WNBA All-Star roster 2024: Full list of players selected, from Caitlin Clark to Angel Reese

The most anticipated season in WNBA history will soon give way to perhaps the most anticipated All-Star Game in WNBA history. It just won't be played the traditional way.

Because this is an Olympic year, the WNBA All-Stars will instead face off with Team USA's 5-on-5 Olympic women's basketball roster before they head off to Paris.

What if a player who would ordinarily be a WNBA All-Star is on Team USA? There are quite a few of those cases, including Aces star A'ja Wilson. Those players were simply removed from consideration after the voting period, and the top vote-getters not assigned to Team USA were placed on the WNBA All-Star roster.

Here's a first look at the WNBA All-Star roster and the Olympic roster it will be facing.

The impact of this year's rookie class was evident in All-Star voting, as two rookies (Caitlin Clark and Angel Reese) were selected. Clark and Reese are locked in an entertaining Rookie of the Year battle through the first half of the season.
