The ten WNBA All-Star starters are selected by a combination of fan voting (50% of the criteria), player voting (25%), and media voting (25%). Allisha Gray is having a career year and was the top guard selection by both the media and her peers, despite finishing seventh in the fan vote, leading to her earning a starting position in the All-Star Game. If Gray continues to play at her current pace, she will be a favorite for the All-WNBA team, if not in the conversation for league MVP.
As of July 14th, Gray is…
· first in the WNBA with 755 minutes played,
· fifth in the league in total points scored,
· third in the league in three-pointers made (behind All-Stars Kelsey Plum and teammate Rhyne Howard),
· sixth in the league in three-point percentage (for players with at least 500 minutes played), and
· third in the league in win shares, according to basketball-reference.
