This story is part of a series from SB Nation profiling the 2025 WNBA All-Star teams. Today, let’s get to know Sonia Citron. Sonia Citron did not expect to be named a WNBA All-Star in her rookie season.

Dallas Wings star Paige Bueckers will be one of the headliners for the WNBA All-Star Game in Indianapolis on Saturday. But the former UConn All-American isn’t the only rookie set to showcase her skills in front of millions of fans in person and at home.

First, the Huskies took in a Los Angeles Sparks' WNBA game against the Washington Mystics at Crypto.com Arena. UConn players even got to show off their throwing arms when they tossed T-shirts into the stands during a break in the action.

The WNBA has six all-stars from the past three draft classes, so Caitlin Clark isn’t the only reason the talk around the league is all about the kids.

Dearica Hamby scores 26 points, Rickea Jackson adds 22 and Kelsey Plum scores 20 as the Sparks (8-14) take control in the second quarter and roll to a 99-80 win.

With All-Star week upon us, here are 10 (or so) players that have been some of my favorites to watch so far this season.

Sparks star Kelsey Plum spoke about the team’s recent momentum and how that should carry over after WNBA All-Star Weekend.

Each year, Engelbert usually calls WNBA players to tell them they were named an All-Star. That wasn't the case for Citron, who found out she made the cut through a pretty wild sequence of events.
