The biggest stars in the WNBA are squaring off in tonight’s WNBA All-Star Game.
The All-Star Weekend got started with last night’s Shooting Stars and 3-Point Contest. TK won the 3-Point Contest, while TK took home the win in the Shooting Stars contest.
Now, 22 All-Stars will face off in the All-Star Game at 8:30 p.m. ET tonight. The league has done aways with team captains, instead WNBA Hall of Famers Cynthia Cooper and Teresa Weatherspoon are the teams’ general managers and they drafted the players.
The top two fan vote-getters were assigned to opposing teams via a coin flip to ensure balanced rosters; Dallas guard Paige Bueckers went to Team Coop, while Indiana Fever guard Caitlin Clark will play for Team Spoon.
