Curry holds the NBA record for most three-pointers with 3,585.

But last year, Ionescu set a new WNBA record for making the most three-pointers in one season with 128.

During last season's three-point competition, she set an all-time WNBA and NBA record, scoring 37 out of 40 points.

Ionescu took to X to let fans know that she'll shoot from the NBA line to ensure a level playing field.

Curry told TNT that he thinks "this is like the coolest thing ever.".

I love the confidence, I love the competition.

It’s a new format on that stage.

Obviously, I’m coming to win.

I think she is too, Steph Curry, via statement.

Each regular bucket will be worth $1,000, and each money ball will be worth $2,000.

The "STARRY Range Ball," shot from 29 feet and 9 inches away, will be worth $3,000.

All proceeds will go to charity.
