Ogwumike Sets All-Star Scoring Record as Malonga Dunks in Record-Setting WNBA Weekend

Nneka Ogwumike became the WNBA All-Star scoring leader as Dominique Malonga dunked for the first time in an All-Star game, helping Team Spoon defeat Team Coop 129–122 before a record 19,783 at Chicago’s United Center. Jonquel Jones earned the All-Star MVP, dedicating it to a late aunt, while the Chicago Sky were absent from the All-Star roster and commissioner Cathy Engelbert was booed during the trophy handoff, underscoring a weekend that felt celebratory despite league challenges.

WNBA CBA talks hinge on money and housing, says union president

Union president Nneka Ogwumike says revenue sharing and team-funded housing are the two biggest remaining hurdles in WNBA CBA talks. Negotiations continue into a fifth day as both sides push to finalize terms ahead of a May 8 season start. The union has sought gross revenue share (with talks down from an initial 40% to the mid-20s), while the league has proposed staying with net revenue and gradually phasing housing payments. If resolved, the season could proceed on time; Commissioner Engelbert says a deal by Monday is crucial to avoid disruptions, with preseason games and other league activities already on the calendar.
