Women`s College Basketball All-Star Game roster announced

For the first time in almost two decades, there will be a college basketball all-star game to be held before the women`s NCAA Final Four Weekend in Cleveland. It features a roster of the best WNBA-eligible seniors from teams, notably not in the Tournament, playing in front of both fans and scouts.

There will be two different teams following the NBA's previous format, namely Team Lieberman and Team Miller. These squads will be helmed by women`s hoops legends Nancy Lieberman and Cheryl Miller, and each of them will feature 10 players representing as many different conferences (via FanSided).

A few other big names that are notably absent (but could`ve technically played, because they`re no longer in the Tournament) include USC`s Juju Watkins, Stanford`s Cameron Brink or Utah`s Alissa Pili, among many others.

What is the Women`s College Basketball All-Star Game?

Here`s a bit more background about the upcoming Women`s College Basketball All-Star Game, which is, as previously mentioned, being held for the first time in 18 years.

It was last held in 2006, but its history goes back 25 years ago when it was held for the first time (via WomensCollegeAllStar.com). Its main purpose was to showcase the WNBA Draft-eligibile seniors to professional scouts, who could be the only difference between these prospects hearing their names called on draft night or not.

Here`s what the official event page says about the game's overall goal:

"These standouts, who will be exhausting their collegiate eligibility and are on the precipice of hearing their names called in the WNBA Draft, will have one final opportunity to represent their programs and be recognized against the backdrop of the sport’s championship weekend."
