Schedule, rosters, events and more to know

This year’s WNBA All-Star game is unlike most.

Not only because this will be a matchup between the All-Stars and the U.S. Women’s National Team that will represent the country in the upcoming 2024 Paris Olympic — which hasn’t happened since the 2021 Tokyo Olympics — but also because this will also be the first All-Star game where fans get to see young superstars Caitlin Clark and Angel Reese.

Although the pair have been labeled rivals, Clark and Reese will compete alongside one another against the national team in Phoenix this Saturday. With the WNBA seeing unprecedented popularity this year, the All-Star game will have far more eyes on it than it has in years past.

Here’s everything to know about this year’s WNBA All-Star festivities.

Has this format ever happened before?

Yes. Once before.

In 2021, ahead of the Tokyo Olympics, the WNBA All-Star Team faced off against the U.S. Women’s National Team, with the WNBA All-Stars winning 93-85. Arike Ogunbowale of Dallas was named MVP of the game after leading all players with 26 points on 10-of-18 shooting.

The U.S. Women’s National Team would end up winning gold with a 74-59 victory over Puerto Rico in the finals.
