Connecticut WNBA All-Star Site Once Again

Filed under: WNBA

Further confirmation that Connecticut is fast becoming the capital state of women's basketball:

For the second straight year, the WNBA will be holding its annual All-Star Game on July 10 at the Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, Conn.

But instead of the usual East vs. West format, the WNBA All-Stars will face off against the U.S. National team, now being coached by University of Connecticut coach Geno Auriemma.

WNBA president Donna Orender called it a "unique twist," but it's actually the second time the U.S. team has participated in the WNBA All-Star Game.

The process for selecting the teams will be largely the same.
