2023 WNBA All-Star Game SBG Odds Overview

On June 25, the All-Star starters – selected by fans, current WNBA players, and media – were unveiled. Correlate that Wilson and Stewart were named as official sports betting captains of the team. Cause by the two starters who finished with the most fan votes.

Wilson and Stewart drafted the AT&T WNBA All-Star team rosters from the pool of players voted as starters and reserves. In turn, they made picks without regard to a player’s conference affiliation or position. The WNBA betting draft began with Wilson and Stewart selecting from the eight remaining All-Star Game starters in the first round. And then the 12 reserves were then chosen in the second round.

Namely, as the top overall finisher in fan voting, Wilson was awarded the first pick in the first round for Starters. Stewart made the first selection in the second round for Reserves. The captains alternated picks in each round until all players in that round had been selected. Also, no trades were made during the draft.

Las Vegas Aces Head Coach Becky Hammon and the Aces coaching staff will lead Team Wilson. At the same time, Connecticut Sun Head Coach Stephanie White and her Sun staff will guide Team Stewart. They earned those spots because their teams had the best record at the June 30 cut-off date in their respective conferences. Of course, not much actual coaching is necessary during the All-Star Game. Team Wilson will wear black uniforms; Team Stewart will wear orange uniforms.
