The WNBA made waves during All-Star Weekend when the players took the floor ahead of the July 19 game wearing shirts that read, "Pay Us What You Owe Us." It was a loud message sent to the league in reference to the ongoing collective bargaining agreement negotiations.

"Y'all cannot come out there with those shirts of 'Pay Us What You Owe Us,' and then do that in the All-Star Game," Parker said.

Consider WNBA legend Candace Parker not a fan of this year's All-Star game. During the WNBA's marquee event, Team Napheesa Collier beat Team Caitlin Clark in a 151-131 blowout win in Indianapolis that most can agree was more of a friendly backyard shoot-around than a serious professional matchup.
