Naismith Awards

[bballnut90]

POY: Caitlin Clark
DPOY: Aliyah Boston
COY: Dawn Staley

Congrats to all 3, all very well deserved. Some notes:

Boston becomes the first 2x recipient of the Naismith DPOY award since it was implemented in 2018.
Dawn wins her 3rd COY award in the last 4 years. This ties her for third all time with Muffet and Tara. She only trails Geno and Pat.
If Boston returns, we'll have the last 3 Naismith POYs suiting up next year with Bueckers, Boston and Clark all returning. This has never happened before.

I just read that Caitlin Clark has been chosen as the Naismith NPOY over Aliyah Boston, Maddy Siegrist and Elizabeth Kittley.

Along with Paige in '21 and Aliyah last season, that award's got a good thing going with its selections!
