2025

The Hoopsfix All-Star Classic returned for its eleventh year in 2025, in front of 1700 people at Crystal Palace National Sports Centre.

The arena was visually stunning while once again having an Under-19 Men and Under-19 Women’s game, along with dunk contest and 3-point shootout.

The entire day was live streamed online to an audience of tens of thousands.

3-Point Shootout

Nojus Zajankauskas was crowned the 3-Point Shootout champion.

Ethan Round – who scored 15 points in the first round – put up a good fight in the final, but it was London Stars’ Zajankauskas who proved to be too good as he posted a score of 11 to win the shootout.

Zajankauskas needed a tiebreaker after the first round to advance to the final, which he won over Monife Abidekun after scoring six points.

Both Zajankauskas and Abidekun had initially put up a score of 12 in their first go around.

Hannah Gray, Megan Verbeeten and Melchi Egbeyemi were the other participants in this year’s contest.

Dunk Contest

Amarlie Wilkinson showed out for the Crystal Palace crowd to claim the Bouncewear Dunk Contest title at 2025 Hoopsfix All Star Classic.

The Barking Abbey guard finished with a final round score of 72 with a spectacular final dunk sealing the crown over Obinna Ekufu.

Needing 38 to win with his second dunk in the final round, Wilkinson secured the title with a between the legs jam to receive a score of 39 from the judges.

Wilkinson and Ekufu set up the final clash after securing a top-two spot in the first round, as Ed Onyia missed out.

Under-19 Women’s Game

A fantastic performance from Irene Oboavwoduo led Team White to a dominant 81-61 win over Team Black in the Under-19 Women’s Game at the 2025 Hoopsfix All-Star Classic.

Oboavwoduo finished with 21 points on 8-of-11 shooting to go with five rebounds on the way to earning MVP honours.

Megan Verbeeten top scored for Team Black in defeat with 11 points.

Under-19 Men’s Game

Ed Onyia played a pivotal role in Team Black’s huge comeback enroute to being named MVP in the Under-19 Men’s game.

The Leicester Riders forward top scored with 14 points in the win for Billy Beddow-Patel’s side as they rallied from a 20-point deficit in the first half to take a 74-70 victory.

Wilkinson ultimately had a solid showing for Team White after winning the Bouncewear Dunk Contest earlier, scoring 17 points for the game, while Lewis Obiorah and 3-Point Shootout champion Nojus Zajankauskas both chipped in with 10 points apiece.
