The 2025 WNBA All-Star weekend is tipping off Friday night with the Skills Challenge and 3-Point Contest at Gainbridge Fieldhouse in Indianapolis. The show will go on despite Indiana Fever star Caitlin Clark sitting out the 3-point Contest and the All-Star Game due to injury.

Ionescu also passed on the event last season. While she did not take part in the WNBA's 3-point contest, she did participate in a 3-point competition against Golden State Warriors star Stephen Curry during the 2024 NBA All-Star weekend. Curry defeated Ionescu by just three points in an event that was well-received by fans.

For her first WNBA All-Star Weekend, Mystics' Rookie Sonia Citron rocked a custom All-Star colorway of the unreleased Nike Ja 3.

The WNBA has six all-stars from the past three draft classes, so Caitlin Clark isn’t the only reason the talk around the league is all about the kids.

The 2025 WNBA All-Star Game is scheduled for Saturday, July 19 at Indiana's Gainbridge Fieldhouse, home of the Fever. The full pool of players in this year's game was announced last week, and captains Caitlin Clark and Napheesa Collier subsequently drafted their squads for the game.

Skylar Diggins, Sonia Citron and Jackie Young were selected as reserves for this Saturday's WNBA All-Star game to be held in Indianapolis
