NBA-WNBA shootout with Stephen Curry and Sabrina Ionescu is off. NBA’s Mike Bass: “We weren’t able to land on a plan we thought would raise the bar off of last year’s special moment. We all agreed not to proceed and will instead keep the focus on All-Star Sunday’s new format.” – 11:17 AM

Steve Kerr said he doesn’t know if Steph Curry (37 minutes) and the other veterans will go in Houston tomorrow night: “That’s what makes this loss more frustrating. We’re gonna get into Houston at 3 o’clock because the NBA in its infinite wisdom makes us play an 8:45 game.” pic.x.com/QMSpwKTtaB – 12:33 AM

Warriors lose to the depleted Mavericks in Dallas. Shooters were too cold (Curry/Buddy 5-of-19 on 3s) and too many first half missed layups. They still haven’t won three in a row since mid-November. This one could burn them in the standings. Record back to 27-27. – 12:14 AM

There will be no Stephen Curry-Sabrina Ionescu rematch after all. Curry and Ionescu starred on All-Star Saturday night in Indianapolis last year with a first-of-its-kind, 3-point shootout between them, narrowly won by Curry. But the two will not run it back during this weekend’s festivities in San Francisco, league sources told The Athletic. In a statement, NBA spokesman Mike Bass said, “We weren’t able to land on a plan we thought would raise the bar off of last year’s special moment. We all agreed not to proceed and will instead keep the focus on All-Star Sunday’s new format.” -via New York Times / February 13, 2025
League sources with direct knowledge of the negotiations said Curry and Ionescu were not interested in a rematch. They wanted to expand the competition to include WNBA superstar Caitlin Clark, and potentially Curry’s former teammate Klay Thompson. But when Clark, through a statement issued by her sports agency in January, declined to participate, saying she “wants her first 3-point contest to be at WNBA All-Star in Indianapolis this summer,” it all but doomed the men-against-women shooting contest. -via New York Times / February 13, 2025
