As expected, the 2025 WNBA All-Star game was teeming with points. Supernovas lit the Gainbridge Fieldhouse hardwood ablaze, with both Napheesa Collier's and Caitlin Clark's sides resembling trebuchets from long distance at points.

Yet, when the dust settled, only one could claim the title of All-Star Game victor. Collier, who was equal parts general manager, coach, and owner, put forth a starring showcase to uplift her teammates. In the end, her heroics — coupled with those of Skylar Diggins' — were enough to secure a 151-131 win over Clark's crowd of hoopers.

Collier was the game's standout performer. She poured in 36 points on 13-of-16 shooting, breaking Arike Ogunbowale's record for most points in an All-Star Game en route to MVP honors. Ogunbowale's display wasn't aided by the presence of a four-point shot, but Collier had to make them for them to count. She did just that.

Collier was a force in the game's early moments, finding space for herself once she crossed half-court. The half-hearted nature of some of the defensive contests placed on her made things that much easier for the MVP frontrunner, who dropped back-to-back four-pointers in the game's opening 20 minutes to showcase her dominance.

She was soon joined by Diggins, who became the first player in league history to record a triple-double in the All-Star Game. Diggins was desperate to claim a victory after finishing last in Friday's Skills Challenge. With her all-around showing on Saturday, she certainly did her part.

The joust also saw players demand improved revenue splits in their upcoming CBA. All signs are pointing to a hot offseason that could result in a strike if the league fails to give players a fair deal.

All of that is to say, the 2025 WNBA All-Star Game had a little bit of everything. Viewers weren't left disappointed, even if the final margin proved a little wider than they predicted.

2025 WNBA All-Star Game live updates, highlights from Team Caitlin Clark vs. Team Napheesa Collier

(All times Eastern)

10:30 p.m.: Diggins racks up another assist! She has the most assists in an All-Star Game as well! If not for Collier, we know who'd hoist the All-Star Game MVP crown.

10:25 p.m.: Collier has gotten all the plaudits — and rightfully so. But Skylar Diggins recorded the first triple-double in All-Star Game history. And she did so with 11 rebounds! What a display by the veteran!

10:20 p.m.: Collier has done it! She breaks the record for most points in a single All-Star Game with 36 points! Wondrous display by the All-Star captain!

End of third quarter: Team Collier 119, Team Clark 95

10:00 p.m.: The match has remained as uncompetitive as ever, with Collier and Co. on the brink of cruising to an All-Star Game victory. The Lynx superstar looks well on her way to breaking Arike Ogunbowale's record for most points in a single All-Star Game.

End of second quarter: Team Collier 82, Team Clark 60

9:25 p.m.: Team Collier holds a commanding 22-point advantage at halftime courtesy of Collier's heroics and some wondrous long-range shooting. Both Team Clark and Team Collier have sank 10 shots from beyond the arc. But Team Collier has six four-pointers thus far. Expect the defense to get much more aggressive in the final 20 minutes of action.

9:15 p.m.: The pace remains as frenetic as ever, with Collier pouring down points like syrup. She’s up to 18 on the night on 7-of-8 shooting, even canning a four-pointer over Aliyah Boston’s outstretched arm. Team Collier is in control at the moment, although both sides’ defensive efforts have been lackluster, to say the least.

End of first quarter: Team Collier 49, Team Clark 36

9:05 p.m.: Team Collier holds a 13-point edge off the back of impressive shooting from its trio of markswomen: Kelsey Plum (12 points), Kayla McBride (8 points) and Collier (6 points). A reminder for those who forgot: Team Clark is three 30-footers away from getting right back into it.

8:59 p.m.: The shooting has been as strong as advertised thus far, with four-point efforts leaping into the cup with increasing regularity. Through eight minutes, Team Collier leads Team Clark, 31-27. Sabrina Ionescu has eight points — all of which have come from four-point range.

8:46 p.m: As expected, Clark gets the loudest cheer of the player introductions. We’re just moments away from the start of tonight’s contest.

8:35 p.m: Player intros are underway. BIA, the famed bilingual artist, is leading things off with a stirring performance out the gate.

8:15 p.m.: With a players strike potentially on the cards come the end of the 2025 season, the W’s best and brightest are making their views on their labor known. Players from both sides are rocking “Pay us what you owe us” shirts ahead of tonight’s match. Doesn’t get much clearer than that.

8:00 p.m.: With two starters out injured - namesake Caitlin Clark and Mercury star Satou Sabally — Sandy Brondello is making some changes, promoting Kelsey Mitchell and Jackie Young to the starting lineup.
