The NBA made the decision not to recreate last year’s All-Star Weekend shooting contest between NBA superstar Stephen Curry and WNBA star Sabrina Ionescu.
NBA Commissioner Adam Silver provided insight into the reasoning behind this choice, explaining that the contest was so special and memorable the previous year that it began to feel unnatural or forced this time around.
“Last year was so magical, that competition, that it started to feel forced,” Silver said. “And I think there was concern from all of us that we just weren’t feeling it.”
