Chiney Ogwumike is LIVE from WNBA Live in Chicago to get you ready for 2026 WNBA All-Star Weekend.
Chiney breaks down the Shooting Stars field, makes her picks for the three-point contest, and reacts to the late-invite/ no-invite controversy surrounding Sabrina Ionescu and Kayla McBride. How does a defending champion never receive an official invitation—and is 48 hours enough notice for a player to change her All-Star plans?
Plus, Chiney discusses Kahleah Copper replacing Kelsey Plum, Caitlin Clark becoming an NBA 2K27 cover athlete, and Napheesa Collier’s dominant return to the Minnesota Lynx.
