Bueckers' Record Fan Vote Headlines Wings' Two-All-Star Starter Day

McKinney, Texas — No WNBA player received more fan votes this season than Paige Bueckers. On Thursday, the Dallas Wings guard and teammate Jessica Shepard were officially named starters for the 2026 All-Star Game in Chicago.

Bueckers' 1,045,051 fan ballots topped the league, earning her a second straight All-Star start in just her second professional season. Shepard — long regarded as one of the league's most dependable forwards — finally broke through with her first All-Star selection in year six, capping a first-half run that has drawn notice from national analysts.

The Wings' rookie Azzi Fudd added a fourth-place finish among guards in fan voting, a remarkable feat for a first-year player and further evidence that the Wings have built one of the league's most compelling rosters. The fan engagement across the DFW market has been a driving force behind the franchise's elevated profile.

Set for July 25, the All-Star Game will mark the first time the Wings have placed two starters simultaneously since relocating to North Texas. The milestone resonates across Collin County, where basketball interest has surged alongside the team's on-court revival.
