No Mystics players or coaches win AP WNBA Awards

The Associated Press announced its WNBA awards, with no players or coaches from the Washington Mystics receiving honors. Las Vegas Aces standout A'ja Wilson was named AP Player of the Year, while Cheryl Reeve of the Minnesota Lynx earned Coach of the Year honors.

Writer Albert Lee expressed surprise at the omission of Mystics figures, noting head coach Sydney Johnson led the team to a 28-16 record with the league's youngest roster. Lee also argued players Shakira Austin, Kiki Iriafen, or Sonia Citron had cases for All-AP Second Team recognition ahead of the official league awards.
