-- Original WNBA Player and All-Decade Team Member
Leslie Wins Third Player of the Week Honor this Season--
-- Becomes First WNBA Player to Reach 5,000 Career Points
in Franchise High Win –
NEW YORK, June 26, 2006 – Lisa Leslie of the
Los Angeles Sparks was named WNBA Player of the Week
for games played Monday, June 19 through Sunday, June 25.
This marks the second consecutive week, the third time
this season and the 13th time in her career that the
two-time WNBA MVP has earned the honor. No other player
in league history has garnered more Player of the Week
awards (Indiana’s Tamika Catchings ranks second with eight).
In a 105-80 victory over the visiting San Antonio
Silver Stars on Sunday, June 25, Leslie, the league’s
all-time leading scorer, became the first WNBA player
to reach 5,000 career points. Entering the game with
4,999 career points, Leslie reached the milestone just
53 seconds into the first quarter and didn’t stop there.
The 10th year pro, who was named to the league’s
All-Decade Team on June 13, went on to tally a
career-high 41 points and led the Sparks to a
team-record for points in a single game.
Leslie also finished with 13 rebounds, 3 assists, 3 steals
and was 7-for-9 on free throws and 16-for-23 on field goals.
Following that effort, Silver Stars head coach Dan Hughes
said, "She was vintage Lisa Leslie in every way. She is
having a good year, the best I've ever seen her play."
Her own head coach, Joe Bryant, was even more to the
point saying, “If she's not the greatest player to ever
play, I don't know who is.”
In the Sparks’ three games last week, Leslie averaged
21.3 points, 9 rebounds, 2.7 assists, 2.0 steals and
shot 60 percent (24-for-40) from the field and 82.4
percent (14-for-17) from the free throw line, as the
Sparks posted a perfect 3-0 record.
Los Angeles has won 8 straight games and holds the best
record in the Western Conference (11-3). They are also
the only team in the West that remains undefeated at home (7-0).
Leslie currently leads the league outright in total
points (308), rebounds (142) and field goals made
(117) and is tied for the lead in double-doubles (8).
Other candidates for WNBA Player of the Week were
Detroit’s Cheryl Ford, Houston’s Tina Thompson,
and Sacramento’s Yolanda Griffith.
