What happened
Jones made eight of her 17 field-goal attempts and connected on four shots from 3-point range. She paired that scoring efficiency with 13 rebounds and eight assists, contributing across every major phase of the game.
Team Spoon scored 129 points and won by seven, with Jones providing the defining individual performance. The 22-13-8 line gave her the statistical foundation for the event’s top honor and added another MVP award to her career résumé.
Why it matters
The award made Jonquel Jones the first WNBA player to capture league, Commissioner’s Cup, Finals and All-Star MVP honors. Those four awards arrived across four separate stages of her career: 2021, 2023, 2024 and 2026.
The sequence highlights the range of settings in which Jones has been recognized. Her MVP honors now span a full league campaign, the Commissioner’s Cup, the Finals and the All-Star showcase.
The 2026 honor completed the sweep five years after the first award in 2021. No other WNBA player had assembled that specific collection of MVP trophies.
By the numbers
Jones shot 47.1% from the field, converting eight times on 17 attempts. Half of those eight made field goals came from beyond the arc, where she finished with four 3-pointers.
Her 13 rebounds gave her a double-double alongside 22 points. Eight assists brought her within two of a triple-double and rounded out the performance that separated her in the 129-122 result.
The final line reflected both volume and versatility. Jones scored efficiently, controlled the glass and created opportunities for teammates while helping Team Spoon reach 129 points.
What to watch next
Jones now returns to regular-season play carrying the 2026 WNBA All-Star MVP award. The honor came in her sixth All-Star selection and added the final piece to her four-stage MVP collection.
Her next chapter begins with the distinction already secured: league MVP in 2021, Commissioner’s Cup MVP in 2023, Finals MVP in 2024 and All-Star MVP in 2026. The All-Star performance placed another milestone on a résumé defined by impact across multiple competitions.
