‘It was perfect’: Curry edges out Ionescu in NBA v WNBA three-point contest

• Players both shot from NBA three-point line in contest
• Curry claims title with narrow 29-26 victory

Stephen Curry was on a roll - and it was barely enough to beat Sabrina Ionescu. Fittingly, he won by three.

The Golden State star and NBA's all-time three-point king beat Ionescu 29-26 in the Steph v Sabrina competition at All-Star Saturday night, the first of what may become a regular fixture at the league's showcase weekend.

For us to deliver a show like that, it was perfect," Curry said. As much excitement as you can build in that short amount of time with two great shooters going at it. This is something we'll remember for a long time."
