This is nyliberty's first wnba Rookie of the Year award. monyenwere_ did that!
Onyenwere, a Nigerian American and a UCLA alum from Aurora, CO, was selected sixth overall in the 2021 WNBA Draft and appeared in all 32 of New York Liberty's regular-season games, starting in 29 of them. She recorded 12 games with 10 or more points, and her career high was 29 points in a May 29 game against the Atlanta Dream. This is the first time in New York Liberty history that a player from their team has received this Rookie of the Year accolade.
Reflecting back on that conversation, Onyenwere continued with a message to those who doubted her."This is for those who doubted if my game would translate to the professional level. I saw it all, and I hope you see me now too. And if not, it's okay. Keep doubting. It's better that way."
