Which Team Has the Most Players Featuring in the 2024 WNBA All-Star Game?

As of now, we already know the WNBA All-Star roster, all set to face off against Team USA at Footprint Center on July 20. This upcoming matchup will be the second time Team USA will be locking horns against Team WNBA. The last time the two tipped off was in 2021 before the Tokyo Olympics when the WNBA won 93-85.

This year, there are high chances that the WNBA team might take a win home. As the selection for the All-Star roster came out, all eyes were on Fever rookie Caitlin Clark, who topped the charts with an impressive 700,735 votes. This marks a significant increase, as Clark garnered 600,000 more votes compared to last year’s first spot held by A’ja Wilson. Since Clark is a major reason behind the WNBA’s increased growth, her name on the list was quite expected. But she isn’t the only person rocking the charts.

A deep dive into All-Star roster

Interestingly, it’s Team Indiana Fever that stands out. As of now, the team features the most players from a single team on the WNBA team’s roster. Clark was followed by her teammate Aliyah Boston, who stood second on the list with 618,680 votes. While Clark was the Rookie of the Month for May, Boston boasts of being the eighth rookie put on the All-Star roster.

But they aren’t the only players on the list. The 2023 All-Star, Kelsey Mitchell, is the third person from Indiana Fever. According to the WNBA, Aliyah Boston, Caitlin Clark, Sabrina Ionescu, Kahleah Copper, Jackie Young, Arike Ogunbowale, Breanna Stewart, A’ja Wilson, Napheesa Collier, and Dearica Hamby were among the top-10 vote-getters.

This means Kelsey Mitchell wasn’t part of the All-Star roster from the beginning. Let’s look at how she found her name on the roster then.

Kelsey Mitchell’s selection

This means, as is often the case, fans, players, and media voting didn’t help her. But as the final eight spots were selected from the 36 highest vote-getters by the league’s coaches, Mitchell got her 2024 All-Star spot.

The former Ohio State Buckeye alum is Fever’s leading scorer in this regular season so far. As of now, she averages 16.3 points with 2 rebounds per game. To help her, Clark will come up with the second league-wide 56 score in 3-point baskets. Additionally, she also ranks third in average assists per game. Boston, on the other hand, averages 13.3 points with a grip of 8.4 rebounds per game.

But they aren’t the only top contenders on the team. Apart from the three mentioned, the All-Star list boasts DeWanna Bonner, Allisha Gray, Angel Reese, Arike Ogunbowale, Kayla McBride, Nneka Ogwumike, Brianna Jones, and Dearica Hamby.

As Indiana Fever has emerged with the highest number of hoopers on the WNBA All-Star list, let’s look at the franchise that dominates the Team USA roster.

A look at Team USA

The Las Vegas Aces have dominated the Team USA roster with four players on the roster. While A’ja Wilson will lead the team, she’ll be supported by teammates Kelsey Plum, Jackie Young, and Chelsea Gray. Wilson is the leading scorer in the WNBA with an impressive average of 27 points per game, whereas Plum is a leader in three-point shooting with an average of three shots per game.

Besides them, the Aces’ best passer, Jackie Young, and guard Gray are also on the team. While Young averages 18.7 points and 5.7 assists per game, Gray dominates with 7.8 points and 3.2 rebounds per game. However, there are other important players on the roster to help them too.

Apart from the four, Sabrina Ionescu, Napheesa Collier, Brittney Griner, Alyssa Thomas, Breanna Stewart, Kahleah Copper, Jewell Loyd, and Diana Taurasi were also already on the Team USA’s roster. With both the rosters looking strong the question remains: which team will win? Comment below.
