*** EUROBASKET.COM WOMEN AWARDS 2007 ***


Diana Taurasi was the best player in Europe in 2007

Ann Wauters was the best European player in 2007

Natalia Hejkova was the most successful coach in Europe in 2007

Similarly like last year, here we announce the final results of All-Europe Year End Awards for Women.
The votes were based on the group of Eurobasket correspondents, who provide women basketball coverage. There were 20 basketball experts, who sent their votes. The awards were made in two categories: All-Europe and All-Europeans. All-Europe applies to the players, who played in European leagues in last and this season, so it may apply also to non-European players, who played as imports in Europe. All-Europeans category applies only to Europeans, but also these, who did not play in Europe, only overseas (mostly in WNBA).
The best player in Europe was American Diana Taurasi (182-G-82), who lead Spartak Moscow Region to their best season in the history: double championship in Russian Superleague and Euroleague.
She was followed by her teammate Tina Thompson (188-F-75), who was best scorer in both Euroleague and Russian League.
The third spot went to Belgian Ann Wauters (194-C-80). Wouters was the best scorer of European Championships in Italy as well as best scorer of one of top Women Euroleague teams - CSKA Samara.
Ann Wouters was also voted best European player. The second-best European was another player from CSKA Samara - Spanish Amaya Valdemoro (184-F-76). The third spor went to 2006 superstar (won both categories) Maria Stepanova (202-C-79) of CSKA Moscow (RUS).
