This weekend in Chicago, the best of the best are getting together for some hoops. No, I’m not talking about your local 24 Hour Fitness run. It’s time for the WNBA All-Star Game, and it’s more talent on one court than you could imagine. But who is going to start in this one?
WNBA All-Star Game Starters
First, let’s begin with Team Coop. WNBA legend Cynthia Cooper put together this squad, which will be coached by Aces head coach Becky Hammon.
Starters: Dallas Wings G Paige Bueckers, Indiana Fever G Kelsey Mitchell, New York Liberty F Breanna Stewart, Golden State Valkyries F Gabby Williams, Minnesota Lynx F Natasha Howard
Reserves: Washington Mystics G Sonia Citron, Atlanta Dream F Angel Reese, Toronto Tempo G Marina Mabrey, Los Angeles Sparks G Kelsey Plum, Las Vegas Aces G Jackie Young, Seattle Storm C Dominique Malonga
Whew, that’s some talent. Now let’s see what Teresa Weatherspoon, the GM of Team Spoon, put together for head coach Cheryl Reeve.
Starters: Indiana Fever G Caitlin Clark, Minnesota Lynx G Olivia Miles, Dallas Wings F Jessica Shepard, Indiana Fever C Aliyah Boston, Las Vegas Aces C A’ja Wilson
Reserves: Atlanta Dream G Rhyne Howard, Los Angeles Sparks F Nneka Ogwumike, Atlanta Dream G Allisha Gray, New York Liberty F Jonquel Jones, Washington Mystics F Kiki Iriafen, Minnesota Lynx G Courtney Williams
That is some great skill all-around, plus the size. It’s clear that our oddsmakers think size over floor spacing is the move; Team Spoon is a -4.5 favorite on the DraftKings Sportsbook for this All-Star affair.
