CONGRATULATIONS, ALANA!

This evening Mystics star Alana Beard was named a starter in the WNBA All-Star Game to be held July 25th at Mohegan.

Averaging 19 pts, 3 steals, 2 assists & 4 rebounds per game, AB has certainly been playing at an all-star level this season.

A well deserved honor!

Have fun, AB . . . and bring home a win for the East.
