Katie Smith · When you have an opportunity to earn a third WNBA championship in a six-year span, it pays to have a player with the winning identity that Katie Smith has. With her team clinging to a two-point lead on the final play of the third quarter and a chance to close out the 2008 WNBA Finals on the line, Smith calls her own number, turning the corner with speed to blow by the San Antonio Silver Stars’ defense for a strong right-handed finish. Smith tallied a game-high 18 points and six rebounds, anchoring a title-clinching 76-60 win on October 5, 2008. This capped off a year that included the Finals MVP, Olympic gold and another WNBA title. · State of Mint · State of Mint
