Clark (19.2 ppg, 8.4 apg, 5.7 rpg and 1.3 spg) was adjudged Rookie of the Year by Associated Press for her all-around play throughout their campaign while helping the Fever return to the playoffs after eight years.

Meanwhile, Angel Reese (13.6 ppg, 13.1 rpg, 1.9 apg and 1.3 spg) saw her campaign cut short after she suffered a season-ending wrist injury late in their campaign. But she had alreaedy turned a lot of heads by that time as a bona-fide double-double machine while setting new marks for rebounding along the way.
