Minnesota Lynx guard Kayla McBride has been named to the 2025 WNBA All-Star Game as a replacement player for Atlanta Dream guard Rhyne Howard, the league announced Tuesday. McBride, who was selected by WNBA commissioner Cathy Engelbert, will take Howard's spot on Team Collier, led by her Lynx teammate, Napheesa Collier.

Minnesota Lynx star Kayla McBride was originally left off the WNBA All-Star Game roster. She'll get her shot though, replacing injured Rhyne Howard.

So when it comes to replacing Howard, Engelbert has to make the right choice here and select Sykes. Slim deserves an All-Star spot. That it has to come at the expense of Howard is a real bummer, but the WNBA commissioner has to rectify the situation and give Sykes the spot that she deserves.

The WNBA will need to fill Howard's spot on Team Collier with an injury replacement chosen by commissioner Cathy Englebert. Napheesa Collier selected Howard to her squad in last week's draft, pitting her against Caitlin Clark and the other half of the All-Star participants.

Rhyne Howard was the number one pick and is one of the best prospects in the league, but what about her game sets her up to be such an impactful player? Mark Schindler breaks it down.
