Remember the days as a kid when you and your friends lined up during recess to pick teams? If you were the captain, it was a tough task to balance selecting the best players while keeping everyone happy—because nobody wants to be picked last.
The WNBA had a similar moment on Tuesday night when Kate Linklark and Napesa Collier alternated in drafting the WNBA All-Star Game teams. The big difference? Every player available was a superstar, and the entire process was broadcast live on ESPN.
It was an entertaining event, with Clark and Collier sharing lighthearted banter and discussing some potential trades. They even made a trade involving coaches, making the All-Star game setup on July 19th at Gainbridge Field House in Indianapolis—Clark’s home court—even more interesting.
