2014 Game

The game was roughly even from the tipoff until halftime, as the East only led by 1 point. The second half was much of the same - a close, back and forth game. The East took its first lead of the second half with 8:30 remaining on 2 free throws by Myisha Hines-Allen and then both teams seesawed back and forth until the finish. The East tied up the game again on 2 free throws of their own by A'ja Wilson. The West came back and Jordin Canada found Brianna Turner open right inside the free throw line for the game winning basket to give the West a 2-point win.[1]
