WNBA regular season has come to a close, and it's a quick turnaround to the playoffs, which get underway Sunday. Before that happens, it's time to look back at another exciting summer of basketball and make picks for every major award,

DiJonai Carrington (Connecticut Sun), Dearica Hamby (Los Angeles Sparks), and Alanna Smith (Minnesota Lynx) each reflected on their growth and development as leading candidates for the Most Improved Player award.

The most notable of these is the WNBA MVP. Of course, anybody who has been watching or keeping up with the WNBA this season knows that A'ja Wilson is a massive favorite to win her third MVP award, and might even earn the first unanimous selection since 1997.
