Connecticut Sun forward Alyssa Thomas, who made triple-double history, took second with 439 points . Wilson earned 433 points .
"People didn't do the math, people didn't do their homework," Hammon said before reportedly calling for the votes to be made public. "She put together the greatest individual performance this league has ever seen," Hammon said via the Review-Journal."So when you're talking efficiency, field-goal percentage, rebounding, defense — the whole thing — and it's just a real shame because we're talking about the MVP of the league."
