    Allisha Gray is your new WNBA Three-Point Contest Queen! In a historic night for the Atlanta Dream guard, Gray became the first player to win both the Three-Point Contest AND the Skills Challenge.

    What was Grey's reward for her massive win? Well, the Dream guard earned $110,000 from the cash prizes, not including the money given by the WNBA, per Ben Pickman. That's more than half of her annual salary, which comes in at $185,000.

    "Allisha Gray's salary this season is $185,000. For winning the 3-point and skill challenge tonight, she won $115,150 (with $110,000 coming from @aflac). That's 62.2% of her season-long salary," Pickman posted.

    Gray started the night by winning the Skills Challenge, beating Phoenix Mercury guard Sophie Cunningham. In the Three-Point Contest, the Dream guard beat Connecticut Sun forward Jonquel Jones in the final round to complete the achievement.

    That's not the end for Gray's All-Star earnings. She will also earn a $2,575 bonus for being an All-Star. If she earns All-Star MVP honors... that number will go higher.
