Caitlin Clark has told the NBA she is disinclined to participate in an All-Star Game three-point contest next month that could include Steph Curry, Klay Thompson and Sabrina Ionescu, sources told SBJ, although indications are the league is still in discussions with Clark’s representatives.

Sources said Clark is not interested in shooting three-pointers off of a ball rack — considering her practice regimen consists only of catch-and-shoot three-pointers or shots off the dribble — and, unless she is persuaded otherwise, she will decline the invitation.

That decision would be somewhat of a blow to the league, which had contemplated moving what they call Steph vs. Sabrina 2.0 to the Sunday night of All-Star weekend, to be staged in between the second semifinal and championship game of the first ever All-Star tournament in San Francisco.

In another development, the league officially announced its Rising Stars Challenge rosters today, revealing that Bronny James would not be one of the seven G League players participating in the event. There had previously been the remote possibility that, if Bronny James was part of a team that won the Rising Stars Challenge, he could possibly face off against his father LeBron James in an All-Star semifinal on Sunday. But, according to Bleacher Report’s Chris Haynes, Bronny (averaging 16.3 points, 4.2 rebounds and 4.2 assists in the G League) declined an invitation to play.

The league has spent the past year attempting to spruce up the Sunday portion of the All-Star Game, eventually drawing up the four-team tournament that included three teams of eight NBA All-Stars, plus the Rising Stars winner. And the idea of adding Clark to mix became a peripheral priority.

According to sources, the league reached out to the Fever guard through her close associates and agents, and the possibility still exists she could still accept their three-point shooting invitation. One scenario would have an NBA player such as Curry conceivably reciprocating and doing a similar shoot-out at the WNBA All-Star Game next summer.

“I wouldn’t say it’s over until the thing happens,’’ a source said of Clark’s decision. “A lot of this stuff comes together very, very late.’’
