Kendys Parker criticizes the game in the WNBA match
- Kendys Parker criticizes the game in the WNBA match for the lack of competition.
- Kelsey Plum proposes financial stimuli for increasing the intensity of the game.
- The match set a record for the number of points scored, but also drew criticism.
Kendys Parker, a seven-time WNBA star, expressed dissatisfaction with the quality of the game in the match that took place on July 19, 2025. She called the match "disappointing" during a podcast, stating that players should not be allowed to play in jerseys with the inscription "Pay us what we're worth," and then show such a game.
The match established a WNBA record for the number of points scored. The team of the Colliers outperformed the Clarks with a score of 151-131. The outstanding performance was shown by Nephiza Colliers, who scored 36 points. However, the game began with a lack of defense, which drew criticism.
Kelsey Plum, a player for the Los Angeles Sparks, proposed a new approach to the game, suggesting that Netflix be involved in creating a prize fund of $5 million. She believes that financial stimuli could enhance the competitiveness of the game. Plum noted that the match should be more intense so that players risk injuries due to large prizes.
However, some, like Aliya Boston, believe that the match should remain a festive event where players can simply enjoy the game, especially since another game will take place in just two days.
