WNBA Commissioner Cathy Engelbert announced Saturday that the WNBA All-Star Game would be hosted by the Phoenix Mercury. MORE ⬇️
PHOENIX — The 2024 WNBA All-Star Game is headed to Phoenix, setting up as a home game for Brittney Griner and Diana Taurasi and a sendoff to the U.S. Olympic women's basketball team.
Ishbia credited Phoenix city officials for their efforts to make the event a reality, saying the league realizes people want to come to the Valley because it's a great place and a hub for basketball. The exhibition contest would give the Olympians a marquee event on home soil before heading to Paris. Playing in Phoenix, which also hosted the All-Star Game in 2000 and 2014, would give Griner a chance to play in front of the Mercury fans as well. Griner, who is a nine-time All-Star, said she would love to play in the Paris Olympics if asked.
