The 2023 WNBA All-Star Game has a distinct super-team flavor, apropos for a season marked by the emergence of two super-teams on each end of the country. The first-place Las Vegas Aces are hosting the annual event and have four players on captain A'ja Wilson's Team Wilson. On the other side, Breanna Stewart's Team Stewart has two of her New York Liberty teammates.
The game will feature three special rules — the 4-point shot, 20-second shot clock and no free throw shots. There will be on 4-point shot circle at each end of the court beyond the 3-point arc and 28 feet from the rim. The shot clock will be shortened from 24 seconds to 20. In the instance of a foul with free throws awarded, the maximum amount of points will automatically be awarded and no free throws will be attempted. In the last two minutes of the fourth quarter and during any overtime periods, players will actually attempt free throws.
