INDIANAPOLIS — A pair of Indiana Fever stars are among the leaders in early fan voting for the WNBA All-Star Game.
Rookie Caitlin Clark is second in fan voting to Las Vegas star A'ja Wilson, the league announced Friday. Wilson, who is averaging 27.9 points and 11.3 rebounds this season, has 217,773 votes. Clark, the defending WNBA Rookie of the Month, is a little more than 1,000 votes behind with 216,427.

Clark's Indiana teammate Aliyah Boston is third, about 40,000 votes behind the leaders. Boston, the defending WNBA Rookie of the Year, was named Eastern Conference Player of the Week earlier this week.
Wilson received the most fan votes last season, but that total was only 95,860.
New York's Breanna Stewart is fourth and Dallas' Arike Ogunbowale is fifth. Chicago's Angel Reese is seventh in the voting and is the only other rookie in the top 10. Fellow first-year players Cameron Brink and Kate Martin were just outside the top 10 in 11th and 12th.
Sabrina Ionescu of New York (sixth), Kelsey Plum of Las Vegas (eighth), Napheesa Collier of Minnesota (ninth) and Dearica Hamby of Los Angeles (10th) round out the first 10.
The All-Star Game will be played on July 20 in Phoenix and will pit WNBA All-Stars against the U.S. Olympic team.
All-Stars are picked by a combination of fan vote (50%), current WNBA players (25%) and media (25%).
After voting closes, the top 10 vote-getters will be named as All-Star Game participants, with any players competing for the U.S. on the Olympic team staying on their team. The remainder of the WNBA team will be chosen by the league's coaches from a pool of the next 36 highest vote-getters, which must include 15 post players and nine guards.
Coaches aren't allowed to vote for their own players.
The final WNBA All-Star Game rosters will be announced on July 2.
