Angel Reese et Caitlin Clark

Caitlin Clark largely dominated her duel against Angel Reese on Thursday night, unofficially winning the title of rookie of the year.

But the point guard says she is not interested in this award, to which her opponent responded.

Despite the pressure from several media outlets, including a recent very controversial ranking from ESPN, the race for rookie of the year seems to have been over for a long time in the WNBA.

Caitlin Clark has raised the tone with the Fever and is now fighting for a place in the playoffs, while Angel Reese’s Sky are struggling with 5 losses in a row.

The latest one comes from Clark, with a red-hot LeBron James.

With this latest performance, there is no longer any doubt that Clark will be crowned rookie of the year in a few weeks.

She dominates her opponents and wants this place in the playoffs at all costs, in the hope of beating the best.

This is also a priority for the player, just like Reese. The latter confirmed her counterpart’s comments.

Angel Reese says she and Caitlin Clark don’t care about the debate over the rookie of the year: “We don’t care about the rookie of the year… I think you wanted to make it important.”

The two best rookies of the year constantly compared? That’s not surprising, even for the WNBA.

However, criticism has been pouring in on Reese after such a statement, especially when the Sky player gives importance to her statistics.

Whether we’re talking about the game Thursday night where she stayed on the court until the end for a double-double or against the Liberty recently, it’s clear that it’s not just winning that motivates her.

She doesn’t care because she knows she has no chance of winning it.

Easy to say now that it’s clearer than ever. Clark >

The fans are not convinced by Angel Reese’s statement, especially when we see her desire to pile up the statistics on certain games.

It’s another thing for Caitlin Clark, who is clearly having an exceptional season.
