Former UConn stars Moore, Taurasi headline All-WNBA team
Former UConn stars Maya Moore and Diana Taurasi were the top two vote-getters on the All-WNBA team which was announced earlier today.
Moore, the league MVP, was a unanimous first-team pick receiving all 38 votes as she set WNBA records with 12 30-point games and four straight games with at least 30 points for the Minnesota Lynx.
Taurasi finished with the second most votes and was named to the first team for a record ninth time during her 11 seasons with the Phoenix Mercury. She was joined on the first team by Mercury teammate Brittney Griner, Candace Parker of the Los Angeles Sparks and Tulsa guard Skylar Diggins, the only selection not to be a former No. 1 overall pick.
Former UConn star Tina Charles of the New York Liberty was named to the second team.
