A’ja Wilson is first in the early fan returns for the 2026 WNBA All-Star Game with 308,249 votes, while Caitlin Clark sits fifth with 253,602. Clark’s current total is notably lower than her first 2025 return when she led the league with 513,993 votes.
For the second straight All-Star spotlight, Caitlin Clark is right in the middle of the fan fight to get to the biggest stage.
The first returns from the fan voting for the 2026 WNBA All-Star Game were revealed on Wednesday afternoon, and Clark is firmly among the early top vote-getters. The Indiana Fever guard is fifth in the opening wave with 253,602 votes.
A’ja Wilson is leading the pack early. The Las Vegas Aces forward has 308,249 votes. Dallas Wings guard Paige Bueckers follows in second place with 298,027 votes. Indiana Fever center Aliyah Boston is third with 282. 186 votes. putting two players from the same franchise inside the top three early. New York Liberty forward Breanna Stewart sits fourth with 255,879 votes.
Clark’s vote total is strong enough to keep her in the conversation at the very front of the league’s fan voting. But it also marks a different moment than the one she owned during last year’s returns. In the 2025 voting, Clark led all WNBA players with 513,993 votes. She was ultimately named captain for the All-Star Game alongside Napheesa Collier, though she did not play due to injury.
Beyond the top five. the early fan totals show other familiar names pressing for a spot in the game: Jessica Shepard is sixth with 211. 598 votes for the Dallas Wings. Angel Reese is seventh at 204. 643 votes for the Atlanta Dream. Gabby Williams is eighth with 195. 641 votes for the Golden State Valkyries. Olivia Miles is ninth with 179. 283 votes for the Minnesota Lynx. and Kelsey Mitchell rounds out the top 10 with 170. 125 votes for the Indiana Fever.
The Fever’s All-Star push is being carried not just by star power. but by how central Clark has remained—and how much Aliyah Boston’s presence has grown alongside her. Clark’s 2026 season numbers are coming in steady: she is averaging 20.4 points per game. 8.3 assists per game. 40.2% from the field. and 32.4% from three-point range.
Boston has become an even bigger piece of Indiana’s identity. She is averaging 17.1 points, 8.6 rebounds, 2.8 assists, 1.2 steals, and 1.2 blocks, and the early run of fans backing her has been clear. She has earned a considerable following in the WNBA alongside Clark.
The standings around the Fever also reflect a team still building momentum. With a 9-5 record, Indiana sits third in the East behind the Atlanta Dream and New York Liberty, and seventh overall in the early WNBA playoff race at WNBA.
In the immediate All-Star story, the votes are still changing—but right now, the message from fans is unmistakable. Wilson is pacing the early leaderboard. Bueckers is close behind. Boston is emerging as a major force in Indiana’s orbit. and Clark—top five again—has already grabbed a front-row seat in the voting race.
