All-Time WNBA All-Star Game Winners
Which side has won the most WNBA All-Star Games? Remember, usually games are split between the Eastern and Western conferences. In recent years, though, the WNBA tried another team breakout. For the years 2018, 2019, 2022 and 2023, the top two All-Stars with the most fan votes were named captain of their team. They were then able to draft their team from the rest of the designated All Stars. That’ll be the format for 2025, too.
In 2021 and 2024, when the Summer Olympics were also happening, the format pitted Team USA, the national women’s basketball team, versus Team WNBA.
