Memphis All-Star Game was action packed and exciting. The game was an all exciting extravaganza.

Erica Burgess and Adrienne Pratcher would be all-star icons, but Pratcher would steal the show early with a shooting exhibition dropping the first five 3 pointers. The Texas A & M signee would finish the game with 37 points for the North Team. Burgess of the South Team would gather some ooohs and aaahs from the crowd. Lawanda Clayborn would lead the South with 25 points with her fast pace style and high jumping ability. She would walk away this year as the 2008-2009 All-Star MVP. Clayborn just a few weeks ago gave a verbal to Arkansas State and will play with Central's stand out Jasmine Taylor. Taylor also had an outstanding game in the All-Star Classic. Taylor would go ahead and win the All-Star 3 Point Shoot-Out.

The Game would be an exciting event for the fans as the North Team would lead the whole game. The South would go on a 2 minute rally as Monique Ingram of BTW would hit a clutch 3 pointer to tie the game with 44 Seconds remaining in the contest. The South would then put the ball in Burgess hand, a Southeast Louisiana commit and she would seal the game with 2 free throws with 2.5 seconds remaining on the clock. The south would win 76-74.
