Q McCall		 I gotta go with Michelle Timms from the original Phoenix Mercury. I love point guards, as an original member of the WNBA she was a pioneer, and she played the position with a grit and attitude that was rare at the time.

Close second for me is Tanisha Wright -- also gritty, truly dedicated to her crafty, a great attitude, one of the most versatile basketball players in the world, and still a bit of an underdog outside of Seattle.
