Do teams nominate for the award. If so, looks like DC designated Powers as their 6th player.
This is a super-bizarre award, I think, but it is baffling to me that Hamby would win it over Meeseman, let alone in such a landslide.

I’m guessing Messeman missed to many games?
I voted Hamby so I’m not surprised but I didn’t think she’d be damn near unanimous._________________

I keep reading here what a dirty player and flopper Nneka is. Apparently that's not the case.

A flopper yes but not a dirty player

Temeka Johnson 2005 Mystics (behind Janel McCarville, Tan White, Sandora Irvin, Kendra Wecker, Sancho Lyttle)
Tracy Reid won in 1998 with Charlotte as a #7 pick (behind Margo Dydek, Ticha Pinacheiro, Muriel Page, Korie Hlede, Alison Feaster, Cindy Blodgett).

This is the third time neither of the top two picks in the draft got any ROY votes, following 2000 and 2017.
It's the first time all the ROY votes went to players drafted outside the top four.

So that fifth All-Rookie Team spot goes to Brianna Turner. Congrats to her and she needs to thank Lyttle & Smith for getting injured as she finally saw significant minutes midway through the season.

She should thank Durr for getting hurt and opening up a spot on the team

| This is the first time since Rookie of the Month started in 2010 that the ROY did not win the most or tie for winning the most ROM awards for that year

I'm very surprised. I think Collier probably should have won, but this is a major outlier in the history of an award that has mostly only rewarded scoring.

It’s about time the janitor’s opinion got kicked to the curb.

| Congrats to Collier, well deserved. Despite Arike not getting ROY, I’m sure Muffet is still pleased to have more than half of the all rookie team!

Not to mention, had she not gotten injured Shepard seemed like she had a legit shot at it as well.

I'm trying to figure out who wouldn't have had Reeve in at least their top 3 for GM of the year. Sure, there's reasonable options to go with as far as order for your top three...but not even in it?
Drafted ROY at 6, traded end-of-bencher for SIms who became an All-Star, got Dantas by clever usage of guarentees, got Lexie Brown for their second second-round pick, and added Talbot for a second-rounder as well. You could even add in getting Shepard in the second round based on her early play but her injury makes that a small sample size.
Anyway, it was a hell of an impressive off-season, and as far as GM moves go, one I'd stack up against any other GM in the league. So...not even top 3 for three teams?
I know this probably sounds like a silly thing to worry about, but there is an underlying thought bouncing around in my head that is what really lead to this...do some WNBA GMs really not pay that close of attention to their league and all its happenings? Who all the players are, where they are going, what teams are making what moves? If they don't, it would explain some things...
