Allisha Gray has taken the WNBA All-Star weekend by storm. On Friday, the Atlanta Dream guard sent the WNBA community into a buzz by emerging victorious in both the Skills Challenge and the 3-Point Contest. She is now the first-ever player in league history to win both events in the same year.

Gray took home the Skills Challenge after tallying a time of 32.1 seconds in the final round. Edging out Phoenix Mercury's Sophie Cunningham by 2.4 seconds, Gray was able to win a competition that also included participants such as Brittney Griner (Mercury), Marina Mabrey (Connecticut Sun) and Kelsey Mitchell (Indiana Fever).

For more context, the Skills Challenge comprises of multiple obstacles that tests a player's ability to excute various passes and make shots from different areas of the court. The timed nature of the contest also encourages players to dribble as fast as they can from one obstacle to another. From the initial round, the two fastest participants to finish would advance to the final round.

At first, it looked like Gray and Mabrey would be the finalists, as the former had a first-round time of 31.2 seconds while the latter had 35.7. However, Cunningham was able to log 35.5, beating out Mabrey by a tiny margin. Griner finished with 46.3 seconds while Mitchell didn't make the time limit.

Moving on to the 3-Point Contest, the competitors were Gray, Mabrey, Kayla McBride (Minnesota Lynx), Stefanie Dolson (Washington Mystics) and Jonquel Jones (New York Liberty). Just like the Skills Challenge, the top two players would be competing in the final round.

As the first-round dust cleared, it was Jones and Gray standing tall among their opponents. Jones tallied 25 points and Gray had 23. McBride finsihed with 21 points while Dolson and Mabrey logged 20 and 19 points, respectively.

In the deciding round, Gray was the first to step to the plate, tallying 22 points. When it was Jones' turn, the final moments of the contest were anxiety-inducing. With only one basketball remaining, it was make-or-break for Jones, who trailed but had an opportunity for a game-winner. However, her final shot came up short, giving the contest to Gray. Jones tallied 21 points to finish the round.
