Clark and Reese starred as Team WNBA beat Team USA once again in the All-Star Game.
Caitlin Clark and Angel Reese stole the show at the 2024 WNBA All-Star game when the pair combined for a beautiful play that drove fans crazy, despite being long-time rivals through the NCAA and into professional basketball.
Both were representing the WNBA as they took on Team USA before heading to the Olympic Games in Paris, France and the mouth-watering dynamic duo didn’t disappoint on Saturday, July 20.

Angel Reese shares her excitement about playing with Caitlin Clark
Clark, of the Indiana Fever, was breaking angles left, right and centre as she drove her team up the court at the Footprint Center in Phoenix, Arizona, before throwing an excellent pass to the Chicago Sky‘s Reese.
The 22-year-old, known for her composure and desire to win, cooly finished off the chance in the fourth quarter to help inspire Team WNBA to a 117-109 victory as she recorded a double-double with 13 points and 11 rebounds.
“It’s so cool,” Reese said of playing with the Fever‘s Clark. “When she gets the ball I’m running looking for the ball because I know she’s going to throw it.
“She’s been great to play with. Hopefully in four years we’ll be Olympians together.”
Caitlin Clark’s 2024 WNBA All-Star Game stats
Clark, the overall first pick of the 2024 WNBA Draft, headed into her rookie All-Star game with a lot of attention on her as she continues to sell out venues across the United States, and although she is fabled for her ability to shoot baskets, she turned creator on July 20.
She only recorded four points and one rebound but through her creative play, she found 10 assists on the night to play her part in getting one over on the Team USA group that snubbed her from the Olympic Games squad.
She’ll look to get her shooting game back on track against the Minnesota Lynx on Friday, September 6, 2024 at the Gainbridge Fieldhouse.
