## Caption

The WNBA’s growth was impossible to miss in Chicago. 

Four years after hosting All-Star festivities in a much smaller setting, the league drew a record crowd of 19,783 fans to the United Center.

That number topped the NBA's announced attendance of 15,973 at its All-Star game earlier this February.

The W also welcomed thousands to WNBA Live and delivered a weekend filled with player appearances, fan experiences and major sponsor activations. 

The result was a celebration of the league’s rising popularity and the community that continues to fuel its success.
