Before Duke vs. Kentucky - The Lady Cats take on Wofford tonight, prediction, MVP, and how to watch

Prediction

The No. 1 South Carolina Gamecocks will take on the No. 2 Stanford Cardinal in the national championship game on Sunday, April 2. The Gamecocks are the defending champions and are looking to win their second straight title. The Cardinal are making their first appearance in the national championship game since 2012.

The Gamecocks are led by A'ja Wilson, the reigning national player of the year. Wilson is a 6-foot-5 forward who can score inside and out. She is also a strong rebounder and defender.

The Cardinal are led by Alanna Smith, a 6-foot-4 forward who is one of the best shooters in the country. Smith is also a good rebounder and defender.

The game is expected to be a close one. The Gamecocks have the experience of winning a national championship, but the Cardinal are playing with a lot of confidence. I predict that the Gamecocks will win the game, but it will be a close one.

MVP

A'ja Wilson is the most likely player to be named the MVP of the national championship game. She is the best player on the court and is capable of taking over a game. Wilson is also a leader on the team and is always willing to step up in big moments.
