2017 AWARD WINNER-Kelsey PlumList Item 3
For four years Kelsey has been exactly the kind of ambassador women's basketball needs - she's exciting, she's talented, and most of all, she's driven. You don't become the highest scoring player in the history of the game without putting in the work, off the court, every single day. No one is more deserving of this award because no one has worked harder for it.
Kelsey is the type of player young girls around the world can look up to, and we're all looking forward to seeing what she does next."
