Lynx guard Courtney Williams has been voted a reserve for the WNBA All-Star Game by WNBA head coaches. This will be the first time Williams has been selected as an All-Star as a member of the Lynx, and the second time in her career.
The All-Star Game is scheduled for July 19 at Gainbridge Fieldhouse in Indianapolis and will be televised by ABC.
Williams joins Lynx teammate Napheesa Collier as a 2025 All-Star and becomes the 14th player in franchise history to play in an All-Star Game. All-Star Captains Collier and Indianapolis guard Caitlin Clark will draft their rosters for the game, with results released July 8.
Lynx coach Cheryl Reeve will coach Team Clark.
Playing her 10th WNBA season, Williams is averaging 12.9 points and a team-high 5.9 assists in 18 games. She was an all-star while playing for Atlanta in 2021.
The other reserves chosen by coaches are: Golden State’s Kayla Thornton, Seattle’s Gabby Williams and Skylar Diggins, Washington’s Kiki Iriafen and Sonia Citron, Phoenix’s Alyssa Thomas, Atlanta’s Rhyne Howard, Indiana’s Kelsey Mitchell, Los Angeles’ Kelsey Plum, Las Vegas’ Jackie Young and Chicago’s Angel Reese.
Briefly
Alanna Smith scored five points and grabbed five rebounds in Saturday’s victory over Golden State before leaving with a knee injury. It’s unclear whether she will be available for today’s 6 p.m. tip against the Chicago Sky at Target Center.
