Leslie not only won the MVP award for 2001, she also took home the Finals MVP after helping the Sparks capture their first title on September. 1. Backyard Basketball was released one month later, with Leslie being the only female player in real life (Garnett was only a men's player).

Cooper and Swoopes have been deemed the very first face of the WNBA but it was Leslie who became the first name of the league to the children Backyard Basketball was geared towards, including me. Leslie was the very first WNBA player that I heard of , and who influenced my interest in women's basketball.

From there, my investment in the sport increased slowly. I can remember Diana Taurasi being featured on the cover of Sports Illustrated alongside Emeka Okafor after their UConn Huskies won the national championship in both men's basketball and women's basketball in 2004. Then I became a Sacramento Monarchs fan and watched them in the 2006 WNBA Finals against the Detroit Shock. Since watching Parker in the 2007 national championship game won by the Tennessee Lady Volunteers, I have been very in tune with women's basketball and I started covering the WNBA in 2012.

I began working for Swish Appeal in 2013 and continue to help increase the profile of women's basketball with my coverage. Lisa Leslie's performance in a computer game led children to keep the process of exposure.

Sports Illustrated's choice to highlight the UConn women and the men on its cover, ESPN's coverage of the Monarchs, Shock and Lady Vols as well as me attending the college that promoted the coverage of women's sport all contributed to this cycle. But video games possess a unique power. When you play as someone you truly become a fan as they aid your team to win. I am sure that NBA2K's choice of featuring Parker on their cover will encourage young girls and boys to become lifetime women's basketball followers.
