The WNBA MVP showed that she’s simply in a class above her competition, leading her team to their first-ever title on Thursday night.
Elena Delle Donne was named this season’s MVP, and he proved voters correct this season, as she was a dominant force in every playoff game she appeared in. The Mystics had the opportunity to host the pivotal Game 5 of the WNBA Finals, and Delle Donne and her teammates showed that the moment was not too big for them, putting together a dominant fourth-quarter effort en route to a 89-78 win.
As for Delle Donne, being the MVP and the team’s clear leader, she’s clearly earned the right to do, well, whatever she wants — like, for example, sleeping with the WNBA trophy, which she did when she went to sleep following Thursday’s win (probably some time Friday morning, given the celebrating).
