达拉斯翅膀队新秀阿兹·富德在WNBA全明星周末3分大赛中夺冠,成为该项赛事历史上首位新秀冠军 [1]。
富德在决赛中得到30分,击败波特兰队的布里奇特·卡尔顿(19分) [1]。她的得分并列赛事历史第二高,仅次于萨布里娜·伊奥努斯库在2023年创造的37分纪录 [1]。卡尔顿在首轮中得到29分,但在决赛中表现大幅下滑 [1]。
根据新的集体协议,富德因此次冠军获得20,000美元奖金,加上Aflac赞助金共40,000美元 [1]。这是3分大赛奖金首次上升的一年,相比之前增长了八倍 [1]。
Dallas Wings rookie Azzi Fudd made history by becoming the first first-year player to win the WNBA All-Star 3-point shootout [1]. Fudd secured the championship with a final round score of 30 points, tying the second-highest performance in the contest's history [1]. She defeated Portland's Bridget Carleton, who managed 19 points in the final [1].
Carleton had performed strongly in the opening round, posting 29 points, but could not maintain that momentum in the championship round [1]. The all-time record remains held by Sabrina Ionescu, who scored 37 points in 2023 [1].
Under the new collective bargaining agreement, Fudd earned $20,000 for winning the shootout, with an additional $20,000 from Aflac sponsorship, bringing her total prize to $40,000 [1]. This represented the first year the prize money increased eightfold [1].
