The WNBA All-Star Game is set after captains Caitlin Clark and Napheesa Collier drafted players for their rosters.

The All-Star draft, which aired on Tuesday, saw Clark take Aliyah Boston with her top overall pick. Meanwhile, Collier went with Breanna Stewart for her first pick.

The Minnesota Lynx forward also took Clark's biggest rivals, Angel Reese and Paige Bueckers, onto her team. Completing Team Collier are Allisha Gray, Nneka Ogwumike, Courtney Williams, Skylar Diggins, Alyssa Thomas, Kelsey Plum and Rhyne Howard.

As for Clark, she also drafted her other Fever teammate, Kelsey Mitchell, alongside A'ja Wilson, Sabrina Ionescu, Satou Sabally, Gabby Williams, Sonia Citron, Kiki Iriafen, Jackie Young and Kayla Thornton.

After the draft, Collier sent a message about her team and shared her honest assessment of the roster she built. The Lynx star was confident in the players she has on her side, highlighting their overall balance.

"I do think my team is very well-rounded. We got the rebounding, we got size, we got shooters," Collier said. "We're going for the dub, baby."

For what it's worth, Napheesa Collier makes a good point. She's currently leading the league in scoring with 24.3 points per game, and three of her All-Star teammates — Breanna Stewart, Allisha Gray and Kelsey Plum — are in the top five in the league in scoring.

Team Collier also boasts the WNBA 2025 season assist leader in Alyssa Thomas (9.8), rebounding leader in Angel Reese (12.9) and 3-point shooting leader Rhyne Howard (2.9).

That being said, Caitlin Clark's team is definitely up for a big challenge in taking down Team Collier.
