CANDACE PARKER IS WNBA MVP & ROY!

She's young but she routinely and thoroughly outplays stars 5-10 years older.

She's big but she outruns and outdribbles most WNBA point guards.

She's pretty but she outrebounds and outmuscles heftier and more, ehem, "masculine" players.

She's 22 year old Candace Parker, the LA Sparks' prized rookie, who has just made history by being the first WNBA player to win both the Rookie of the Year Award as well as the Most Valuable Player award in the same season.

Of course, her offseason goal was to win the WNBA championship and that isn't gonna happen...Still the ROY and MVP awards are pretty good consolation prizes.
