The NBA seeks to replicate last year's successful man vs woman three-point contest by involving WNBA star Caitlin Clark in a similar event during the upcoming All-Star Weekend in San Francisco. Despite interest from league officials, Clark has opted out due to her discomfort with the shooting format, which involves grabbing basketballs from a rack, as her training emphasizes catch-and-shoot and dribble shots. However, sources indicate she might reconsider her decision if adjustments are made, emphasizing the potential excitement surrounding the event.
Clark is not interested in shooting 3-pointers off of a ball rack, considering her practice regimen consists only of catch-and-shoot 3-pointers or shots off the dribble.
The contest is so exciting to league officials that they planned to make it part of Sunday's marquee All-Star Game, instead of being part of the normal Saturday night events.
