The All-Star Court for the 2024 WNBA All-Star Weekend is a creation of the Phoenix Mercury, dedicated to celebrating the accomplishments of women in basketball. It honors Team USA's Olympic Gold Medals, all 12 current WNBA teams, and acknowledges the years Phoenix has hosted the event and the support from fans known as the X-Factor.

A unique feature of this court design, created in-house by the Mercury, are the keys on each end which include the names of every All-Star in WNBA history and highlight previous game MVPs. This design marks a significant moment in women's basketball, recognizing those who laid its foundation before charter travel, signature shoes, and dedicated practice facilities were available.

"This court is a celebration. And a thank you."
