I guess since Wimbledon is on ESPN/ESPN2, we have to tune into the WatchESPN app to watch Sportscenter?

Seattle’s Bird, Five Former MVPs Selected to Start Verizon WNBA All-Star 2017
Quote: |
Moore was the overall leading vote-getter among fans (32,866). She was followed by Delle Donne (31,414), Parker (29,133), Fowles (24,904) and Bird (24,841).
Fan voting served as the tiebreaker for players in a position group with the same score. Parker (29,133 fan votes) won the tiebreaker with Sparks teammate Nneka Ogwumike (21,975) for the third starting spot among West frontcourt players
Fans cast 604,680 votes, more than double the number in 2015 (280,670).
Minnesota’s Cheryl Reeve will serve as the West head coach and New York’s Bill Laimbeer will guide the East after the Lynx and Liberty finished with the best regular-season records in their respective conferences in 2016.

Yeah they aren't even the best players on their respective teams.
In all honestly though, this could have been a lot worse. 7 of the 10 picks were good IMO.
