Ionescu and Clark, both known for their exceptional long-range shooting, have been among the top performers in the WNBA. During the 2024 season, Clark led the league in three-pointers made and attempted, while Ionescu ranked fourth. Their combined firepower would make for an exciting and highly competitive matchup against the Splash Brothers.
The idea of a two-on-two shooting contest has generated significant buzz among basketball fans, who are eager to see the best shooters from the NBA and WNBA go head-to-head.
While the event is not yet confirmed, the enthusiasm from both players and fans suggests that it could become a reality in the near future. If it does, the matchup between Ionescu and Clark against Curry and Thompson would undoubtedly be a highlight of NBA All-Star Saturday, similar to this year’s contest between Curry and Ionescu.
