A season ago, Caitlin Clark made history with 10 assists in an All-Star game. It was a rookie record and one assist short of Sue Bird’s all-time record. In the 2025 edition, the former UConn star saw her record broken at Gainbridge Fieldhouse Arena, not by the Fever star but by her Seattle Storm guard, Skylar Diggins.
Coming in as a reserve for Team Colliers, the 34-year-old guard played for 21 minutes into the game. She made 15 assists, helping Team Collier to a 151-131 victory over Team Clark.

Team Collier was in control of the game right from the tip-off. With healthy lead after the first quarter, the team started to share the possession, handing the former Notre Dame player a chance to record the most assists in the WNBA All-Star game.
Interestingly, her defeat in the Skills contest on Friday night ignited competitive fire in her. She narrated her story for the spectacular performance in the All-Star game.
“I was p***** that I got last in the skills challenge. We came out here to have fun, but I wanted to leave here with something. That’s what I said when I got on the bus,” the talented guard told Holly Rowe in a post-game interview. (via YouTube/ESPN)
