Yummy graduated 8th grade today with overall Hero On The Rise award for #MostImproved in #Math and #ELA. When they introduced him by saying that everyday when he would overcome a challenge, he'd say "yeah this is great, but what does it have to do with my future?" He's the hero of his class, being the only #exceptionalchild #specialneeds student with mainstream math and ELA classes. He's the #underdog that his peers always celebrate when he wins. Yummy is living proof that even with #autism, you can #begreat #againstallodds. The first middle school class of his charter school has graduated. Big up to all the community aunties and uncles who have loved Yummy since he was a baby like their own and have never turned their backs on him. I share this news and his success with you. ❤️ Love, BSK Photo by @andrewthomasclifton (at The GICC - Georgia Int'l Convention Center)

Veronica Burton’s Breakout Year Earns Her WNBA’s Most Improved Player

Veronica Burton of the Golden State Valkyries has leapt from role player to key contributor this season, earning the 2025 WNBA Most Improved Player award by an overwhelming margin. With career highs in nearly every statistical category, Burton’s transformation helped lead an expansion team to its first-ever playoff berth—and reshaped expectations for what she can achieve.

A Transformation in Numbers

Burton’s jump this year wasn’t subtle. She averaged 11.9 points, 6.0 assists, 4.4 rebounds, and 1.1 steals per game, starting all 44 regular-season games for the Valkyries. That’s a sharp contrast to her 2024 season with the Connecticut Sun, where she put up only about 3.1 points, under 2 assists, and around 1.4 rebounds per game. Her improved consistency and expanded role made the difference.

From Fringe Role to Franchise Cornerstone

Before this season, Burton had started only about 20 games in her first three professional seasons. Her journey included being waived, being unprotected in drafts, and fighting for minutes. But Golden State tapped into something special: trusting her as a starter, letting her play through pressure, and giving her opportunity when the team needed a leader—especially after injuries sidelined key pieces.

Clutch Moments & Historic Feats

Two moments stood out: in one game vs. Phoenix Mercury she posted a stat line of at least 24 points, 14 assists, and no turnovers—an elite level of efficiency and ball security rarely seen. She also had multiple games with 10 or more assists and no turnovers, setting a WNBA single-season record. Her scoring, playmaking, and defensive contributions showed up in highlight moments and in consistency night to night.

Leading an Expansion Team to Uncharted Ground

The Golden State Valkyries are in their first season in the WNBA. Expansion teams often struggle to find identity and cohesion early, but Burton’s growth helped move the Valkyries beyond expectations. She started all 44 games, and played a central role as a playmaker, scorer, leader, and glue-person. That level of responsibility can crush some players, but she embraced it. The Valkyries’ 23-21 record and playoff appearance owe much of their momentum to her presence.

What Set Burton Apart Statistically

A leap of over 8 points per game from the previous season

Increased assists and rebounds significantly

Steals and defensive stats also saw marked improvements

Started every game, showing durability, trust from coaches, and reliability under pressure

From Opportunity to Expectation

Burton didn’t just benefit from opportunity—she seized it. With Golden State losing key players to injury, she stepped up. Her playmaking and scoring took on a new dimension. Her leadership both on and off the court drew attention. Coaches and teammates praised her mental toughness: how she handled mistakes, how she pushed through fatigue, how she kept composure when games were tight.

What Her Award Means for Her and the League

For Burton personally, the Most Improved Player award provides validation. It marks a turning point in her career: from being on the fringes to being a foundational piece. Not only for Golden State, but for the WNBA she becomes a model for growth—what happens when a player works hard, gets trust, and shows up consistently.

For the league, her story underscores how depth matters and how expansion teams can compete if they develop talent well. It signals that players who are overlooked early can still emerge as stars, and that statistics and roles can change dramatically with the right fit.

What Comes Next for Veronica Burton

Now the bench-marks have been set: sustaining this level year after year, continuing to polish her shot, her decision-making, and maintaining her health. Opposing defenses will start game-planning specifically for her strengths, so her ability to adapt will be crucial. Also challenging will be matching or building on her historical performances (high-assist, low-turnover, high-scoring games) while carrying team expectations into the off-season and future campaigns.

Veronica Burton’s recognition as the WNBA’s Most Improved Player doesn’t just reflect her own leap—it represents what hard work plus opportunity can produce. She stepped into a bigger role, answered calls, and elevated not just her own game but the trajectory of her team. Her story adds a powerful chapter to the season, and one that sets a high bar going forward.
