The high offensive output of the WNBA All-Star Game led ESPN host Elle Duncan to say that many people think it's very rough on live TV.
Whether it is the WNBA or the NBA, it is not uncommon to lack defense in the All-Star Game of Basketball. But Duncan has an interesting way to describe the side of the game during the half-time game during the ABC airing Saturday night.
Duncan threw 82 shots in the first half after seeing Napheesa Collier's team throw 82 votes in Caitlin Clark's 60 season. “Because like a girl traveling to Cancun, there is no D now.”

ESPN analyst Chiney Ogwumike quickly said, “Elle, you're timed out. You're done.” Then the broadcast went into the commercial.
After working on social media on one-line, there are some people who don’t like Duncan’s humor.

“Add it to a long list of why no one takes @wnba or @espn seriously,” said one X user under Duncan's video.

Another wrote: “If Shane Gillis said it, they would try to cancel him.” He refers to the comedian's Espys monologue, which was on the previous turn.
The second half finally started, the offense was more than the defense, as Collier led by 36 points to help her squad beat Clark's 151-131 to win the All-Star Game.
Clark did not compete as she continued to provide care for groin injuries that had been nagging during the 2025 WNBA season. She faced the Connecticut Suns Tuesday, which forced her to get fevered by Indiana during Wednesday’s match against New York Freedom.
