Everything to know for WNBA All-Star Weekend

Corrections: A previous version of this story listed an incorrect start time for the skills competition. It begins at 9 p.m. ET on Friday. It also listed an incorrect opponent and score in the 2021 gold-medal game. The U.S. beat Japan 90-75.

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

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

Clark and Reese will compete on the same team against the national team Saturday in Phoenix.

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

Has this format been used previously?

Yes. Once before.

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

Team USA later won Olympic gold with a 90-75 victory against Japan in the Tokyo Games.
