One last possibility is that instead of Clark featuring in the NBA All-Star weekend, an NBA player such as Steph Curry could compete vs. the Fever star during the 2025 WNBA All-Star weekend. Either way, it's somewhat bad news for fans who were expecting Clark to make an appearance in front of the NBA crowd in February 2025.

"Caitlin Clark has told the NBA she is disinclined to participate in an All-Star Game 3-point contest next month that could include Steph Curry, Klay Thompson and Sabrina Ionescu, sources told SBJ, although indications are the league is still in discussions with Clark’s representatives."

The Indiana Fever star decided she wants to wait until the WNBA All-Star Weekend to take part in a 3-point contest.

Caitlin Clark has reportedly turned down an invitation to compete in the upcoming three-point contest at NBA All-Star Weekend in San Francisco.

Still, it would have Indiana Pacers ties if they could utilize Caitlin Clark's star power during the festive event. However, the Fever star said no to the NBA. Last season, Golden State Warriors Stephen Curry beat WNBA's New York Liberty Sabrina Ionescu in a one-on-one 3-point shootout.
