The WNBA All-Star Game showcases Team Caitlin Clark versus Team Napheesa Collier in Indianapolis. Representing the Washington Mystics are rookies Sonia Citron and Kiki Iriafen, alongside Brittney Sykes. The game includes notable rules changes, such as the return of the AT&T 4-Point Shot for long-distance attempts, live play substitutions during the game, a shortened 20-second shot clock, and a unique approach to free throws where maximum points are awarded instead of free throws, except in the last two minutes or overtime. The game is broadcast on ABC.
The AT&T 4-Point Shot is back for 2025, allowing for 28-foot shots from four circles on the court to count for four points. Expect Caitlin Clark and Sabrina Ionescu to attempt shots from extreme range.
Live Play Substitutions allow teams to replace players on the fly without a stoppage, with restrictions: only the offense can change players and only one can enter or exit per possession.
A 20-second shot clock will be utilized, down from the typical 24 seconds, speeding up the pace of play during the All-Star Game.
There will be no free throws, except in the final two minutes of the game or overtime. Instead, players are awarded the maximum possible points for fouls.
