NEW YORK – WNBA All-Star Voting 2019 presented by Google, which is now the league’s presenting WNBA All-Star Voting partner, will tip off on Friday, June 14 at 2 p.m. ET and conclude on Tuesday, July 9 at 2 p.m. ET. This is the first season fans will be able to vote by searching on Google. Fans will also be able to vote via the WNBA App and WNBA.com.
AT&T WNBA All-Star 2019 will be played on Saturday, July 27 at the Mandalay Bay Events Center in Las Vegas, home of the WNBA’s Las Vegas Aces. The 16th WNBA All-Star Game will be televised live by ABC at 3:30 p.m. ET.
AT&T WNBA All-Star 2019 will follow last year’s format with the starters and reserves being selected without regard for conference affiliation.
The selection of starters will be conducted through a combination of voting by fans (50 percent of the vote), current WNBA players (25 percent) and a national panel of sportswriters and broadcasters (25 percent). All current WNBA players will be available for selection.
Fans in the U.S. who submit a ballot via WNBA.com may enter into a sweepstakes for a chance to win a trip for two (2) to attend the AT&T WNBA All-Star Game 2019 in Las Vegas.
Players and media will also be able to complete one ballot, featuring four guards and six frontcourt players from across the WNBA. Players may vote for their teammates or themselves.
The 10 All-Star starters, including the two captains, will be revealed on Thursday, July 11. After the announcement of the starters, the WNBA’s head coaches will select the 12 reserves. Coaches will vote for three guards, five frontcourt players and four players at either position regardless of conference. They may not vote for their own players. The reserves will be announced on Monday, July 15.
The captains – the two All-Star starters who receive the most fan votes – will draft their respective rosters by selecting first from the remaining eight players in the pool of starters and then from the pool of 12 reserves. Additional details about the WNBA All-Star Draft will be announced at a later date.
A fan voting update will be shared on Tuesday, July 2.
