Is there any way you see azzi winning roty over Liv as of rn? I did see someone on Twitter saying Arike put up better numbers her rookie season but Phee had a better percentage and was more efficient/ effective on the court resulting in her getting roty. I think that could apply to Liv and azzi. Liv has better numbers but azzi has better shooting splits + affects her team more on the court.
I am asking as a neutral fan because I love both.
no not right now and if olivia continues doin what sheâs doin w/no injuries or extended time out, she very well could be unanimous roty. her game is translating to the pro level extremely well + great team, great coach. iâm not tryna get on my knees for the lynx or anythin like that but cheryl is also in the running for my coty pick. minny got alot of good things going for them rn and when they start to work phee back into the line up??? the league should be scared chile
Cheryl has coached three rookies of the year (Maya Moore, Napheesa Collier, Crystal Dangerfield). Maya was a generational talent and thus a shoo-in, but I don't remember either Phee or Crystal being a foregone conclusion for ROTY when they were drafted (Crystal was the COVID season so that was just atypical all around, but I also feel like Cheryl also did a great job coaching her up). When Olivia got drafted to the Lynx, my immediate reaction was that she was going to be ROTY under Cheryl. Seems like a real promising start.
