Former USC All-American forward Kiki Iriafen has been named a reserve for the 2026 AT&T WNBA All-Star Game. The honor marks her second consecutive WNBA All-Star selection after becoming one of the league’s rare rookie All-Stars in 2025.
The No. 4 overall selection in the 2025 WNBA Draft by the Washington Mystics, Iriafen also earned AP All-Rookie Team honors last season while recording a 2025 rookie-best and single-season franchise record of 16 double-doubles, ranking fifth overall in the league.
In 2026, Iriafen has started 17 games while averaging 15.3 points, 9.2 rebounds and 1.6 assists per game, shooting 52.4% from the field. She ranks sixth in the WNBA in rebounds per game, has recorded eight double-doubles and became the fastest player in Mystics history (ninth fastest in WNBA history) to reach 500 career rebounds (58 games).
Iriafen made history as USC’s first top-10 WNBA Draft pick since 2004 and the program’s highest draft selection since 1997. During her lone season with the Trojans in 2024-25, she earned WBCA Coaches’ All-America honors, unanimous All-Big Ten First Team recognition and AP and USBWA Third Team All-America honors. As a senior, the Trojan averaged 18.0 points and 8.4 rebounds per game while recording 12 double-doubles.
