🚨 JUST IN: Plum warns competitors she won’t share Steph Curry’s advice, hinting at a hidden edge ahead of the 3-point showdown! ⚡.BT

Kelsey Plum didn’t just arrive on the SportsCenter set—she burst onto it like someone who had just sprinted straight out of one world and into another. Moments earlier, cameras had shown a completely different segment. Then suddenly, there she was: fresh outfit, sharp energy, quick grin, no apology for the chaos.

“Superwoman,” the interviewer joked.
Plum didn’t deny it. Honestly, she wore the title like it fit.

Everything around her was frantic, rushed, improvised. And she laughed because that’s exactly what All-Star Weekend feels like: hurry up, hurry up, hurry up… then wait.

SportsCenter asked her a simple question—how do you get ready for a three-point contest?
Plum didn’t even blink.

“You don’t.”

And she meant it. No routine. No overthinking. Definitely no deep breathing meditation moment. Her explanation was both brutally honest and painfully relatable for any athlete thrown into the circus of All-Star festivities.

“You warm up, then you’re waiting an hour,” she said, rolling her eyes just enough to make it iconic. She had been told she was the first shooter—and she wasn’t thrilled. She even tried to play the seniority card.

“I was like, can I at least go third?”
Nope.
They sent her out first anyway.

The Competition? Everyone. Absolutely Everyone.

When asked who her toughest competition would be, Plum didn’t single out a rival.

“Honestly, everyone can shoot,” she said, shrugging like it was obvious.

The twist?
None of them had time to practice.
Not one.

The entire contest, she explained, is pure instinct. No fine-tuning. No repetitions. Just a group of elite shooters stepping into chaos and hoping their muscle memory saves them.

And still—there’s pressure.

“It’s not that serious… but also, it is.”

Plum tried to downplay it, insisting that shooting is something she’s done her whole life. But then she broke the façade with a grin:

“There’s a lot of money on the line.”

She wasn’t kidding.
Courtney Williams had already joked she wanted everyone to get that $60,000 payout from the skills contests.

Plum admitted the tension is real, but what matters most is avoiding the biggest killer in shooting: tightness. If you shoot scared, you lose. If you shoot stiff, you’re done.

“You gotta be fluid,” she said. And if anyone knows how to shoot loose and lethal, it’s Kelsey Plum.

The Secret Text to Steph Curry

Then she dropped the moment that made the internet stop.

“I did text Steph,” Plum admitted.

She called him “King Solomon,” which made the entire set break into laughter. But the advice he gave her?
Locked in a vault.

“I’m not giving you the gems,” she teased. “Someone could be watching. They’ll steal it.”

Only Plum could deliver trash talk, humor, and strategy-preserving secrecy all in one breath.

A Quick Goodbye, Because All-Stars Don’t Get Breaks

The interviewers tried to squeeze more out of her, but Kelsey was already being pulled in another direction—treatment, warm-ups, duties, obligations. All-Star Weekend never stops moving.

“Go get your treatment,” they urged.

But Plum didn’t rush off before giving them a warm, genuine “Appreciate you, boo,” proving once again why she’s one of the most charismatic, loved, and effortlessly viral players in the league.

This wasn’t a typical interview.
It was a window into All-Star chaos, Plum’s unfiltered personality, and the razor-thin line between confidence and pressure that makes the three-point contest so unpredictable.

Kelsey Plum didn’t come to the contest stressed or scripted.
She came ready to let instinct take over—and to steal the show before the event even began.
