 win against the Washington Wizards, the 34-year-old player engaged in a Q&A session. Amongst the questions about the recent matchup was one about the All-Star Weekend. Though it is not confirmed that a 3-point contest would take place, Thompson was asked if he would take part.
The player laughed, took some time to think, and said, “That’d be fun. I don’t know the details, but if the opportunity presents itself, that would be cool to be a part of.” Well, then, an invitation is all that needs to be sent.

If Stephen Curry is going to have Klay Thompson as a partner, then shouldn’t Sabrina Ionescu too? Well, as it turns out, one name that is being floated as the other part of the WNBA duo is Caitlin Clark! In fact, Reggie Miller even indicated something to highlight that the WNBA star would very well be a part of the event.
