Aliyah Boston, Caitlin Clark and Kelsey Mitchell were named WNBA All-Star starters together for the first time, giving the Indiana Fever three of the 10 opening spots. The trio was announced Thursday for the 2026 AT&T WNBA All-Star Game, and Indiana joined the Minnesota Lynx and Dallas Wings as the only teams with multiple starters.

The league’s starter vote combined fan ballots, current players and media, with fans accounting for 50 percent of the total and players and media each carrying 25 percent. The rest of the lineup included A’ja Wilson, Breanna Stewart, Gabby Williams, Paige Bueckers, Natasha Howard, Olivia Miles and Jessica Shepard. Miles was the only rookie among the 10 starters.

Boston has averaged a career-high 17.0 points and 8.6 rebounds per game this season, while Clark has posted career bests of 21.2 points and 8.2 assists per game.
