The WNBA could continue to attract an expanded audience during this year's All-Star festivities.

ESPN will air the Skills Challenge and Three-Point Shootout on Friday night before ABC televises the All-Star Game on Saturday. Disney is devoting considerable attention to the events.

As revealed on Tuesday, "Good Morning America" will broadcast live from Indianapolis on Friday. Robin Roberts will interview All-Stars such as Paige Bueckers, Napheesa Collier, Breanna Stewart, and Allisha Gray and hold segments alongside ESPN analysts Elle Duncan, Andrea Carter, and Chiney Ogwumike.

BIA and G-Eazy will also perform live as part of GMA's Summer Concert Series.

According to Annie Costabile of Front Office Sports, GMA co-hosts George Stephanopoulos and Michael Strahan will stay at the show's New York studio. Roberts is also expected to talk to "several members" of the Indiana Fever, but it's unclear if those guests include Caitlin Clark.

ESPN play-by-play announcer Ryan Ruocco discussed the magnitude of GMA's involvement in WNBA All-Star events.

"We've seen the All-Star game over the last handful of years become this big event in sports pop culture and the landscape of big summer events," Ruocco told Constabile. "When GMA goes somewhere, it's validating and has this verifying effect on wherever they are. It signals 'this is a big deal' because GMA is there."

Friday is certainly shaping up to be a big deal for the WNBA. The league confirmed Tuesday that Clark will participate in the Three-Point Contest in a stacked field featuring reigning champion Gray, 2023 winner Sabrina Ionescu, rookie All-Star Sonia Citron, and 2022 All-Star Game MVP Kelsey Plum.

Gray will also compete in the Skills Challenge against Natasha Cloud, Courtney Williams, Skylar Diggins, and Erica Wheeler.

Ratings for last year's All-Star game skyrocketed from 850,000 to 3.4 million. Last week, Clark drafted a team featuring Ionescu, A'ja Wilson, and Fever teammates Boston and Kelsey Mitchell to oppose a squad captained by Collier.
