The WNBA will need to fill Howard's spot on Team Collier with an injury replacement chosen by commissioner Cathy Englebert. Napheesa Collier selected Howard to her squad in last week's draft, pitting her against Caitlin Clark and the other half of the All-Star participants.

Rhyne Howard, the Dream’s explosive guard and recent All-Star selection, suffered a left knee injury during Atlanta’s July 11 game. After a medical evaluation, the team confirmed she’ll be sidelined for the remainder of July.
