Golden State Warriors star Steph Curry is set to face off with New York Liberty star Sabrina Ionescu in a three-point competition on Saturday night. The NBA is showcasing one of the WNBA's brightest stars on one of their biggest stages, and against one of their biggest stars. 

While Curry is of course the greatest shooter in basketball history, Ionescu is a sniper herself, and is confident she can give the Golden State Warriors star a real challenge. When asked during All-Star media day for his prediction for Steph vs. Sabrina, Denver Nuggets star Nikola Jokic went with Curry.

"Steph changed the game of basketball, so I'm going to say Steph," Jokic said.

NBA All-Star Saturday Night is always one of the most exciting days of the year for basketball fans, and the league has done a good job adding this new battle between Curry and Ionescu. Showcasing one of the best players in the WNBA, along with the greatest shooter ever, the NBA is excited to put on this show between two massive basketball stars.

Ionescu has said she will shoot from the NBA three-point line to make things even, which adds another element of intrigue to this already exciting battle. While Jokic is rolling with Curry because the Warriors star changed the game, several other NBA stars have chosen Ionescu to take down the game's best shooter.
