What happened: The WNBA has revealed its 2026 AT&T WNBA All-Star starters. Aliyah Boston, Caitlin Clark, Paige Bueckers and Natasha Howard were among the group named to the starting lineup, with Kelsey Mitchell and Olivia Miles also earning starting nods.

Why it matters: Starter selection reflects fan, player and media weight and cements the season's marquee draws ahead of the midseason showcase. For a player like Caitlin Clark, now a repeat All-Star starter, the honor underscores her standing as one of the league's central figures.

What to watch: Attention turns to the reserve announcements and the naming of the two team captains, who will draft their squads ahead of All-Star Weekend.
