The WNBA All-Star weekend tipped off with New York Liberty's Natasha Cloud winning the Kia WNBA Skills Challenge, while her teammate Sabrina Ionescu won the WNBA STARRY 3-Point Contest.

On Saturday, Team Clark locked horns with Team Collier; however, the Indiana Fever star Caitlin Clark missed the game due to an injury. With the star guard absent, Team Collier secured a 151-131 win against Team Clark.

For Team Clark, it was Fever's Kelsey Mitchell, who scored a team-high 20 points on 8-for-13 shooting, including 3-for-7 from the three-point line. She also grabbed two rebounds, dished out two assists and stole the ball twice in 21:10 minutes.

Most of Team Clark's points came through their reserves, as Golden State Valkyries' Kayla Thornton, Seattle Storm's Gabby Williams, Washington Mystics' Kiki Iriafen and Brittney Sykes combined to score 64 points.

However, it was Napheesa Collier who broke the WNBA record for most points in the All-Star Game. The 6-foot-1 forward scored 36 points, breaking the previous scoring record of 34, set by the Dallas Wings guard Arike Ogunbowale last season.

Team Collier's reserves combined to score 67 points.
