**Caitlin Clark Leads WNBA All-Star Voting, Fever Dominate Early Returns**

Indianapolis, IN – Fan voting for the 2025 WNBA All-Star Game is off to a record-breaking start, fueled by the popularity of rookie sensation Caitlin Clark and her Indiana Fever teammates. The league announced the first round of returns on Friday, with Clark leading all players with an impressive 515,993 votes. Minnesota Lynx star Napheesa Collier followed closely behind with 484,758 votes.

Clark and Collier will be named team captains and draft their teams on July 8, ahead of the All-Star Game in Indianapolis on July 19. The Fever dominated the top 10 in the fan vote. Four of the Fever players were Clark (1st), Aliyah Boston (3rd), Kelsey Mitchell (7th) and Lexie Hull (9th). Clark expressed her gratitude for the fan support while emphasizing the importance of the team’s performance and the excitement it generates across the league.

The first round of fan voting returns in 2023, before Clark’s arrival in the league, featured a 30-player list with a total combined number of votes of 422,173. This year, Clark (515,993) Collier (484,758) and Boston (446,961) all had more than that.

Fan voting, which accounts for 50% of the total vote, runs through June 28. Player and media votes will each contribute 25% to determine the ten All-Star starters. Players and media panelists will each complete one ballot, featuring four guards and six frontcourt players. The coaches will select the 12 reserves, voting for three guards, five frontcourt players, and four players regardless of conference, but cannot vote for their own player.

All-Star Weekend will be hosted by Clark and the Fever this year for the first time in franchise history. The festivities will run from July 18-19, and feature the Skills Challenge and 3-Point Contest on Friday before the All-Star Game on Saturday.
