NBC Universal, Inc. Warriors star Steph Curry won the inaugural NBA vs. WNBA 3-Point Challenge by a score of 29-26 over New York Liberty guard Sabrina Ionescu on Saturday.

The inaugural NBA vs. WNBA 3-point challenge on Saturday night definitely delivered.

It featured Warriors legend Stephen Curry up against New York Liberty star Sabrina Ionescu, two of the best shooters in their respective leagues at Gainbridge Fieldhouse during NBA All-Star Weekend.

Ionescu went first and was on fire, recording 26 points thanks to a stellar start.

But Curry is the greatest shooter of all time for a reason, and he eclipsed Ionescu's mark with 29 points to claim the winning belt.

“If you can shoot, you can shoot," Ionescu said after the competition. "It doesn’t matter if you’re a boy or a girl.”
