On March 20, the WNBA announced that 2024 would feature a matchup between the WNBA All-Stars who make up the US Women's National Team versus the remaining WNBA All-Stars. Fans, WNBA players, head coaches, sports writers, and broadcasters would all be able to vote for All Stars. All groups could fill out a ballot of four guards and six front court players. Players and coaches could not vote for members of their own team. Voting began on Thursday, June 13 at 2 p.m. ET and concluded on Saturday, June 29 at 11:59 p.m. ET.[1]
The voting was weighted as follows:
Voting group
Vote weight
Fans
50%
WNBA players
25%
Sports media
25%
Players were not allowed to vote for their own teammates. The top 10 players receiving votes based on this weighting would be selected to the All-Star Game. Any top 10 vote-getter who has not already been named to the USA Women’s National Team 5-on-5 roster will automatically be assigned to Team WNBA. The names of the next 36 highest vote-getters, consisting of at least nine backcourt and 15 frontcourt players, will then be provided to the 12 WNBA head coaches, who will vote to fill the remaining spots for the 12-player Team WNBA roster. Coaches will not be able to vote for their own players.
The following tables list the 36 next-highest vote-getters provided to the 12 WNBA head coaches to fill the remaining eight spots for the 12-player Team WNBA roster.[3]
