&nbsp;
NEW YORK, June 17, 2026 – Four-time Kia WNBA MVP A’ja Wilson of the Las Vegas Aces and 2025 Kia WNBA Rookie of the Year Paige Bueckers of the Dallas Wings lead the voting after the first fan returns in WNBA All-Star Voting 2026 presented by Ally.
The 2026 AT&amp;T WNBA All-Star Game will be played in Chicago at United Center on Saturday, July 25, and broadcast on ABC (8:30 p.m. ET).
As a WNBA Changemaker partner, Ally Financial is committed to working alongside the WNBA to enhance opportunities for fans to engage with the league and its stars. Enabling fans to help shape the All-Star rosters is a fitting activation.
AT&amp;T WNBA All-Star 2026 will feature the league’s biggest and brightest stars selected from across the WNBA without regard to conference affiliation. WNBA players and media will join fans in selecting the All-Star starters. Fans will account for 50 percent of the vote, while all current players and a media panel will account for 25 percent each. Players and media panelists will be able to complete one ballot, featuring four guards and six frontcourt players.
Wilson, a seven-time All-Star, leads all players with 308,249 votes. Bueckers, an All-Star starter last season as a rookie, is second with 298,027 votes. Wilson is averaging a league-leading 25.6 ppg and 2.2 bpg; she also ranks fifth in rebounding (9.0 rpg). Bueckers ranks eighth in scoring (19.0 ppg) and assists (5.8 apg).
Wilson and Bueckers are followed in the fan voting by three-time All-Star Aliyah Boston of the Indiana Fever (282,186), who ranks 14th in scoring (17.1 ppg) and ninth in rebounding (8.6 rpg); two-time Kia WNBA MVP and seven-time All-Star Breanna Stewart of the New York Liberty (255,879), the league’ sixth-leading scorer this season (19.9 ppg); and 2024 Kia WNBA Rookie of the Year and two-time All-Star Caitlin Clark of Indiana (253,602), who ranks fourth in scoring in 2026 (20.4 ppg).
Rounding out the top 10 vote-getters are the league’s 2026 triple-doubles leader Jessica Shepard of Dallas (211,598), whose 13.7 ppg and 11.6 rpg are career-highs; two-time All-Star and the league’s leading rebounder this season (12.3 rpg) Angel Reese of the Atlanta Dream (204,643); 2025 All-Star Gabby Williams of the Golden State Valkyries (195,641), whose 15.7 ppg this season are a career-high; 2026 No. 2 overall draft pick and current 11th-ranked scorer (18.1 ppg) Olivia Miles of the Minnesota Lynx (179,283); and three-time All-Star Kelsey Mitchell of Indiana (170,125), who ranks third in scoring this season (20.8 ppg).
After all votes are tallied, players will be ranked by position (guard and frontcourt) within each of the three voting groups – fan votes, player votes and media votes. Each player’s score will be calculated by averaging their weighted rank from the fan votes, the player votes and the media votes. The four guards and six frontcourt players with the best score will be named as starters for AT&amp;T WNBA All-Star 2026. Fan voting will serve as the tiebreaker for players in a position group with the same score.
Once the starters have been determined, the league’s head coaches will select the 12 reserves. The 15 head coaches will vote for three guards, five frontcourt players and four players at either position regardless of conference. Coaches may not vote for players on their own team.
The head coaches for the 2026 AT&amp;T WNBA All-Star Game will be the head coaches of the two teams with the best records following games on Friday, July 10, regardless of conference.
The announcement dates for both the starters and reserves, as well as additional information on the construction of the All-Star rosters will be shared at a later date.
