It\u2019s the fourth consecutive year that a rookie was chosen as an All-Star starter. Bueckers played last season.<\/p>\n<p>A\u2019ja Wilson, Breanna Stewart, Jessica Shepard, Natasha Howard and Gabby Williams were selected for the frontcourt for the game that will be played in Chicago on July 25.
