NIHOF WNBA Cup Standings, Week 6, August 21

Welcome back to the WNBA Cup!

In every WNBA regular-season game, we award descending points (5-4-3-2-1) to the top five players.  At the end of the season, the player with the most points will be awarded the Notinhalloffame WNBA Cup. 

However, the winning player must accept their award in person in the Emerald City of Seattle.
