WNBA Star Responds After Being Ranked Above Caitlin Clark in All-Star Player Voting originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The 2025 WNBA All-Star Game is coming up on July 19, and Indiana Fever star Caitlin Clark has been named one of the two captains alongside Minnesota Lynx forward Napheesa Collier.

Despite dominating the fan vote as the WNBA's leading all-star vote-getter by a record-setting margin, Fever star Caitlin Clark ranked as the ninth-best guard by players. Fellow players rated Clark as the second-best guard on her own team behind Kelsey Mitchell.

Many notable voices spoke out against the WNBA for the player voting results, perhaps none more passionately than ESPN's legendary college basketball analyst Dick Vitale.
