Seattle’s Jackson selected MVP for third time

4 September 2010 / AP, SEATTLE
Seattle Storm forward Lauren Jackson of Australia was selected the WNBA’s most valuable player for the third time in her career on Thursday.
Jackson was honored before Game 1 of Seattle’s best-of-three Western Conference final against defending champion Phoenix. Also, the Storm’s Brian Agler was named the league’s coach of the year. Jackson, a 6-foot-5 (1.96-meter) forward, averaged 20.5 points and 8.3 rebounds while helping the Storm to a 28-6 record -- tying the league mark for the most wins in a season. “It’s just because of where we are at the moment and the opportunity to do great things this year,” Jackson said. “Especially playing the Western Conference finals, that definitely makes it special.”
