The WNBA All-Star team will work a differently in 2024.
Twelve players will be selected for the team, regardless of conference, and that group will play the U.S. Olympic team at 8:30 p.m. ET on July 20 in Phoenix as it tunes up for 2024 Paris Games.
How WNBA All-Star Game voting works
Fan voting counts 50% toward a player’s status, while WNBA player and WNBA media votes count 25% each. Fan voting totals will break any potential ties.
Fans can vote for six frontcourt players and four backcourt players through Saturday, June 29. For fans who want their votes to count more, Thursday, June 27, is a “2-for-1” vote day.
The top 10 eligible vote-getters are considered WNBA All-Stars, but some of those will likely be on the Olympic squad. After that, the next 36 highest vote-getters (at least 9 guards and 15 frontcourt players) will be put into a pool, and WNBA coaches will vote for the remaining WNBA All-Stars.
Coaches cannot vote for their own players.
