Kelsey Plum earns WNBA All-Star Game MVP honors as Team Wilson holds off Team Stewart

CHICAGO — Sylvia Fowles, at 36 and in year 15 of a Hall-of-Fame bound career that’s coming to an end after the season, stole the show in her final WNBA All-Star Game.

While her younger peers dashed around the court for long-range three-pointers in a midseason spectacle mostly devoid of defense, the Minnesota Lynx star double teamed Jackie Young, tipped away a pass for a turnover and raced the other end for a right-hand dunk late in the second quarter.

The rest of game was a blur that will fade from memory over time. Team Wilson led for most of the game and held off Team Stewart at the end during the most competitive stretch of the game for a 134-112 victory.
