WNBA All-Star Game: Arike does it again, Clark and Reese help

PHOENIX -- Breanna Stewart summoned her inner Yogi Berra after Team WNBA upset Team USA at the 2024 WNBA All-Star Game on Saturday night.

"It was like a little bit of a déjà vu feeling, honestly," Stewart said.

All over again.

Saturday unfolded in an eerily similar way to the 2021 All-Star Game in Las Vegas: Team WNBA pulled off an eight-point win again, 117-109 this time. Arike Ogunbowale led all scorers, this time with a WNBA All-Star Game-record 34 points. And Ogunbowale won MVP. Again.

This year's WNBA All-Star Game was part of a weekend that rewrote the record books, from Allisha Gray's historic double win in the skills challenge and 3-point contest on Friday night to Ogunbowale's starring role Saturday, and from Stewart becoming the first player with 30 points and 10 rebounds to Angel Reese becoming the first rookie in WNBA All-Star history with a double-double.
