The 2025 WNBA All-Star Weekend is ready to bring the fireworks, and the 3-point contest is once again one of the most anticipated events. With elite sharpshooters lining up, this year’s edition promises electric performances.
Each season, the contest raises the bar higher—seasoned legends, and rising stars all gunning for that perfect rack. The battle beyond the arc is more than just a show; it’s become a statement stage for the league’s most lethal shooters.
While the spotlight often shines brightest during the All-Star Game itself, the 3-point shootout has carved out its own moment of glory. The full lineup for 2025 reveals plenty of intrigue, including a few surprises.

Among the headliners is Sabrina Ionescu, who returns after setting the all-time record in 2023 with a jaw-dropping 37-point performance. She’ll be looking to reclaim her title, but standing in her way is the reigning champion, Allisha Gray of the Atlanta Dream, who’s been lights out from deep this season, shooting nearly 39% from beyond the arc.
Adding to the buzz is veteran sharpshooter Kelsey Plum, now with the Los Angeles Sparks, and breakout rookie Sonia Citron from the Washington Mystics. Caitlin Clark, the Indiana Fever rookie sensation, was expected to make her pro three-point contest debut on home court; however, due to a recent groin injury, she will not be participating this year.
