Maya Moore up for BET award

Former UConn star Maya Moore is one of five finalists for the Sportswoman of the Year at the 2011 BET Awards.

Moore is in some select company as the other nominees are Tamika Catchings of the Indiana Fever, tennis stars Serena and Venus Williams and Candice Dupree of the Phoenix Mercury.

The winner will be announced at the BET Awards on June 26 at the Shrine Auditorium in Los Angeles. It's highly unlikely that Catchings and Moore would be at the ceremony with Catchings' Indiana Fever will meet Moore and the Minnesota Lynx play each other that night in Minnesota.

FORMER CHESHIRE ACADEMY STAR ON NBA TV TOMORROW
The exhibition game between the Atlanta Dream and the British national team will be televised live on NBA TV tomorrow beginning at noon. Former Cheshire Academy star Johannah Leedham, a third-round pick of the Connecticut Sun in 2010, is a member of the Great Britain squad.
