- Team Spoon won the 2026 WNBA All-Star Game 129-122 over Team Coop, with the squad coached by WNBA legend Teresa Weatherspoon
- Jonquel Jones earned MVP honors with 22 points, 13 rebounds, and 8 assists, adding a fourth major trophy to a résumé that already includes WNBA season MVP, Commissioner's Cup, and Finals MVP
- Kelsey Mitchell led all scorers with 28 points for Team Coop and set up the highlight of the night when she fed Dominique Malonga for the first WNBA All-Star Game dunk since Sylvia Fowles
- A'ja Wilson played in relaxed mode, at one point backing away to let Angel Reese attempt a layup before still blocking the shot, and later talked coach Cheryl Reeve into a coach's review for possession despite admitting postgame she knew the ball was off her hand
- Caitlin Clark scored 17 points with 5 assists and 4 rebounds, while Olivia Miles added 11 points, 12 rebounds, and 8 assists for Team Spoon
- Michael Voepel argued that Jones, the No. 6 pick in the 2016 draft, should have been selected No. 2 behind current Liberty teammate Breanna Stewart
- Azzi Fudd won the 3-point shooting contest during All-Star Weekend's Friday events
Why it matters: The Chicago weekend functioned as a 'vibes reset' for a league reporter Alexa Philippou said had felt like 'a season of exasperation, not celebration' through the first half — a contrast to last year's All-Star, which sat under the shadow of CBA negotiations. For Jones, the MVP award cements a case that Voepel made explicit: the 2016 draft under-valued her at No. 6 when she has since collected virtually every individual and team honor the league offers.
