Paige Bueckers will not only play in her first WNBA All-Star Game, but was named a starter, the league announced Monday.

Dallas Wings rookie standout Paige Bueckers did not play in Saturday’s 79-71 win against the Washington Mystics due to a right knee injury, but her absence was no cause for alarm.
