The WNBA All-Star game in Las Vegas on Saturday won’t be just about who rules among the star-studded lineups, but also about the rules themselves.
• The shot clock will be reduced four seconds to 20, although it will still reset to 14 seconds after offensive rebounds.• Some substitutions will be permitted hockey style, allowing teams once per quarter to have an offensive player replaced during action. Incoming players will be required to “check in” near midcourt and then tag the player leaving the court to designate the exchange.
The Sparks will be represented by guard Chelsea Gray and forward Nneka Ogwumike, who ended up on different sides when Elena Delle Donne of the Washington Mystics and A’ja Wilson of the Las Vegas Aces drafted teams Tuesday. Gray is a starter for Team Wilson and Ogwumike is a reserve for Team Delle Donne.Gray was also selected to compete in the three-point contest, which was won by Shekinna Stricklen of the Connecticut Sun on Friday. She defeated Kayla McBride of Las Vegas, 23-22, in the final.
