"The WNBA will experiment with hockey-style substitutions at the 2019 All-Star Game"

SBN:
each team will be able to deploy one live-ball sub per quarter during Saturday evening’s event.

These special substitutions will see one player in a designated “check-in spot” near mid-court wait for a player to tag her onto the floor. Only the team on offense can swap a player in while the ball is live.
