The 2026 WNBA All-Star Game features significant increases in prize money for players. Each of the 24 All-Stars will receive $15,000, a step up from the $2,575 offered previously. The MVP will now earn $20,000, compared to $5,150 last year. Additionally, $70,000 will be donated by the winning team to a charity of their choice, while the runner-up will see $30,000 go to theirs. Teams will support organizations that promote girls in sports, with 'Team Coop' backing Angel Athletics and 'Team Spoon' supporting Girls in the Game. The new financial framework is part of the recently negotiated CBA aimed at enhancing player earnings across the league.
