Doggydaddy's Den: DoggyDaddy's Dailies 6/6/16

****************************************************************************

Just to let you know, in case you haven't noticed, I am updating my Dailies after the late WNBA games are done. In today's Dailies, I have info from the two completed games and will have an update to the Liberty/Storm game (6 former UConn players) later tonight.

****************************************************************************

Former South Carolina Gamecock, Tiffany Mitchell, is having a great rookie season. She scored 21 points for Indianapolis Sunday, leading them to a big win at Connecticut. In another Stewart-less rookie class, she would be the favorite to win ROY. She is second in average at 15.1, 2nd in MPG at 26.9 and 1.6 steals per game for all rookies and first in FG% for rookie guards.
