GW Hoops / Be on the Lookout

With the WNBA season winding to a conclusion, awards will soon follow and Jonquel Jones is a prime candidate for MVP. She has had a terrific season, leading the league in rebounds, 4th in scoring, and 18 double doubles this year. Wouldn't it be great for GW if (when this happens). The Sun finished with the best record in the W, so I believe she'll get it. Regardless, congratulations to JJ on a GREAT year.

One of most talented women players of all time.

Sky was always the limit, what a player.

JJ just named AP Player of the Year, by unanimous vote. Actual announcement of WNBA MVP has not been made, but this looks like a good sign.

Looks like JJ made the WNBA All-Defensive 1st Team.

What a year for her.
