The Lynx aren't playing in the WNBA finals for the first time in four seasons. But they can claim to having more players on the first and second All-WNBA teams than any other team in the league.

The Lynx were led by league MVP Maya Moore, who was the only unanimous pick to the first team by all 38 voters. Moore, the league's leading scorer with 23.9 ppg, was named to the first team for the second straight season.

Lynx guards Lyndsay Whalen and Seimone Augustus were both named to the second team.

Phoenix had two first-team selections - Diana Taurasi, the second-leading vote getter, and center Britney Griner. Candace Parker of Los Angeles and Skylar Diggins of Tulsa rounded out the first team.

Atlanta's Angel McCoughtry, Los Angeles' Nneka Ogwumike and New York's Tina Charles joined Whalen and Augustus on the second team.
