As a former MVP and scoring champion, Maya Moore showcasing her offensive talents comes as no surprise to whoever is defending her or watching her play. But after another huge chasedown block, she has put the league on notice about trying to score on her in transition.

Brittany Boyd thought she had an easy layup after Minnesota turned the ball over, but look at Maya track back on defense to deny Boyd before she even had a finish:

This is nothing new for the three-time champion, who may not have gaudy block numbers (0.7 per game) but she is very effective when she does decide to utilize her athleticism in transition defense.

Watch as Moore flies past halfcourt to deny 6-4 rookie phenom Breanna Stewart from making a routine layup:

Another example is when Brianna Kiesel tried to stop and take a floater in transition instead of taking it to the rim against the Lynx:

In all three of these examples, Maya shows off her quickness, timing and jumping ability, leaving the offensive player helpless. The last one illustrates her ability to anticipate the play as she pressures the ball-handler and forces her to pass to Tiffany Mitchell cutting to the basket:

WNBA players would be wise to have their heads on a swivel when trying to score in transition against Maya and the Lynx.
