With Team Clark trailing at the break, a courtside voice asked if there’d be a “big pep talk coming at halftime?” Caitlin Clark didn’t miss a beat, to say the least. “Oh no, we’re going to listen to GloRilla and maybe get a drink… I’m just joking alright,” she laughed. Napheesa Collier, however, might’ve taken that one personally. What happened next?
Collier torched the box score like it owed her money. The Lynx star dropped a WNBA All-Star Game record with 36 points on 13-of-16 shooting. She led Team Collier to a 151-131 win, grabbed MVP honors, and took home a bonus check of $5,150… big day for the girl, no? The moment was part revenge tour, part coronation.

But this All-Star storyline? Oh, it’s just getting started. Come back here for more updates, people, this chaos isn’t nearly done cooking!
