That said, Washington Mystics center Shakira Austin was the runner up with 25 votes. She averaged a career high 17 points, 9.5 rebounds and 2.6 assists per game. Austin did not make the All-Star team this season, but was the Mystics’ leading scorer in points per game.
While not seeing Austin win a league wide honor stings a little, I am still very happy with how this season has gone for the Mystics. Hopefully Austin gets an All-Star honor in 2027.
