Angel Reese among notable omissions from 2026 WNBA All-Star starters
Summary

The 2026 WNBA All-Star starters were announced, with Angel Reese, Rhyne Howard, and Allisha Gray missing out. Despite the Atlanta Dream's strong season and a 12-7 record, none of their players made the starting lineup. The voting results showed Howard, Reese, and Gray narrowly missing the cut due to a weighted voting system. Although the Dream were shut out of the starting lineup, all three players are expected to be selected as reserves for the All-Star Weekend, which takes place on July 25 at Chicago's United Center.
