Former USC Trojans All-American and Washington Mystics rookie Kiki Irafen has been named WNBA Rookie of the Month over Paige Bueckers while making league history alongside names like A'ja Wilson and Tina Charles.

The Mystics lost to the Liberty again, but Kiki Iriafen hardly looked like a rookie against modern legend Breanna Stewart.
