Caitlin Clark, Napheesa Collier lead in WNBA All-Star Game fan voting

Indiana Fever guard Caitlin Clark and Minnesota Lynx forward Napheesa Collier are the lead vote getters in the 2025 WNBA All-Star Game after the first returns of fan voting, the league announced.

The 2025 WNBA All-Star Game will be played on July 19 at Gainbridge Fieldhouse in Indianapolis, Indiana. WNBA players and media will join fans in selecting the All-Star starters, with fans accounting for 50 percent of the vote, and all current players and a media panel will account for 25 percent each. The league’s coaches select the reserves after voting for the starters has been tallied.

The two players with the most fan votes will be the captains and will draft from the remaining pool of eight players as starters and 12 reserves.

Clark, the reigning Rookie of the Year, is averaging 19.9 points, 8.7 assists, and 5.7 rebounds, despite missing five games with a leg injury. Collier, the Defensive Player of the Year, leads the WNBA in scoring with a 24.4 points per game average.
