WNBA All-Rookie Team
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Template:Short description Script error: No such module "Sidebar or footer". The WNBA All-Rookie Team is an annual Women's National Basketball Association (WNBA) honor given since the 2005 WNBA season to the top rookies during the regular season. Voting is conducted by the WNBA head coaches, who are not allowed to vote for players on their own team. Each coach selects five players. A player is given a point for every vote they receive.[1] The top vote getters comprise the team, regardless of the positions they play. Through the 2021 season, this differed from the WNBA's voting procedure for the All-WNBA and All-Defensive Teams, in which all first and second teams consisted of a center, two forwards, and two guards. The WNBA has since adopted the positionless format for its All-WNBA and All-Defensive Teams, respectively adopting the format in 2022 and 2023.[2][3]
The All-Rookie Team is generally composed of a five-woman lineup, but in the case of a tie at the fifth position, the roster is expanded.
Candace Parker of the Los Angeles Sparks was named to the All-Rookie Team and won the WNBA Most Valuable Player Award in the same season. This feat had never before been accomplished.[4] In the NBA, only Wes Unseld and Wilt Chamberlain has held this distinction.
